Linking Multiple Changers? Sony DVPCX995V 400-Disc DVD Mega Changer/Player: Has anyone had any experience with the multiple blu-ray unit linked to another Sony mutliple dvd changer?

The DVPCX995V has no such capability that I'm aware of, and I specifically looked for that feature when I bought mine. I also see no information in the manual, nor any copnnector(s) on the rear panel that suggest this capability. My Pioneer DV-F727 has that capability, and even comes with the necessary cable to link them up. I've seriously considered this, since the Sony is miserably slow at everything. The only reason I put up with it is the 400-disc capacity.

I am unable to offer assistance. Mine worked about two days before it quit working altogether. I did not get a chance to try it on BluRay before it stopped working. I would discourage anyone who was thinking of buying this switcher.

I'm sorry, I have not tried that. I simply attach it from one dvd player to another usually. It is my belief that it will work though. It works with all other devices I've tried. I have to say that this device is worth every penny though as it has allowed me to make my own compilations of media. Good luck!!!

I also have 2 but they both work, no problems. Have done hundreds of DVD's with them. Sorry, can't help you.

It's crazy. I have an LG Blu Ray player and it has always resumed played on all blu ray disc. However just bought my dad a blu ray player (sony) for fathers day and it does not resume play. I had never heard of the issue before and it is unreal that this is a problem. I cannot believe they can't fix that.

No, you have the have the main unit. There is one CD slot in the main unit, and then the multi-changer is in addition which is connected to the main unit. The main unit sits on top of the changer. Hope this helps.

i have not had any problem with dual-layered dvd's on either the cx995v or its predecessor the cx985v. i guess the individual dvd title makes the difference.

After reading over that page, I found that this does not support DVD menus. Hopefully this functionality will be added sooner rather than later.How difficult is it to switch between two video output sources if you are unable to see the menus?

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 wondered the same thing when I got mine. I believe you are correct in saying one for power and one for data. I have always used both. You could just try one cable and see if it works. I thought I read in one of the reviews somewhere that with one cable blu ray didn't play right. You would just have to try it and see. Sorry I could't be more helpful.

Thats dumb. I got a regular DVD player in 1998 and the DVD resumed fine back then. I think thats crazy that the Bludiscs dont have that feature.

If you're looking for a multi-region dvd player. Search online for "multi-region dvd player codes" then look for that player. I think they are becoming more difficult to find. Also going back say ten years I remember the american market was accidentally flooded with them. A major company (I forget who) unloaded a large shipment in the USA with the multi-region open. Reason was there were only supposed to be a couple made that way for "trials" of dvd's. However something happened.

I have this same issue with an earlier model (BDP-S350). For me the problem began when my blu-ray player automatically updated its firmware last spring. Even blu-ray disks that played fine earlier stopped playing, although many of the new disks that I've tried work fine. Sony appears to be oblivious to this issue not providing any meaningful customer support. There are several possible solutions posted on the SONY website and on various discussion forums for other models (e.g, turn off the Internet access, clear the USB jump drive memory, unplug the unit from the AC power for a minute or two). None of them worked in my case. I finally gave up and bought a new Panasonic player; out of principle I persisted in trying to 'fix' my Sony blu-ray player for quite a while and eventually decided to pay a few buck to buy my way out of the aggravation). Bye, bye Sony products, hello Panasonic (They also burned me years ago for discontinuing support [e.g., driver updates] for one of their expensive Vaio computers.).

For this changer you can load 6 CDs that will be played one at a time. Strongly suggest getting extended warranty for this product as it has been unreliable. Do an online search for this model and you will see all the problems that it has.

Thanks for your reply Martin....I read that in the manual online also, but I think that section applies nto cd's not dvd's...how can it play each dvd withoyt accessing the menu on each dvd ???...I tried a Toshiba and a Samsung changer and neither worked with dvd's only cd's....
