Important notes about HD DVD
HD DVD with high-definition content required for HD viewing. Viewing high-definition content and up-
converting DVD content may require an HDCP capable DVI or HDMI input on your display device. Up-
conversion of DVD content will result in near HD picture quality. Firmware update may be required for some
interactive features depending on content, which may also require an always-on broadband internet
connection. Some features may require additional bandwidth. Some recordable media may not be
supported. Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD and DTS support for up to 5.1 channels (DTS HD support
for DTS core only) MP3/WMA audio files not supported. HDMI audio support for PCM only. Because HD
DVD is a new format that makes use of new technologies, certain disc, digital connection and other
compatibility and/or performance issues are possible. This may, in rare cases, include disc freezing while
accessing certain disc features or functions, or certain parts of the disc not playing back or operating as
fully intended. Some features subject to delayed availability. While every effort has been made at the time
of publication to ensure the accuracy of the information provided herein, product specifications, configurations,

Notes on web-enabled network content
Certain HD DVD discs may contain or have the capability of downloading studio-provided, web-enabled
network content. To minimize any potential compatibility and/or connectivity issues, before viewing such
content, it is recommended that you perform the firmware update process to ensure that your HD DVD
player is using the latest firmware version. Do not unplug or turn off the player when downloading studio-
provided, web-enabled network content. Doing so may cause data stored in the player’s persistent storage
to be lost.
