QuestionShould the HDMI deep color output be set to AUTO or off? Along with the display output being set to 4k?
Asked 8 years ago by zach.
- Answer The display output will only display 4K when the source material is 4K. Leave it in auto mode and let the player do what its supposed to do.

QuestionI've had my Sony UBP-X800 for 3 weeks. I've bought 20 4K UHD discs. 17 play perfectly. Fantastic Beasts, Deadpool and Kong Skull Island will not play at all. The Bluray versions do. Can you tell me what might be the problem?
Asked 8 years ago by Elton.
- Answer I've had mine for two weeks and it has done two updates already. That might be an issue? Also check to make sure your connecting with High Speed HDMI 2.0 cables.

QuestionHow can't find Pandora app on this Blu-ray?
Asked 8 years ago by KitKat.
- Answer Because Sony has chosen not to support Pandora (and many other apps). I see someone from 'Sony Listens' commented that Pandora would be added with a future software update - but that was 4 years ago! I recently bought one of these players so I could (1) play BD movies; and (2) so I could use popular apps including Pandora. What I found was very few apps still supported. Boxed it up and took it back to the store. I honestly don't care if it sounds like a tin can ... Pandora and several other very-popular apps are missing. What I'll likely do is go buy a different player ... plus a roku or similar that has the apps I'm looking for.

QuestionConnected via 4K HDMI cable to a new Sony 4K TV. TV audio connected to home theater receiver via digital optical connection. The sound level from the Sony - UBP-X800 is significantly lower than the TV stations or streaming apps. How can I fix that?
Asked 7 years ago by Jeff.
- Answer Does your receiver have any HDMI ports? The X800 has two HDMI outputs, one for both video and audio and one for audio only. The HDMI audio only is intended for older receivers with HDMI that do not support 4K, but can be used for Dolby or DTS audio processing. It might be time to upgrade your receiver. Does your receiver have HDMI that supports ARC (Audio Return Channel)? If so, connect an HDMI cable from the TV's HDMI (ARC) port to the receiver's HDMI (ARC) port and use that instead of an optical connection. Make sure HDMI-CEC is enabled on the TV, receiver, and X800. The receiver will recognize the ARC connection and go into a 'TV' mode for processing the audio from all sources connected to the TV. That will be a better solution than an optical cable.
