Before you start
Features
BD-ROM playback
Blu-ray Disc is a next-generation video disc format featuring far
higher disc capacity than conventional DVD. The higher capacity
makes a whole range of new and enhanced features possible, such
as support for high-definition video up to 1920 x 1080 pixels, high
quality, surround sound audio, greater interactivity and richer
content.
BD-ROM discs are commercially produced discs (Video Distribution
format) that can contain movie and other video content, interactive
content, enhanced menu features such as pop-up menus (press
POPUP MENU/MENU during playback for these), full-colour,
high-definition animated buttons and animated menu transition
effects, button sounds (sounds are played when menu buttons are
selected or activated), high-definition bitmap subtitles supporting
full-colour images with frame-accurate animation effects up to full
video frame rate, and so on.
While BD capacity is enough for most applications, the BD-ROM
standard allows for content to be spread across several discs,
removing the limit of one physical disc. Follow the on-screen
instructions during playback when using these special kinds of
discs.

BD-J application

HDMI digital interface
The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) interconnect
provides high quality digital audio and video, all from a single
user-friendly connector. HDMI is the first consumer electronics
interface to support uncompressed standard, enhanced, or
high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel surround
sound audio, all using one interface. You can easily connect to an
HDMI-equipped AV receiver or audio-visual device for high quality
audio and video.
• HDMI, the HDMI logo and High-Definition Multimedia Interface
are trademarks or registered trademarks of HDMI Licensing LLC.

HDMI Control
By connecting this unit to a Pioneer plasma television, AV system
(amplifier or AV receiver etc.), or HD AV Converter with an HDMI
cable, you can control this unit from the connected plasma
television, as well as have the connected plasma television, AV
system or HD AV Converter automatically change inputs in
response to this unit starting playback or having the GUI screen (ex.
Disc Navigator) displayed (known as the Auto-select function). The
connected plasma television can thereby have its power turned from
off to on by this function.
You can also have this unit turn on automatically when you control
this unit from a connected plasma television that is turned on
(Simultaneous power function).
Additionally, when the language information from a connected
plasma television is received, you can have this unit’s on-screen
display language change automatically to that of the plasma
television (only when playback is stopped and GUI screen is not
displayed).
Refer to your plasma television’s operating manual for more
information regarding how your plasma television transmits
language information.
For more information about which operations can be carried out by
connecting via HDMI cable, refer to the operating manual for your
plasma television, AV system or HD AV Converter.

The BD-ROM specification supports Java for interactive content.
The Java specification for BD-ROM is known as BD-J. This allows
content providers to put games and other interactive material linked
to specific titles on to BD-ROM discs. (This player does not support
downloadable BD-J content, direct connection to the Internet or the
retrieval of content through the Internet.)

PureCinema
When you playback film material (24 frames/second) on a BD-ROM
or DVD-Video disc, the progressive scan line automatically converts
the film material to optimum quality (see PureCinema on page 37).

1080/50p, 1080/60p and 1080/24p output video
This player supports a variety of output video resolutions, up to
1080 lines/50 or 60 frames per second, progressive (HDMI only),
making it ideal for playing high-definition Blu-ray Discs.

To power outlet

This is a basic setup that allows you to watch discs on your TV using
just the cables supplied.
Important
• This player is equipped with copy protection technology. Do not
connect this player to your TV via a VCR using AV cables, as the
picture from this player will not appear properly on your TV. (This
player may also not be compatible with some combination TV/
VCRs for the same reason; refer to the manufacturer for more
information.)
• Do not unplug the player from the power outlet while it is
switched on.
• Do not plug this player into a switched power supply found on
some amplifiers and AV receivers.
1 Connect the VIDEO OUT and one pair of AUDIO OUT (2ch)
jacks to a set of audio/video inputs on your TV.
Use the supplied red/white stereo audio and yellow video cables.
Make sure you match up the left and right audio outputs with their
corresponding inputs for correct stereo sound.
See Using other types of video output below if you want to use a
different type of connection.
2 Connect the supplied AC power cord to the AC IN inlet,
then plug into a power outlet.

10
En

Using other types of video output
This player has standard (composite), S-Video and component video
outputs, as well as an HDMI connector (for digital video/audio).
In order to be able to watch HD (high definition) BDs at their full
resolution, you should connect the player to your TV using either the
component video output, or (even better) the HDMI output.
An HDMI connection will additionally give you HD output when
watching DVDs.
If your display has neither of these connection types, an S-Video jack
is also provided, which should give slightly better video quality than
using the standard video output.

Connecting for HDMI output
If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped monitor or
display, you can connect it to this player using the supplied HDMI
cable.
The HDMI connector outputs uncompressed digital video, as well as
most digital audio formats.
Important
• This unit has been designed to be compliant with HDMI
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface). Depending on the
component you have connected, using a DVI connection may
result in unreliable signal transfers.
• If you change the display connected to the HDMI output, you will
also need to change the output video resolution settings to
match the new display (see Changing the output video resolution
on page 12 to do this).
• The HDMI connection is compatible with 8-channel linear PCM
signals (44.1 kHz to 192 kHz1, 16 bit/20 bit/24 bit), Dolby Digital,
Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD High Resolution
Audio and DTS (5.1 channel signals) bitstreams.
• Depending on the HDMI cable being used, 1080p output may
not appear correctly (The supplied HDMI cable is capable of
outputting 1080p video).
• If you connect a DVI device to the HDMI output of this player,
ensure that it is compliant with High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP). If you choose to connect to a DVI connector,
you will need a separate adaptor (DVIHDMI) to do so. A DVI
connection, however, does not support audio signals. Consult
your local audio dealer for more information.
• Use an HDMI cable (supplied) to connect the HDMI OUT
interconnect on this player to an HDMI interconnect on an
HDMI-compatible display.

To HDMI
interconnect

After switching on the player you may need to set the output video
resolution and HDMI colour space for compatibility with your
display. See Changing the output video resolution on page 12 and
HDMI Color Space in Using the Initial Setup menu on page 39.

02

About HDMI
HDMI supports both standard and high-definition video, plus
standard and multi-channel surround-sound audio. HDMI features
include uncompressed digital video, one connector (instead of
several cables and connectors), and communication between the
AV source and AV devices such as DTVs.
HDMI was developed to provide the technologies of High-bandwidth
Digital Content Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface
(DVI) in one specification. HDCP is used to protect digital content
transmitted and received by DVI-compliant displays.

About HDMI Control
You can enable HDMI Control by turning the HDMI Control setting
to On for all components connected via HDMI cable. Check the
video output from this unit once you have completed making
connections and settings for all components. You will need to check
the video output each time you change connected components or
remove the HDMI cable.
If you want to use an HDMI cable other than the supplied HDMI
cable, use the one that supports the HDMI 1.3 specification
(Category 2) or later. The HDMI Control functions may not operate
properly if you do not use an HDMI cable that supports the HDMI 1.3
specification (Category 2) or later.

Connecting using the component video
output
You can use the component video output instead of the standard
video out jack to connect this player to your TV (or other equipment).
• Use a component video cable (not supplied) to connect the
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT jacks to a component video input on
your TV, monitor or AV receiver.
Be careful to match up the colours of the three jacks for correct
connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
• Why won’t the disc I loaded play?
First check that you loaded the disc the right way up (label side
up), and that it’s clean and not damaged. See Taking care of your
player and discs on page 44 for information on cleaning discs.
If a disc loaded correctly won’t play, it’s probably an
incompatible format or disc type. See Disc/content format
playback compatibility on page 7 for more on disc compatibility.
• There’s no picture!
Your TV is probably not compatible with the selected video
output resolution. Check your TV for compatibility with
progressive scan video and higher resolutions. Press the
OUTPUT RESOLUTION button to switch the video output. See
also Changing the output video resolution on page 12.
• I can’t see any picture, or get high definition video output when
playing some BDs!
When playing some discs, there may be no composite video,
S-Video and/or component video output, or high-definition
content may be converted to standard-definition 576i/480i or
576p/480p component output. This is for content protection. To
view the disc, connect the player to an HDMI-compatible
display. See Connecting for HDMI output on page 11.
• I have a widescreen TV so why are there black bars at the top and
bottom of the screen when I play some discs?
Some movie formats are such that even when played on a
widescreen TV, black bars appear at the top and bottom of the
screen. This is not a malfunction.
• I’ve connected to a HDMI/DVI compatible component but I can’t
get any signal and the front panel HDMI indicator won’t light!
Make sure that you’ve selected this player as the HDMI input in
the settings for the component you’re using. You may need to
refer to the instruction manual of the component to do this.
An HDMI connection can only be made with other HDMI
components, or a High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP)-compatible DVI component. See Connecting for HDMI
output on page 11 for more on HDMI compatibility.
• There’s no picture from the HDMI output!
Make sure the output resolution of this player matches that of
the component you have connected using HDMI. See Changing
the output video resolution on page 12.
• Why is the playback sample rate of the DVD only 48 kHz instead of
96 kHz?
Playback sample rate of the audio is downsampled to 48 kHz.

24
En

• My AV receiver is definitely compatible with 96 kHz Linear PCM
audio, but it doesn’t seem to work with this player. What’s wrong?
192 kHz/96 kHz BD and 96 kHz DVD discs only output digital
audio downsampled to 48 kHz through the optical and coaxial
outputs.
96 kHz 7.1ch BD discs only output digital audio downsampled to
48 kHz through HDMI output when video output is 576i/480i or
576p/480p over HDMI. These are not malfunctions.
• Why is the mono audio on some discs rather quiet compared to
other discs?
When mono audio is split into the L and R channels, there may
be a small loss of volume.
• There’s no sound when connected using HDMI!
You won’t hear any sound from the HDMI output if your
component is only DVI/HDCP-compatible.
• I can’t connect to my local area network!
First of all check the settings of the media server you’re using.
Make sure that if you made the network settings automatically
on this player then you also select auto setup on the server.
(Likewise, if you made the settings manually on the server, you
should set up this player manually.)

Using the Home Media Gallery
Introduction
The Home Media Gallery allows you to browse and play movies,
music and photos stored on media servers connected on an
identical Local Area Network (LAN) as the player. This unit allows for
the playing of files stored on the following:
• PCs running Microsoft Windows XP with Windows Media
Connect installed
• PCs running Microsoft Windows Vista or XP with Windows
Media Player 11 installed
• DLNA-compatible digital media servers (on PCs or other
components)

About network playback
The network playback function of this unit uses the following
technologies:

Windows Media Player 11/Windows Media Connect
See About Windows Media Player 11/Windows Media Connect on
page 36 for details.

The Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) is a cross-industry
organization of consumer electronics, computing industry and
mobile device companies. Digital Living provides consumers with
easy sharing of digital media through a wired or wireless network in
the home.
The DLNA certification logo makes it easy to find products that
comply with the DLNA Interoperability Guidelines. This unit
complies with DLNA Interoperability Guidelines v1.0.
When a PC running DLNA server software or other
DLNA-compatible device is connected to this player, some setting
changes of software or other devices may be required. Please refer
to the operating instructions for the software or device for more
information.
• DLNA and DLNA CERTIFIEDTM are trademarks and/or service
marks of Digital Living Network Alliance.

Content playable over a network
Even when encoded in a compatible format, some files may not play
correctly. See File compatibility on page 7. Some functions may not
be supported depending on the server type or version used.
Supported file formats vary by server. As such, files not supported by
your server are not displayed on this unit.
For more information check with the manufacturer of your server.

Windows Media DRM
Microsoft Windows Media Digital Rights Management (WMDRM) is

About playback behavior over a network
• Playback may stall when the PC is switched off or any media
files stored on it are deleted while playing content.
• If there are problems within the network environment (heavy
network traffic, etc.) content may not be displayed or played
properly (playback may be interrupted or stalled). For best
performance, a 100BASE-TX connection between player and PC
is recommended.
• Playback performance will vary with the power and condition
(seek time of the hard disk, etc.) of the PC being used.
• If several clients are playing simultaneously, as the case may be,
playback is interrupted or stalled.
• Depending on the security software installed on a connected PC
and the setting of such software, network connection may be
blocked.
• Problems with the PC may cause malfunctions.
Pioneer is not responsible for any malfunction of the player and/or
the Home Media Gallery features due to communication error/
malfunctions associated with your network connection and/or your
PC, or other connected equipment. Please contact your PC
manufacturer or Internet service provider.

About the network settings
This unit uses DHCP and Auto IP functionality to make all the
network settings automatically.

With this software, you can play back files stored on the PC through
various devices wherever you like in your home.
At this time you cannot download the Windows Media Connect
software from Microsoft’s website. If your server currently does not
have Windows Media Connect installed, install Windows Media
Player 11 (for Windows XP) instead. This software can be
downloaded from Microsoft’s website.
For more information check the official Microsoft website.

In order to be able to browse and play files from a server this player
must be authorized or registered. This happens automatically when
the player makes a connection over the network to the server. If not,
please authorize or register this player manually on the server.
For more information on authorizing this player, refer to the
instruction manual of your server.
FAQ

media, and you may continue to browse through the folders and play
media while this list completes. When this player has finished
compiling this list, the All Movies, All Photos or All Songs options
will no longer be grayed out, and you will be able to select these and
continue navigating as described in this chapter:
If you are not presented with a folders menu as described above, this
means that this player has finished compiling a list of available
media on your media servers, and you can navigate through the
Movie, Photo or Music Navigator screens as described in this
manual.

Changing content on your Media Server
If you change the available content on your media server (by adding
or removing shared files) while you are in the Movie, Photo or Music
Navigators, the Movie, Photo or Music Navigator screen you are on

Additional information
Taking care of your player and discs

Damaged and odd-shaped discs

Handling discs

Discs spin at high speed inside the player. If you can see that a disc
is cracked, chipped, warped, or otherwise damaged, don’t risk using
it in your player — you could end up damaging it.

When holding discs of any type, take care not to leave fingerprints,
dirt or scratches on the disc surface. Hold the disc by its edge or by
the center hole and edge.
Damaged or dirty discs can affect playback performance. Take care
also not to scratch the label side of the disc. Although not as fragile
as the recorded side, scratches can still result in a disc becoming
unusable.
Should a disc become marked with fingerprints, dust, etc., clean
using a soft, dry cloth, wiping the disc lightly from the center to the
outside edge as shown in the diagram below.

This player is designed for use with conventional, fully circular discs
only. Use of shaped discs is not recommended for this product.
Pioneer disclaims all liability arising in connection with the use of
shaped discs.
Do not use any kind of adapter when playing 8 cm DVD discs. This
size disc can be played in this player without an adapter; just use the
smaller disc guide in the disc tray.

Wipe lightly from the center of the disc using straight strokes.

Cleaning the pickup lens
The player’s lens should not become dirty in normal use, but if for
some reason it should malfunction due to dust or dirt, consult your
nearest Pioneer-authorized service center. Although lens cleaners
for DVD players are commercially available, we advise against using
them since some may damage the lens.

Don’t wipe the disc surface using circular strokes.
If necessary, use a cloth soaked in alcohol, or a commercially
available DVD/BD cleaning kit to clean a disc more thoroughly.
Never use benzine, thinner or other cleaning agents, including
products designed for cleaning vinyl records.

Storing discs
Although BD and DVD discs are more durable than vinyl records,
you should still take care to handle and store discs correctly. When
you’re not using a disc, return it to its case and store upright. Avoid
leaving discs in excessively cold, humid, or hot environments
(including under direct sunlight).
Don’t glue paper or put stickers onto the disc, or use a pencil,
ball-point pen or other sharp-tipped writing instrument. These could
all damage the disc.

For more detailed care information see the instructions that come
with discs.
Do not load more than one disc into the player at a time.

44
En

Problems with condensation
Condensation may form inside the player if it is brought into a warm
room from outside, or if the temperature of the room rises quickly.
Although the condensation won’t damage the player, it may
temporarily impair its performance. For this reason you should leave
it to adjust to the warmer temperature for about an hour before
switching on and using.

Hints on installation
We want you to enjoy using this product for years to come, so please
bear in mind the following points when choosing a suitable location
for it:

Do...
• Use in a well-ventilated room.
• Place on a solid, flat, level surface, such as a table, shelf or
stereo rack.

Don’t...
• Use in a place exposed to high temperatures or humidity,
including near radiators and other heat-generating appliances.
• Place on a window sill or other place where the player will be
exposed to direct sunlight.
• Use in an excessively dusty or damp environment.
• Place directly on top of an amplifier, or other component in your
stereo system that becomes hot in use.
• Place the player on top of or immediately next to the television or
monitor as you may experience interference.
• Use in a kitchen or other room where the player may be exposed
to smoke or steam.
• Use on a thick rug or carpet, or cover with cloth — this may
prevent proper cooling of the unit.
• Place on an unstable surface, or one that is not large enough to
support all four of the unit’s feet.

Moving the player
If you need to move this unit, first remove the disc, if there’s one
loaded, and close the disc tray. Next, press  STANDBY/ON to
switch the power to standby, checking that the power off indication
in the display goes off. Wait at least 10 seconds. Lastly, disconnect
the power cord.
Never lift or move the unit during playback — discs rotate at a high
speed and may be damaged.

Screen sizes and disc formats

09

BD-ROM and DVD-Video discs come in several different screen
aspect ratios, ranging from TV programmes, which are generally 4:3,
to CinemaScope widescreen movies, with an aspect ratio of up to
about 7:3.
Televisions, too, come in different aspect ratios; ‘standard’ 4:3 and
‘widescreen’ 16:9.

Widescreen TV users
If you have a widescreen TV, the TV Aspect Ratio setting (page 39)
of this player should be set to 16:9 (Widescreen).
When you watch discs recorded in 4:3 format, you can use the TV
controls to select how the picture is presented. Your TV may offer
various zoom and stretch options; see the instructions that came
with your TV for details.
Please note that some movie aspect ratios are wider than 16:9, so
even though you have a widescreen TV, these discs will still play in
a ‘letter box’ style with black bars at the top and bottom of the
screen.

Standard TV users
If you have a standard TV, the TV Aspect Ratio setting (page 39) of
this player should be set to 4:3 (Standard).

Resetting the player
Use this procedure to reset all the player’s settings to the factory
default.
1

Make sure that the player is turned on.

2

Press  to stop playback when a disc is being played back.

3

Press and hold  and press  STANDBY/ON.
• Use the control buttons on the front panel.
• The player turns off with all settings reset.

Caution for when the unit is installed in a rack with a
glass door
Do not press the  OPEN/CLOSE button on the remote control to
open the disc table while the glass door is closed. The door will
hamper movement of the disc table, and the disc table could be
damaged.

Setting up the remote to control your TV
1 Input the manufacturer code.
While holding down the TV CONTROL  button, input the two digit
code from the table below that corresponds to the make of your TV.
For example, if you have a Pioneer TV, press and hold TV CONTROL ,
then press 0, 0 on the remote control.

2 Confirm that the TV is responding to the programmed
code.
On the remote, press the TV CONTROL  button. If the TV switches
on (or into standby if it was on previously), then you have the correct
code.
If nothing happens when you press the TV CONTROL  button,
start again from step 1 using a different code. Some manufacturers
have several codes. Try each one until you find the one that works.

TV Preset code list
Please note that there are cases where only certain functions may be controllable after assigning the proper preset code, or the codes for
the manufacturer in the list will not work for the model that you are using.

Glossary
Analog audio
An electrical signal that directly represents sound. Compare this to
digital audio which can also be an electrical signal, but is an indirect
representation of sound. See also Digital audio.

Aspect ratio
The width of a TV screen relative to its height. Conventional TVs are
4:3 (in other words, the screen is almost square); widescreen
models are 16:9 (the screen is almost twice as wide as it is high).

BD-J
BD-J is the Java specification for BD-ROM, allowing content
providers to put interactive material linked to specific titles on the
disc.

Dolby Digital Plus delivers multi-channel audio programs of up to
7.1 channels and supports multiple programs in a single encoded
bitstream with the maximum bit rate potential of 6 Mbps and the
maximum bit rate performance of 1.7 Mbps on BD, and it outputs
Dolby Digital bitstreams for playback on existing Dolby Digital
systems. Dolby Digital Plus can accurately reproduce the sound
originally intended by directors and producers.
It also features multi-channel sound with discrete channel output,
interactive mixing and streaming capability in advanced systems.

BDAV is one of the application formats used by writable Blu-ray
Discs (BD-R or BD-RE). It corresponds to the VR mode of the DVD
standard.

Supported by HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface), a singlecable digital connection is possible for high-definition audio and
video.

BDMV

Dolby TrueHD

BDMV is one of the Blu-ray Disc standards (application standard for
BD-ROM). It corresponds to the Video mode of the DVD standard.

Dolby TrueHD is the next-generation lossless encoding technology
developed for high-definition optical discs in the upcoming era.

Default Gateway

Dolby TrueHD delivers tantalizing sound that is bit-for-bit identical to
the studio master, unlocking the true high-definition entertainment
experience on high-definition optical discs in the next generation.

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Server
A DHCP server is a server that allocates IP addresses to hosts
(network devices). In most cases, a broadband router serves as a
DHCP server in a home network.

Digital audio
An indirect representation of sound by numbers. During recording,
the sound is measured at discrete intervals by an analog-to-digital
converter, generating a stream of numbers. On playback, a
digital-to-analog converter generates an analog signal based on
these numbers. See also Sampling frequency and Analog audio.

En

Dolby Digital Plus is the next-generation audio technology for all
high-definition programming and media. It combines the efficiency
to meet future broadcast demands with the power and flexibility to
realize the full audio potential expected in the upcoming highdefinition era. Built on Dolby Digital, the multi-channel audio
standard for BD and DVD, Dolby Digital Plus has been designed for
the next-generation AV Systems (amplifier or AV receiver) but
remains fully compatible with all current AV Systems.

BDAV

Default Gateway is a node on a computer network that serves as an
access point to another network. A default gateway (such as a
computer and router) is used to forward all traffic that is not
addressed to a station within the local subnet.

52

Dolby Digital Plus

When coupled with high-definition video, Dolby TrueHD offers an
unprecedented home theater experience with stunning sound and
high-definition picture.
It supports bit rates of up to 18 Mbps and records up to 8 full-range
channels individually with 24-bit/96 kHz audio. It also features
extensive metadata including dialogue normalization and dynamic
range control. Supported by HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia
Interface), a single-cable digital connection is possible for highdefinition audio and video. BD standards currently limit their
maximum number of audio channels to eight, whereas Dolby Digital
Plus and Dolby TrueHD support more than eight audio channels.

DRM (Digital Rights Management)
DRM is one of several technologies that controls access to and use
of digital data, such as music, movies and other copyrighted
contents.

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio

Progressive scan video

DTS-HD High Resolution Audio provides sound quality which far
outpaces that of the current DVD discs with constant data rates
from 1.5 Mbps to 6.0 Mbps for Blu-ray Disc. DTS-HD High
Resolution Audio is capable of up to 7.1 channels of audio at a
sampling frequency of 96 kHz/24 bits so the original sound is finely
and faithfully reproduced with less disc space compared to DTS-HD
Master Audio. The result of using DTS-HD High Resolution Audio
use is especially significant when watching high definition video as
the sound that is clearer than ever creates the whole new movie
experience right at home.

Also called non-interlaced video, this method of displaying a picture
updates all the lines in one pass, resulting in a more stable,
flicker-free image than interlaced video (for a given scanning rate).
See also Interlaced video.

Dynamic range
The difference between the quietest and loudest sounds possible in
an audio signal (without distorting or getting lost in noise). Dolby
Digital and DTS soundtracks are capable of a very wide dynamic
range, delivering dramatic cinema-like effects.

Ethernet
A frame-based computer networking technology for local area
networks (LANs). This player supports 100BASE-TX.

File extension
A tag added to the end of a filename to indicate the type of file. For
example, “.jpg” indicates an JPEG image file.

HDMI

09

Regions (DVD-Video and BD-ROM)
These associate discs and players with particular areas of the world.
This unit will only play discs that have a compatible region code (i.e.,
the same code as your player). You can find the region code of your
unit by looking on the rear panel. Some discs are compatible with
more than one region (or all regions).
Note that the region systems for DVD and BD are not the same.

Sampling frequency
The rate at which sound is measured to be turned into digital audio
data. The higher the rate, the better the sound quality, but the more
digital information is generated. For example, a sampling frequency
of 44.1 kHz means 44 100 samples (measurements) per second. See
also Digital audio.

Subnet mask
The IP address is divided into the network address part and the host
address part. The subnet mask is expressed as ‘255.255.255.0’. In
most cases, the subnet mask is automatically assigned by the
DHCP server.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a high-speed digital
interface which has the capability to support standard or
high-definition video plus standard to multi-channel
surround-sound audio on a single digital connection.

Interactive audio
Interactive audio is Linear PCM (LPCM) audio activated by a
BD-ROM application and mixed with the primary audio. It is typically
used to provide dynamic sounds associated with interactive
applications, such as button sounds.

Interlaced video
A method of displaying a picture in which odd-numbered lines are
updated in one pass, then even-numbered lines updated in the next.
See also Progressive scan video.

IP (Internet Protocol) address
A unique number that devices use in order to identify and
communicate with each other on a network utilizing the Internet
Protocol standard, such as ‘192.168.0.1’. No duplicate numbers are
allowed in the network.

LAN cable
A cable that has an 8-pin modular plug on each end and is different
from a telephone plug which has 4-pins.

MAC (Media Access Control) address
An address attached to the port of any device. The MAC address
cannot be changed.

PCM (Pulse Code Modulation)
A common system of encoding digital audio. Excellent quality, but
requires a lot of data compared to formats such as Dolby Digital and
MPEG audio. For compatibility with digital audio recorders and AV
amplifiers with digital inputs, this unit can convert Dolby Digital,
DTS and MPEG audio to PCM. See also Digital audio.

Pop-up menu (BD only)
A context-sensitive menu that can be used without interrupting
playback of a BD.

[GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE]
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to
guarantee your freedom to share and change free software – to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of
the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is
covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the
software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate
to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make
sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify
the software.
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software
is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others
will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain
patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone’s free use or not
licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of
this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the Program” means either the Program or
any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or
translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is
not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made
by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to
the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed
as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most
ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that
you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License.
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to
print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must
be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to
control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2
above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above
on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source
distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a
medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for
noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b
above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means
all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source
or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source
code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object
code.
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or
rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program
or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work
based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the
Program or works based on it.
Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights
granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed
on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all
those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from
distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the
section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section
has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have
made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to
the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder
who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is
permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar
in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”,
you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission.
For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our
decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software
generally.

09

NO WARRANTY
11.BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS” WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD
THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS
OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO
OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which
everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of
warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

Copyright ©  
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software
Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin
Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type ‘show w’. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under
certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may
be called something other than ‘show w’ and ‘show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items – whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if necessary. Here is
a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program ‘Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.

Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider
it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of
this License.

Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses are intended to
guarantee your freedom to share and change free software – to make sure the software is free for all its users. This license, the Lesser General Public License,
applies to some specially designated software packages – typically libraries – of the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can
use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular
case, based on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom
to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the
software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights. These restrictions
translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you. You must make sure
that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they
can relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights. We
protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by someone else and passed
on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author’s reputation will not be affected by problems that might
be introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively restrict the users
of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license obtained for a version of the library must
be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General Public License,
applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to permit
linking those libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a combined work, a derivative
of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser
General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.
We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License because it does Less to protect the user’s freedom than the ordinary General Public License. It also
provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary
General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a de-facto standard.
To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the same job as widely used non-free
libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free software. For example,
permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU
Linux operating system.
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked with the Library
has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a “work based on the library”
and a “work that uses the library”. The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be combined with the library in order to run.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized party
saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each licensee is addressed as “you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some of
those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the Library” means either
the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications
and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modification”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the source code
for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program using
the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent of the use
of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to
the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such modifications
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a)

d)

The modified work must itself be a software library.
You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.
You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as an
argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply such
function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful. (For example, a function in a library to compute
square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied
function or table used by this function must be optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole must
be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to
control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you must alter
all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer version
than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other
change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies and
derivative works made from that copy. This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a library.
You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and
2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of
Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the
same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object
code.
A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is called a
“work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this License.
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions of the
Library), rather than a “work that uses the library”. The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution of such
executables.
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work of the
Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself
a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or less
in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object code plus
portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing
that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.
As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with the Library to produce a work containing portions
of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modification of the work for the customer’s own use and
reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You
must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among
them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever changes were used in the work
(which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete machine-readable
“work that uses the Library”, as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce a modified executable
containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to
recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library already
present on the user’s computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version of
the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection 6a, above, for a charge
no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specified materials from
the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library” must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the executable
from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself
accompanies the executable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany the operating
system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you distribute.
9. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered by this
License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library facilities is
otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be distributed
under the terms of the Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the accompanying
uncombined form of the same work.
10.You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,
modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have
received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
11.You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Library or
its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library (or any work
based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library
or works based on it.
12.Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of
the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
13.If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed
on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this
License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a
consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those
who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution
of the Library. If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to
apply, and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section
has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have
made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to
the author donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
14.If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who
places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted
only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.
15.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be
similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”,
you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
16.If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the author to ask
for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions
for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and
reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY
17.BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY “AS IS” WITHOUT
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE
LIBRARY PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
18.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY
MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS
OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE
WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that everyone can redistribute
and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion
of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

Copyright ©  
This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published by the Free Software
Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU Lesser General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin
Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the library, if necessary. Here is a
sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library ‘Frob’ (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.
, 1 April 1990
Ty Coon, President of Vice
That’s all there is to it!
