device Name
The Device Name function allows you to

Bd-Live Internet Connection
Set to allow or prohibit an Internet
connection when you use the BD-LIVE
service.
● Allow (All) : The Internet connection is
allowed for all BD-LIVE contents.
● Allow (Valid Only) : The Internet
connection is allowed only for BD-LIVE
contents containing a valid certificate.
● prohibit : No Internet connection is
allowed for any BD-LIVE content.
✎ NOTES
■ What is a valid certificate?
When the player uses BD-LIVE to
send the disc data and a request
to the server to certify the disc, the
server uses the transmitted data to
check if the disc is valid and sends
the certificate back to the player.
■
The Internet connection may be
restricted while you are using BD-
LIVE contents.
