Specifications
Additional information
• Do not use damaged, re-shaped or repaired discs. Use of such discs may cause a
malfunction.
• When using an 8 cm disc, insert the disc in the system without an adaptor.
• The audio CD playback feature of this system is designed to conform to the
Compact Disc (CD) standard. Recently, some record companies have started
marketing music discs encoded with copyright protection technologies. Some of
these music discs do not conform to the CD standard and may not be playable on
this system.
• A DualDisc is a dual-sided disc that combines a DVD side and an audio side. Note
that the audio side is not guaranteed to play because this type of disc does not
conform to the specifications required for an audio Compact Disc (CD).
• If a device that is not compatible with the HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection) standard is connected to the system using an HDMI cable, video or
audio cannot be output from the system.
• When you use the AV MULTI OUT connector of the system to connect to a TV,
copyright-protected video from a BD or from video files may be output at
resolutions lower than 1080p. Also, these types of video will be output at
resolutions of 576p or lower if recorded at 1080i (50 Hz) or 720p (50 Hz).
• Audio from Super Audio CDs cannot be output from the system's digital out
(optical) connector.
• CD-DA (audio CD) is output at 48 kHz from the system.
• When playing discs with content that was copied fraudulently, abnormal sounds
may be produced or the content may not play correctly.
• To continuously enjoy playback of copyright-protected BDs, in some cases the
AACS (Advanced Access Control System) key may need to be renewed. To renew
the key, the system must be updated.
• Some discs may not be playable due to scratches, dust, the quality of recording, or
the characteristics of the recording device.
• In rare instances, CDs, DVDs, BDs and other media may not operate properly
when played on the PS3™ system. This is primarily due to variations in the
manufacturing process or encoding of the software.
Region codes
Depending on the disc, a region code that is based on the geographic region where
the disc is distributed may be assigned. This system can play discs marked with the
following region codes.
DVD and PLAYSTATION®3 format software
• When outputting DVD content or PLAYSTATION®3 format software in SD
resolution, only discs recorded in the PAL standard will definitely be playable.
You may not be able to play discs recorded for other standards (such as NTSC) on
this system (unless an NTSC compatible TV is used).
• When playing PLAYSTATION
®3 format software in HD resolution, a TV that
supports video playback at 59.94 Hz is required.
