Same here. Works fine with Blu Ray, but says Check Disc when I put in a DVD.

We didn't have a problem with ours it works great we got it for our daughter for Christmas. Did u switch the function to Cd? Maybe it is defective.

I've got one that has gone into this same problem as described: Just cycles through one disk after another saying 'cant read this disk' Has anyone found a solution for this? Blue SA-CD and Multichannel lights are on. Will not even recognize standard store bought DVD's currently.

My player worked fine for 8 months; now, however, it doesn't play any dvd. The screen message is "invalid disk"I have reset the default settings, and checked the connections. any suggestions?

My unit also has this problem of not being able to read discs. It just goes to the next disc and repeats the message. I'm thinking it may be the laser since I accidentally forgot to turn the unit off one night.

Yup....it seems there are problems. My player just stopped playing DVD video discs (ie any non-bluray disc). UGH...very frustrating. I must admit that up until now I've been very pleased with the player. All I can figure is that its one of the latest firmware upgrades. Back to the factory...

My Unit never played DVDs from the beginning. Never played DVDs from the box. I thought it was a region code issue but it is not. Then I though it was an Firmware issue so I upgraded from V26 to V29. Still does not play DVDs. I bought it from Amazon LLC directly. If I would have found out this after I purchased the unit, I would have gave Amazon a piece of my mind. But it's too late now as a couple years has gone by. Please learn from my mistake. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE CD Player (Philips HTS8100/37).

I do nothing to the disk until it does start skipping, or the player will not recognize the disc. When it comes to cleaning, I always start with the shortest spin time, and the least abrasive solution. Then look at the surface after a final cleaning. If still scratched, make another pass. So far, nothing has been too far gone to save.

After owning this machine for 7 months (had our first for about three years) I'm having the same problem as of this morning. I'm going to try all the tactics that billf recommends. Anyone else rectify the problem?

hi, were you able to update it? did you need that in a way to use it? (im asking as Im trying to define if I should or not get this unit...) thanks!

Am I crazy, or is it more than a bit offputting that, after buying a machine, you then have to start getting upgrades for it just to be able to play newer discs? My machine's about two years old, and the last disc I bought wouldn't load. Seems like a rip-off to me. And it's not like blu-ray sales have been strong enough to justify this sort of customer fleecing.

As others have mentioned, check to see that the unit is not set to manually on, if it is not then you probably are experiencing the beginning of many problems to come with this unit. I returned the one I bought because of similar problems. Mine experienced problems early and multiplied with age. Read some of the reviews on Amazon. I would advise taking it back if possible. This would be a great unit if it worked properly for a reasonable amont of time.

Oddly, we have the same problem. We have had our Sony for several years, granted, but it has stopped transitioning to the next CD too. I have no answers for you. If it is still under warranty apply to Sony for your answer. Good Luck!

Mine has worked perfectly for several months now. No ideas about the problem without seeing the installation.

Yeah, in my case, I know it isn't a firmware issue. At this point, my player no longer reads/plays any discs at all. It is pretty much dead in the water for discs. It can still do online stuff, but I have a 360 for that. I talked to LG and they suggest sending it in for repairs, but I've read nothing but negative comments from people who have tried that route. Thanks for the help with the Oppo. It might be the way to go. If anyone else wants to add their 2 cents, I'd appreciate it.
