Need help updating my PS3, unable to play blue raydo to the encryption code key out of date. Do I down load the software directly into the PS3, meaning I must be hooked up via my laptop ?
You may have to renew the AACS encryption key to play content such as
movies on commercially available BD video software (BD-ROM). If a
message indicating that the encryption key needs to be renewed is
displayed, update
the system software to the latest version. The encryption key will
then be automatically renewed.
AACS (Advanced Access Control System) is a copyright-protection
technology that is used on Blu-ray Discs. The copyrighted content is
protected by setting an encryption key on both the disc and the device
used to play the disc.
An AACS encryption key expires in 12 to 18 months and must be
renewed. There may also be other times when the key has to be renewed. in the manual
A Blu-ray playback device, say, the PS3, only have temporary rights to play movies as their encryption key will expire after a certain period of time. The only way for you to keep playing the newest movies with your Blu-ray playback device is to update and keep up with the newest firmware.
