1.3 Versions of Nero Blu-ray Player
Nero Blu-ray Player is part of Nero 2014 Platinum, Nero 2014 and Nero MediaHome. If you
use the (free) standalone Nero MediaHome you can purchase Nero Blu-ray Player from
Market.
Nero Blu-ray Player in Nero 2014 Platinum or purchased from Market provides the full fea-
ture range as described in this manual.
Nero Blu-ray Player in Nero 2014 or Nero MediaHome do not include the following features:
3D Blu-ray playback
Blu-ray Discs (BD BD-J, BD-AV, BD-MV) playback
DTS 2Ch and 5.1Ch decoding (Activation is still necessary because of legal issues)
AACS read (Activation is still necessary because of legal issues)
If you want to have Nero Blu-ray Player with all the features, you can either upgrade to Nero
2014 Platinum or purchase Nero Blu-ray Player from Nero MediaHome Market.
(For information how to purchase and access applications in Nero MediaHome Market
please refer to the manual of Nero MediaHome which can be downloaded for free from
www.nero.com.)
Nero Blu-ray Player is also available in Essentials or OEM versions. Essentials or OEM
software may differ from the full version in a more or less broad functional range. Thereby,
the feature limitations of your single Essentials version compared to the full range depends
on the co-contractor's choice. That means, depending on the Nero product you purchased,
your version of Nero Blu-ray Player may be limited and may not include the full feature
range.
You can always upgrade from your Essentials version to the full featured version at
www.nero.com or in Nero MediaHome Market.
1.4 System Requirements
Nero Blu-ray Player is part of the Nero product you have installed. Its system requirements
are the same. Detailed system requirements of this and all other Nero products can be found
in the Support section on our Web site
www.nero.com.

1.5 Starting the Program
There are several ways to open Nero Blu-ray Player, depending on various factors such as
the product you have installed and the operating system you are using.
On Windows 7 and earlier versions of Windows, you can start Nero Blu-ray Player via:
Start (the start icon) > (All) Programs > Nero > Nero Blu-ray Player
the Nero 2014 desktop icon
The application launcher Nero 2014 provides easy access to Nero applica-
tions, offers information about the main use cases, and links to tutorials and other
interesting Web sites by Nero.
On Windows 8, you can start Nero Blu-ray Player via:
the Nero 2014 tile (Windows 8 Start screen) or the Nero 2014 desktop icon
(Windows 8 desktop) if you use Nero 2014
When you have inserted an appropriate disc, you can also start Nero Blu-ray
Player by choosing the disc drive in the sidebar of Nero MediaHome or in Win-
dows Explorer.
Auto-Play of a newly inserted Blu-ray disc is also possible. In these cases, the
play back starts when Nero Blu-ray Player is launched.
If you have purchased the full, 3D capable, version of Nero Blu-ray Player (in
Market or with Nero 2014 Platinum), Nero Blu-ray Player checks during the first-
start up for any 3D capable hardware or device. If such is found, Nero Blu-ray
Player prompts you to set up the 3D settings. After the setup, a success message
is displayed and Nero Blu-ray Player describes the way you can enable 3D (in-
cluding what needs to be done in the graphics card settings).

4 Control During Playback
You have different options to control Nero Blu-ray Player during the playback.
Player Control Bar and Mouse
You can use the standard player control bar, which is always visible in window mode. During
playback in full-screen mode, the player control bar times out after a few seconds. You can
display it again by moving the mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen. If you move the
mouse pointer outside the player control bar in full-screen mode, the interactive applications
on the Blu-ray disc gain control (if there are such interactive applications).
Screen Remote Control
A screen remote allows Nero Blu-ray Player to be fully usable with only a mouse as user
input method. The screen remote allows you to navigate through the menus on the disc and
to select an item. Furthermore it provides access to the number and color keys. This is es-
pecially relevant when playing interactive applications such as games. You can open the
screen remote with the
button.
More Menu and Context Menu
You can use both the More menu and the context menu to control Nero Blu-ray Player dur-
ing playback. They provide advanced and standard control options. You can open the con-
text menu via right-click and the More menu via the
More button. The context menu
offers only control options, which can be used in specific contexts.
Keyboard
You can also control most of the control options just with your keyboard and keyboard
shortcuts. Note that there are two keyboard input modes available. Per default you control
Nero Blu-ray Player with your keyboard and use the application-specific keyboard shortcuts
as described in this manual.
However, there is another keyboard input mode available. In the other mode, you can use
the keyboard to type text when the Blu-ray Disc asks you to enter a value (like your name,
for example). In this mode you may also use disc-specific keyboard shortcuts (which must be
provided and supported by the inserted Blu-ray Disc). Note that when you use the keyboard
for typing text, Nero Blu-ray Player is not able to recognize its own, applicaion-specific key-
board shortcuts like Play and Pause.
You can switch between the two input modes with the entries Use Keyboard for Text Input
/ Use Keyboard for Keyboard Shortcuts in the More menu.
