I had the same problem the Wolfman Blu-ray and traced the problem down to the flash drive I had connected to the USB port. When I disconnected it, loaded like a charm, not even the hint of a hiccup.

I had the same problem: it suddenly would not read discs, CD, DVD, Blu-ray...nada, zero, zilch. That happened on the 86th day after purchse, so I went online the next day and submitted a warranty claim. Two days later, I contacted an agent who insisted the unit was out of warranty because the "system" said so. He refused to count the calendar days and said there was no supervisor available. I contacted another agent the next day who said, that by his calculations, my unit was under warranty and very quickly got me an RMA and shipping label. ...pays to be persistent...

It can only read Blu-Ray discs and burn DVDs: Blu-ray Reader/DVD-Writer BD-ROM/DVD-RAM/R/RW

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.

I haven't had a problem playing rented Blu Ray discs or DVDs after installing the most current driver. I've heard that several people had issues, but I wonder if it was related to the driver.

That sounds like a problem with your individual unit. My wife got me the Blu-ray edition of Planet Earth for Valentines Day and I've been watching them constantly.....no problems detected...not even the slightest hiccup. Have you loaded the latest firmware patch from Sharp? I loaded it the day I bought my player (a couple months ago). Good luck with getting this working!!

I just purchased the Samsung BD-P3600 blu-ray players and I'm having the same problem as posted by C. Wagnon; anyone out there has a solution! If I can't use the wifi connection, I'll be returning the darn player!

I encountered same problem. In June 2010 (18 months after purchase), my Sony BDP-550 stopped recognizing Blu-Ray disks. All other types of disks still work. Sony had me upgrade the firmware and reset device to factory settings. No effect. The Sony customer support people pretend that they have never heard of this problem. I sent them a dozen on-line reports by others who talked to Sony and were also told to upgrade the firmware without effect. Now, I am trying to get a written quote for the replacement of this defective BDP-550, but Sony will not provide it. They want me to mail them the player with a credit card number without ever providing written estimate.

I have the same player you have and have played those very same blu ray dvd'sI would unplug the player.wait a few min. allow it to reboot........andtry it againif all else fails...I would try a different disc from that collection.and If that doest work you may have gotten a defective set of discs.

There no disc drive at all, so no it does not play blu-ray. I have an external DVD-RW drive that I use if I need to burn a disc.

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...

Do you have software that will recognize Blu ray discs? I had to purchase WinDVD 10 to get my computer to recognize my discs. B/c if the laptop didn't come with a blu ray drive it won't recognize this new drive b/c it wasn't designed for it.

Try another DVD brand or two. Sounds like your disc drive is having mechanical difficulties. Probably not specific to these Taiyo Yuden discs.

I have since received the cd-rom from Panasonic to upgrade my DMP-BD35 blue-ray player and that solved the problem. It is now properly upgraded with the Version.7 firmware upgrade. If there are others having a similar problem upgrading their firmware, contact Panasonic.
