Why Won't My XA2 Play +R,+RW Media? My XA2 will not play +R Media.I don't understand because some others have stated that their unit will play this format.I can only playback +R dics when I set the resolution to 1080i or lower.Has anyone else noticed...

+R was Sony's abomination that should never have been invented, just like SACD, which is DVD-audio in disguise.

Paul, wish that was an option, I have the Zeus II and it will only play on my computer when a disc from EFX is inserted (it doesn't have to be specifically that disc)

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).

Hello! I bought this Nero2014 for the very same reason. Out of the box, I was able to play Blu-Ray movies, however, after a software update, this ability was stripped away! I contacted Nero, and after much delayed email support, they emailed me diagnostics software to run. The diagnostic software created a file to email back to them for troubleshooting. They responded back to me that my graphics card is no longer supported. I have an HP Envy 27" that I bought in April 2014, with both an integrated Intel graphics card and NVIDIA graphics card. The system automatically switches based on graphics need. Externally, I have an Optiarc (Sony, the inventor of Blu-Ray) BD-RW drive connected via USB.

This unit used to play my mp3's flawlessly. One day I attempted to play mp4 video from a flashdrive. It didnt play; and subsequently stopped playing mp3's permanently. Maybe a firmware update might resolve the problem.

The manual says it will not play DivX (or MP3 or WMA). I don't know about the other formats.

Dear Gene, I don't have an MP3 CD that I can try and play to answer your question. The Sony box says it has CD-R/RW playback capability, but there is no mention of MP3 anywhere, so I am pretty sure it does not.Katia

This may be better researched on Wikipedia but the short version is there is no difference (some older players had compatibility issues but they should all be gone by now...+R was usually more compatible with more systems) You can use these as video, music and data storage.

Anybody?....we have tried everything. There is supposed to be an option for av out in the quality video settings. However the options in quality are the same as in panel quality. Very dissapointed right now. How do I get them both to play video as well as hearing the movie?

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.

Andy,I used some SW called Sonic to format a DVR+R disc and copied/burned a few Xvid (.avi) files to it. But the 5960 was not able to read/load the files. What went wrong? How did you burn files to DVD+R disc?Thanks,Vicne

Glad to know that purchased videos work on the X-Fi. They did *not* work on the X-Fi Style that I bought, so I returned that one. Has anyone tried hooking the X-Fi to an external video screen? Any comments on how best to do that? If it's easy and inexpensive enough, I might try the X-Fi.Thanks, - Ted

Unfortunately, I can't help you. I bought this unit from an Amazon vendor "like new" and it wouldn't play. They sent a second unit and it wouldn't play either. I ended up buying a different brand and it worked fine.
