My Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player won't read Blu-ray discs?

Question

Hello, I have a Samsung Blu-ray Disc Player, BD-P1000 and although it plays regular DVDs just fine, when I insert a Blu-ray disc it takes a very long time to load and eventually tells me that 'The Disc Cannot be Read' or something like that.

Please help, thank you.

Answer 1

This is one of the early players so it may not be able to read the latests BD discs.

Go to the Samsung web site and download a firmware upgrade.

You will need a CD burner to burn the s/w and then you insert it in the player. There are detailed instructions on the web.

Or call samsung support.
