I have and do; in fact, it's been the best Blu Ray player I've used for a computer. I have a Mac and use a downloadable player. Try Different software; if that doesn't work, it might be a faulty unit.

Without the proper software, you will not be able to decode Blu-ray discs. Cyberlink worked for me and a few Blu-ray discs, but I haven't tried all of them yet. It may be a version issue, or it might be the disc you're trying to play. Good luck!

Hi there. I just had it put in. I dont think it plays blue ray.. The DVD is good. The only thing is it doesnt play while you are driving, but you can get an adaptor to bypass that. (thats what the installer told me) overall I really like it. If you dont care about navigation, you might want to look at something a bit cheaper.

What is required to set up the connection to stream Netflix movies directly to my TV? I have a BlueRay player connected to the TV. Can the movies be downloaded through the BlueRay player, as indicated in one of the previous messages? If so, how do you set this up? I am a Time Warner cable customer and I get TV, internet and phone through them.

Works great for me. I'm using Macgo blu ray software. Not sure if there are other programs that will give you blu ray functionality. I googled blu ray on Mac, and that's the first program I saw.

The reverse might be true! We play standard DVD's every day effortlessly. However. there IS a decal on the front of the TV which states that Blue Ray DVD's CANNOT be played on this unit so we've not tried Blue Rays. Hope this helps. We are very happy with this product in every aspect. Charles

Don't know what's up with that. Plays my DVDs just fine. If your DVDs are Blue Ray, that might be why. It might not play Blue Ray. My DVDs are not, so again, they play fine. =-)

You can see and browse, but so far I always get corrupt video errors when trying to stream anything. Works fine on my PS3, but would still like to see it work on the BluRay downstairs too!

I talked to Sony Support people and the problem is not the Blu-Ray. The player is working just fine, but since it is connected to a Home Theater, the receiver needs to be updated in order to play 3D movies. So, If some of you have a similar problem, Don't panic!!!, check the Blu-Ray firmware as well as the home theater.

I guess my question is: will this blue-ray player, play regular dvds, as well as others? I'm not that big into the movie scene, but it would be nice to watch my reuglar dvds, in HD quality. I do have an 1080p HDTV with all the works if that helps...please...I don't need a top of the line, just a decent blue-ray player..thanks! Note: I don't do streaming & special downlaods for movies, I just need something simple to use, yet that is good quality. I'm not a techno-person!

Thanks R. Oxhorn and Noaxtogrind. You asked and answered my question. Just got the Samsung BD5700 for a gift and hope Samsung does update the Blu-ray to access Amazon's streaming.

Yes but you will also need a software like CyberLink PowerDVD to play the Blu-ray movies, which is not included with this purchase, this is only the hardware to read the Blu-ray disk you still need the software to play them. I have had mine for a while now and I love it and I have had NO issues at all with it.

Mine is OK. Since I bought I used in two different computers. Played blu-ray, DVD, CD, everything. I had to install a proper software first. I use Cyberlink PowerDVD 13.

You need the software to play the unit. The software does not work on my machine. I even had a IT guy come install and it still had error when trying to play Blu Ray.

I'd buy the Samsung BD-P4600 Blu-Ray player, read up on web-site's about what to buy, Samsung,I have one and love it!, especially that since I also have a Samung 5084 50 inch Plasma TV also, HA!, so far everything I loaded into it has played without a problem, I have a Harmony 550 remote and down loaded codes from thier site and I'm having no problems so far. Haven't used the netflex yet but I can't see a problem there, but I think you got to have to right router (wireless or hard-wired) to use anything your going to use, maybe your just thinking to hard about this crap, buy it and read about what you have bougth and learn how to use it. I have a ONKYO TX-SR605S receiver with HDMI that I run this thru, and I never would even think about buying a F'*ING SONY, I'm sorry I forgot they own half of the ""USA"" !, "OH CRAP", sorry again, Rolacoy, I'm a happy person with Samsung so far, just "read" what the hell is in the box, and I see you know how to use the internet,surf the web and you'll find just about anything you might want to know about this S!!T, hoped this had a clue to what you need, like the old saying, It's better some time's to be going without being asked.
