Today marks the day that every new Blu-ray Disc player released must adhere to the Profile 1.1 specification, which calls for added hardware to support advanced special features such a picture-in-picture video overlay.

Although the deadline for Profile 1.1 hardware has been known well in advance, hardware and software supporting the new specification is yet to be available. LG’s dual-format player is believed to be fully compliant with Profile 1.1, and Panasonic announced today its plans to ship its full profile player on November 5.
