  • QuestionDoes it play 4k ultra disc and dvd

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer Hi there, thanks for asking! The BDPS1700U does not support playback of 4K Ultra HD (UHD) Blu-ray discs. This model is a standard Blu-ray player, which means: It can play standard Blu-ray discs, regular DVDs, and CDs. It does not support the newer Ultra HD Blu-ray (4K UHD) disc format, which requires a specific UHD-compatible drive and decoding hardware. Some Sony models in higher series (like the BDP-S6500 and BDP-S6700) can upscale standard Blu-ray and DVD content to near-4K resolution when connected to a 4K TV, but they also do not support actual 4K UHD disc playback. The BDP-S1700U is designed to play DVDs and Blu-ray discs; however, it will not recognize or play 4K Ultra HD discs. This model is capable of upscaling standard definition DVDs to near HD resolution and can play Blu-ray movies in Full High Definition quality. If 4K playback is a requirement for you, you might consider the following models: - UBP-X700 - UBP-X800 - UBP-X800M2 - UBP-X1000ES These models are equipped to play UHD Blu-ray discs and output native 4K video. It is important to note that earlier models, such as the BDPS6700, are labeled as "4K upscaling models" and cannot play UHD discs, similar to the BDPS1700U, which can upscale to HD but does not support 4K playback. We hope you find this information helpful. If you require further assistance, please feel free to email us at [email protected], providing the following information: - Name - Username - Model Number - Description of the Issue - Telephone Number We appreciate your interest in Sony players!

  • QuestionDoes this DVD player work with just the hdmi cable? Or do you need to hook up the audio cable?

    Asked by Elaine.

    • Answer Hi Elaine, Yes, the Sony BDP-S1700U Blu-ray player can be used with just the HDMI cable alone. The HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) standard is designed to transmit both high-quality digital video and multi-channel digital audio through a single cable. As long as you connect the HDMI cable from the player to an HDMI input on your TV (or sound system), you do not need to connect a separate audio cable. The sound will be carried over the HDMI cable along with the picture. Thank you for considering Sony products! Regards, Dominick

    • Answer Hi Dee65, Yes, the Sony BDP-S1700U is a special bundle that includes a high-speed HDMI cable in the box to ensure you have everything needed for an immediate setup. 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

  • 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!

  • 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
