BD Live help

[fiveseven4combat]

I just got the Samsung BD-P1600 a few weeks ago, and I don't know what happened to my manual, but I need help activating BD live.

You can find the manual online via the following link:

You also need a USB Flash memory stick in order to use BD-Live.

I don't think a "best usb" matters...but some SHOULD be better than others (Kingston, Sandisk)...they are cheap in general...about 10$ for a 2 gig...and yes, walmart has them even (if i remember right) in 3 packs....

Check your manual...but if it is to expand the players memory, should go into a USB port on the player...no???

EDIT: Your USM1GH is your memory stick. You don't need to purchase another memory stick.

Sony's USB port, marked EXT, is a recessed port and therefore all USB devices may not fit properly. You need to insert the supplied USM1GH flash memory into this port. However, any one of the following Sony devices should work:

Once you have one of these devices you can insert it into the back of the player's EXT port and can be found next to the fan. Here's a picture of the back for reference:



Also, check page 24 of your manual. If you need a copy of the manual it can be found here:

You should be all set. The BDP-S550 came with a Sony USM1GH Flash Memory stick which needs to be inserted into the USB port on the back of the player. You also need to connect one end of the ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back of the player and the other end to the internet. Those are the two requirements in order to use BD-Live.

EDIT: The flash memory card from Sony is a minaturized USB memory stick and should look like this:
