    Alert Description:

    To enable the BD-Live function of your BDP-BX1 Blu-ray Disc it is necessary to update the firmware to version 010 or higher.

    Notes:
    • BD-Live allows you to enjoy additional content and services while playing a BD-Live capable disc.
    • For optimal performance, we recommend that you use a Broadband Internet connection to access BD-Live content and services.
    • BD-Live content and services require external USB flash memory (sold separately) for local storage.

    Check the Current Firmware Version

    1. Power on the television and make sure it is tuned to the inputs to which the Blu-ray Disc™ player is connected.
    2. Power on the Blu-ray Disc player.
    3. If the player starts to play a disc, press the "STOP" button and wait until the xross media bar™ menu is displayed on the television before proceeding.
    4. Use the arrow keys on the remote control to select "Setup" – "System Settings", and then press the ENTER button.
    5. Use the arrow keys to select "System Information", and then press the ENTER button.
    6. The firmware version currently installed on the Blu-ray Disc player will be listed on the television screen.
      Firmware Version
      If the last three digits of the version number are 010 or higher, your Blu-ray Disc player has already been updated to a firmware version that supports BD-Live functions.
