QuestionCan you time record from a live TV broadcast and save for later viewing. e.g.: Record the daily 6:00 News Hour from PBS and save it for later viewing?
Asked 5 years ago by Bobby.
- Answer No. There's no way to record. It's a player, not a recorder.

QuestionDoes this support raw audio output? How is this enabled? I have a 7.1.2 surround sound with Denon AVR. I know it supports Atmos and DTS:X, but does it send these formats out raw from the disk or does it negatively alter them to something like PCM?
Asked 5 years ago by Troy.
- Answer I have a Pioneer system for 7.1.2 and it works great with the Sony. In Audio settings, there is Digital Audio Output. There it defaults to Auto. You have to choose PCM if you wanted it. The Auto selection is to output bitstream signals. If that is considered sending out raw, then I guess it does.

QuestionHas there been an update to include Vudu in the streaming options?
Asked 5 years ago by Joe.
- Answer Not that I have seen. I use my Vizio TV OS or Amazon Firestick to stream. I think Sony UBP-X700 had Vudu, but I bought UBP-X800M2 for DVD-Audio, not streaming.

QuestionWill this player work with a drop down ceiling screen? NFLX or ROKU or AMZN, what about I heart radio? Thanks!
Asked 5 years ago by Rose.
- Answer You need to hook this up to a projector to display on the screen. The only available apps are Netflix, Amazon Video, and YouTube. You can't add, remove the 3 apps, that I've found.

QuestionI am using a Western Digital 1 TB USB powered drive and it's working well. Do you know if there is a limit to how large a USB powered drive I can use? Thanks
Asked 5 years ago by Jeff53404.
- Answer Interesting question. Sony cautions against using the USB for charging purposes. This is what they say about the file system. "The player can recognize up to 500 files/folders in a single layer including the update files/folders." A little obscure, but it sounds like 500 files per folder and 500 folders. So that can be a fairly big drive of music and video. But I'd worry more about power consumption. Which is not specified anywhere I can find.

QuestionI bought Sony but ray player UNP-X800M2 can I down load apps Disney plus and other apps if so how
Asked 5 years ago by Walt.
- Answer No you can’t. You can’t download apps on it which is somewhat misleading because the player is a streaming one. You get the 3 apps that come on it and that’s it. If you want get Hulu or Disney plus you’re going to need a smart tv, a PS4 or Amazon fire stick. It’s still a good player for 4K discs.

QuestionI have the x800 older version. It plays standards dvds but will not play 4k or even the blurays. Haven't owned it very long. Maybe two years. Could it be time to buy a new one?
Asked 5 years ago by Cathy.
- Answer My X800 did the same after a upgrade. Had to power off(unplugged) for few minutes and reconnected and it was fine. A simple restart did not work for some reason. I was about to return it as it was still under geek squad protection.

QuestionDoes the Sony UBP-X800M2 allow you to adjust the size and location of subtitles?
Asked 1 year ago by Pete.
- Answer Hello. We checked on this today. You can adjust the size and fonts of the subtitles but we couldn't find any way to change the location of the subtitles. That was on the machine itself. Watching streaming like Netflix allows you another way to adjust the subtitles but I'm not aware of all the ways you can do that. I hope that this helps.

Asked 1 year ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Mine stopped responding to both the remote as well as direct input. Unplugging it reset things, but only temporarily. I returned mine after 12 days for another one. I’d exchange it if I were you.

QuestionI have an older Denon AVR 5700 receiver that does not have HDMI connection. Can I connect this Sony BlueRay player via coax to my receiver for Dolby/DTS 5.1 sound and then HDMI straight from this player to projector for image? Thanks.
Asked 1 year ago by Denonman5700.
- Answer I believe there is a coax connection on this blu ray player. Confirm with the product manual. If that is the case, your suggestion should work, also for playing CD’s, super audio CD’s, and any other music. There is also a dual set of HDMI’s on the blu ray player for people who want to separate audio and video HDMi connection, which is similar to what you are suggesting except with coax.

QuestionDoes this model retrieve CD Artist and Album title information from Gracenote or another online database?
Asked 2 years ago by LittleSleazer.
- Answer Sony had it on my x800 model but removed it because they probably didn't want to pay for the licensing agreement. A couple of years ago it was removed but they did notify through a notification on Blu-ray player that it would be removed. It would be nice to have but I haven't played a CD in a while in it.
