  • QuestionHow easy is this unit to adapt to a Logitech Harmony 665 remote? How does one program this unit to the remote?

    Asked by Guy.

    • Answer Hi Guy, Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Sony BDP-S1700U. When it comes to using this Blu-ray player with a universal remote like the Logitech Harmony 665, the setup process typically involves following the specific instructions and using the established device codes provided by Logitech in their user manual or through their programming software. While Sony devices often share standard infrared command sets, we must note that full functionality and compatibility are not guaranteed when using third-party universal remotes. We suggest consulting the documentation provided with your Harmony 665 or contacting Logitech support to ensure they have the specific profile for this model in their database. Thank you for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

  • QuestionIs this a region free dvd player?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi there, Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Sony BDP-S1700U. This model is not a region-free player, as Sony Blu-ray and DVD players are manufactured to align with specific regional coding standards. For units purchased in the United States and Canada, the player is designed to support Region A Blu-ray discs and Region 1 DVDs. These designations ensure that the hardware remains compatible with the licensed content distributed within those geographical zones. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Best regards, Dominick

  • QuestionCan you play dvd from other regions? For example the uk

    Asked by AdamA.

    • Answer Hi AdamA, Standard Sony Blu-ray players sold in the United States, including the BDP-S1700U, are coded for Region 1 (North America) DVDs and Region A Blu-rays. Because the UK uses Region 2 for DVDs and Region B for Blu-rays, these discs will not be compatible with a standard US model. Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

  • QuestionDoes this player play enhanced cd's (CD extra/ CD plus)?

    Asked by Elaine.

    • Answer Hi Elaine, Hi there! We appreciate your interest in our Blu-ray player. The BDP-S1700U supports standard CD-DA (Audio CD) and CD-R/RW formats.

Thanks for choosing Sony. Best regards, Eliab

  • QuestionIs this a region free blu ray player? I need to play a blu ray from out of America.

    Asked by FlavorDave.

    • Answer Hi FlavorDave, Thank you for your inquiry regarding the Sony BDP-S1700U! This specific model is not region-free. It is manufactured as a Region A device, which is the standard for North America, South America, and parts of East and Southeast Asia. While some users look for "multi-region" capabilities, please note that Sony does not officially manufacture or support region-free Blu-ray players. The hardware is designed to adhere to international regional coding standards. We hope this clears things up, and thank you for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer NO IT DOES NOT!!!!!! Internet connectivity is ONLY for "software updates"

  • QuestionDoes this player include the latest apps such as Disney plus Netflix Hulu you tube,etc.?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Thank you for contacting Sony. The BDP-S1700U is designed primarily for high-quality disc playback. While it does have a wired network connection, it is intended for software updates and BD-Live™ services rather than a full suite of streaming apps like Disney+, Netflix, or Hulu. If you are looking for a player with integrated streaming apps and Wi-Fi, we’d recommend checking out our UBP-X700 or UBP-X800M2 models, which are better suited for a "smart" home theater experience! We appreciate your interest in Sony products.

  • QuestionDoes this unit need a separate power cord?

    Asked by Sheryl.

    • Answer Hi Sheryl, The Sony BDP-S1700U does come with the power cord included in the box. However, unlike some older players that use a standard 'plug-and-go' cable, this model uses an external AC Power Adapter (similar to a laptop charger). You won't need to buy anything extra, but you will need to use the specific Sony adapter that comes with it, as a standard power cable will not fit the small round port on the back of this unit. We hope you find this information helpful, and thanks for considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

  • QuestionWill this player play a dvd-r with an mpg file on it? How about a dvd-r with an mp4? Thanks

    Asked by Jeff.

    • Answer Hi Jeff, Yes, the Sony BDPS1700U is designed to support both of those formats when burned onto a recordable disc. According to the technical specifications, the player is compatible with DVD-R media containing both MPEG (.mpg) and MPEG4 (.mp4) video files. To ensure smooth playback, please verify that the files are encoded within the supported parameters, such as AAC audio for your MP4 files. The player's internal software will recognize these folders and files much like a computer would, allowing you to select and play them directly from the disc menu. For more details about other discs and compatible formats please visit: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/4579/f2b13b14d596d6574a73a689b5d4b0dc/45796631M.pdf Thank you for considering Sony.
