The DP-UB820 is Panasonic's mid-range 4K UHD Blu-ray player — the go-to choice for Dolby Vision plus HDR10+ playback with a full TWIN HDMI architecture. One HDMI output carries 4K HDR video and audio to the TV, while the second HDMI output carries audio only to an older AV receiver that does not pass 4K HDR — useful for listeners with a legacy Atmos receiver. Rear analogue audio consists of a dedicated stereo L/R pair plus a full 7.1-channel RCA output, backed up by an Optical TOSLINK digital output for stereo/DD/DTS pass-through. USB 3.0 on the rear plays high-resolution audio from external drives.
4K UHD Blu-ray player with dual HDMI 2.0b, optical digital audio, full 7.1ch analog RCA, USB 3.0, and LAN.

Notes & Compatibility
TWIN HDMI architecture: one full A/V output (HDMI 2.0b, 18 Gbps, Dolby Vision + HDR10+) to TV, one AUDIO-ONLY HDMI output to a legacy AV receiver that does not pass 4K HDR. Dedicated 2-channel analog RCA output PLUS a full 7.1-channel analog RCA output (8 mono RCA jacks arranged as 3 stereo pairs + centre + sub). Optical TOSLINK present; NO coaxial S/PDIF output on this model. Ethernet is 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet (not Gigabit). Rear USB is USB 3.0 (represented as USB 3.2 Gen 1); front USB is USB 2.0. Power uses a fixed 2-prong AC mains cord — no IEC inlet, so no power-cable port is listed.
