Blu-ray Disc Profile Comparison Table:

Note: If the BD & 3D Advisor indicates that your computer cannot successfully playback Bonus View or BD Live items, your player may still be able to play back Blu-ray Discs, but it won’t be able to play the special content that support Bonus View or BD-Live. To play this special content, you would need to update your player.
