New to Blu-ray; "blue square" on my screen? - Blu-ray Forum

I am new to all this. Just got a new PS3 for Blu-Ray. Connected up with HDMI, played my SpiderMan Blu-Ray perfectly. Bought the new Blu-Ray edition of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The PS3 plays the movie fine, but this "blue square" looking thing appears in the upper right corner of the screen now and then. It looks like it appears when there is a Title or Chapter change or something. Haven't figured it out. The box will appear, and then after a few minutes it goes away, only to come back about later on. Anybody know or seen what I am referring to? I only have SpiderMan3 and CEOTTK Blu-ray DVDs. Didn't notice it on Spiderman3.

I can't confirm this since I don't have CE3K, but I would guess that it's an indicator to activate one of the features on the disc. Make sure you don't have any of the features turned on.
