XR-48A90K - using a DVD with this TV

I use quite an old Sony DVD player with this TV I recently purchased. I wonder if anyone can tell me DVDs marked 'ultra HD Blu Ray region free' can be used on this player, BDP S370, - or whether the benefits of the disk (especially picture) would not be apparent when using this particular player?

Hi @Harry21   It is not clear if you have an old BDP-S370 (2010) or thinking of buying one?

I think I bought it in 2015. Would there be any indication on it whether its old edition or never?

Hi @Harry21 

 

If you already have the Blu-ray player, why don’t you test it yourself? Check out the model manuals date below.

 

Would there be any indication on it whether its old edition or never?”. Sorry, I have no idea what you are asking, could you expand or phrase that in a different way.

In order to play an ultra HD Blu-ray disk you have to have an ultra HD Blu-ray player that the s370 is not. So it won't work.

Sorry - meant to write 'whether its old edition or not'. My player has blu ray written on it....but didn't know whether there are different generations of blu ray disks that only new player models can deal with, before I buy some expensive blu ray dvds

My s370 has blu ray written on it - though it was bought about 8 years ago
