  • Questiondoes it play CDs gapless

    Asked by larry.

    • Answer Hi Larry, Thank you for question! Yes, the Sony BDP-S1700U does support gapless CD playback. However, to ensure a consistently smooth performance without interruptions between tracks, it's essential that the CDs you play are in good condition. This means they should be clean, free of dirt, fingerprints, deep scratches, or other damage. Any physical flaw on the disc can cause the player to briefly hesitate or buffer while reading, which can interrupt the seamless, gapless transition between songs. We appreciate you considering Sony! Regards, Dominick

  • QuestionIs the remote RF and TX?

    Asked by Jeff.

    • Answer Hi Jeff, thanks for your interest in our Blu-ray Player. We can definitely assist with that! For the BDP-S1700U, the remote is a traditional IR (Infrared) type, not RF. What that means for you is that you'll need to have a clear line of sight between the remote and the Blu-ray player for it to register your button presses. You can find more information about the unit in the manual at the following link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/5043/9bf387fdef45845189a891b85b87783b/50433041M.pdf Thanks for considering Sony products!

  • QuestionCan this be installed vertically on a wall?

    Asked by Customer.

    • Answer Hi Customer, Thank you for asking about the installation options for the Sony BDP-S1700U Blu-ray Disc Player. No, the BDP-S1700U cannot be safely or correctly installed vertically on a wall. The player is engineered to function only when discs are inserted and spun while the unit is in a flat, horizontal position. Installing it vertically or at any angle may cause the internal mechanisms to malfunction, potentially damaging the player or the discs. For optimal performance and to prevent operational issues, the player must be operated in a standard horizontal orientation on a shelf or TV stand. We hope this answer your question, and thanks for considering Sony products! Regards, Dominick
