I have 3 Criterion DVD's and the picture plays but I am not getting sound. Other dvd's and criterion blu-rays work fine.

Go to Audio/sound..Uncheck dolby digital and use normal audio. This WILL solve your problem, but you must do it for every movie you watch. I got a refund for this problem, but got to keep the blue ray. Small price for a good product :))

Hi Paul Beauparlant,Here are the options that you need to check for you to have sound. Digital Audio Output, Dolby D Compatible Output, Audio DRC and Downmix. Thanks. >Joffrey

I have not had any problems. Perhaps your dvds are blue ray which my TV does not support. Sorry, I can't help.

i upgraded as well and have had no problems with previously unviewable blu-rays. Until tonight...the mummy returns is the first movie that doesnt play since i upgraded the firmware. anyone know anything about this?

Perhaps you need firmware to play or disc is defective. To find out play disc on someone else's blu ray player if it doesn't then you know it's the disc.

I have movies, instructional DVDs , duplicates of originals don't know the brand , they are not marked.when it doesn't play it can't be read, that happens sometimes with my DVD hooked up to tv, but not with the portable.

My SD DVDs did not look good either. The upconversion to 1080p cause the picture to "jitter" slightly, but noticeably. I went to "video output settings, selected hdmi (which are the cables I am using), manually set the output to 1080i....and the problem completely went away. My SD DVDs now look as well as they did on my old players.

Make sure you have downloaded Windows media player or VLC media player or some other "player". I had the same problem; the DVDs weren't playing because I didn't have the proper software to play them. Hope that helps.

I play mine on a sony Blu-ray/DVD player. It plays both DVDs and Blu-ray discs and have had no problems.

I understand that there is a firmware update that supposedly fixes this issue. Also, it is my understanding that TV must be hooked up to initially set up and play audio CDs and SACDs. As I'm only interested in audio playback, this is important to know. Can anyone confirm? Perhaps L.Go since you have the unit and have played the disks.

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

try this website- drivers.softpedia.com/get/DVD-BluRay-Media-Players -then you might find what you need per your system, hope this helps :) or do a search for your specific blu-ray player.

The remote won't play the blu-ray disc. All the other remote features work. But the play will not.

Check the settings on your BluRay player to see how it's set to pass the audio along to the receiver. Also, *some* movies actually have a PCM soundtrack, so try various movies to see if they all display as PCM. But first, check the output settings on your player.

you can go into the Audio and check speaker volume, I turned down the front 2 speakers and the center channel and turned up the rear volume; also when you play dvd or blu ray make sure you have set for 5.1 channel. Not all are set this way automatically. hope that is of some help

This happened to me as well, when trying to play a home-burned DVD-R on an older Sony DVD player. Many of the players that are more than about 5 years old don't seem to recognize DVD-R burned discs, only commercial "pressed" DVDs. The only thing I was able to do was buy an inexpensive newer DVD player (I got a new Sony player for about $40) and it plays all of my home-burned discs just fine.
