Blu-ray Disc™Guide

What is Blu-ray Disc™Media?

Blu-ray Disc™ media (BD), is a revolutionary new media format

developed by a group of the world’s leading consumer electronics,

personal computer, and media manufacturers.

The Blu-ray format was developed to meet the entertainment and

storage demands of the “High Definition” era that the entire world

is rapidly moving to embrace. Blu-ray technology brings to market

a new high definition media, which can not only store high

definition video, but also high definition audio. In addition, Blu-ray

Disc media have the storage capacity for enormous amounts of

data.

Benefits of Blu-ray Technology

The benefits of Blu-ray technology include:

Simplicity

Blu-ray technology makes the task of choosing which basic media

type to use easy with only three different formats to choose from.

They include:

•BD-R (Blu-ray Disc Recordable) - Recordable format for HD

video recording and PC data storage.

•BD-RE (Blu-ray Disc Re-writable) - Rewritable format for HD

video recording and PC data storage.

•BD-ROM (Blu ray Disc Read Only Memory) - Read only format

for HD movies, music, software, games, etc.

These discs are available with a storage capacity of 25 GB1(single

layer) and 50 GB1 (dual layer).

Storage Capacity

The chart below clearly demonstrates the enormous storage

capacity of a Blu-ray Disc when compared to CDs and DVDs.

Blu-ray Disc offers five times the capacity of DVDs without

compromising quality.

Note: Blu-ray Disc™ storage capacity totals are for high-definition

content.

Media

BD Dual Layer 50 GB

BD 25 GB

DVD Dual Layer 8.5 GB

DVD 4.7 GB

CD 700 MB

Storage Capacity1

What does this mean for me?

The limited capacity of DVDs results in video and audio files being

compressed to fit on a disc. This causes a quality reduction in the

picture and/or sound. The greater capacity of BD discs allows for

pristine picture quality and virtually full spectrum audio.

Compatibility

Blu-ray Disc™ offers a convergence of technology and

compatibility among a new generation of high definition movies,

video players, video recorders, personal computers, and gaming

systems.

And what about your current library of DVDs and CDs? The

Blu-ray Disc generation of home entertainment products will be

backward-compatible with your CDs, DVDs, and other optical disc

formats.

Flexibility and Interactivity

The technology built into each Blu-ray disc gives you, and industry

professionals creating high definition content, the tools to create a

viewing experience that up until now has not been possible for

home entertainment. For example:

• Multiple video layers can now be on the screen at the same

time. A presentation layer, customizable by a studio, allows the

content creator to place graphics on the screen on top of the

video or alongside it. Sitting on top of that layer is the Blu-ray

navigation layer that will allow you to interact with the menu

while the video is playing.

• Support for Java applications allows the video layer to be

re-sizable providing even greater flexibility. Imagine the

possibility of watching a movie and playing an interactive game

related to the movie—all at the same time.

What do I need to experience Blu-ray

technology?

To fully appreciate Blu-ray’s video and audio output capabilities2,

you would need the following:

TV / Monitor

For the best experience and output to a HD TV or monitor (HDCP

monitor), do the following:

• Output to a high definition television/monitor using HDMI or

DVI-D3connection.

• Use a Blu-ray Disc player. (See the program “InterVideo®

WinDVD®BD for VAIO®” included with your computer.)

Audio

For the best experience and output to an audio system, do the

following:

• Use a high-quality A/V receiver or sound decoder device with a

quality set of 5.1 or 7.1 surround sound speakers.

Note: Your VAIO®computer comes equipped with a HDMI™ or

DVI-D HDCP connection, depending on the model you purchased.

Note: If your computer has HDMI output, use HDMI to your TV/

monitor as the sound source. Otherwise, use the S/PDIF output.

Notes

• The content of certain Blu-ray Disc™ movies may require a

HDCP compliant monitor. If your TV/monitor has a HDMI™

connection, it should support the HDCP content protection

functionality.

• If you connect to your TV/monitor using DVI, check your

display’s user manual to see if it is HDCP compliant.

• Analog connections such as Composite and S-Video are able

to output BD content, but only at standard definition resolutions.

• Higher capacity analog connections, such as VGA, are able to

output BD content, but may be limited to a lower quality if the

disc manufacturer limits the video resolution for non-HDCP

compliant displays.

• To maximize picture quality of Blu-ray Disc recorded content on

compatible external displays, Sony recommends setting the

display resolution to 1080p or 720p and disabling dual display

mode.

• When powering your VAIO notebook computer with a battery,

the power management features of the system can limit CPU

and video functions, interrupt tasks with warning messages, or

may cause the system to suspend or hibernate before tasks are

completed. Therefore, Sony recommends that you use your AC

adapter for demanding tasks like burning data to DVD or Blu-

ray Disc media, playback of Blu-ray Disc recorded content, and

high end graphic functions such as 3D rendering to maximize

display quality and to avoid possible disruption of operations.

Blu-ray Disc Compatible Programs

Sony has included three Blu-ray Disc compatible software

programs to the VAIO®package of factory-installed software for
