To be honest I haven't played any blu-ray disc in it yet. So I can't really help you with an answer, sorry

You need to format it as a FAT32 drive. It comes pre-formatted with the NTFS file system--which can't be read by most Blu-ray players.

It depends upon what type of Maxell DL discs you have. It won't work on the BD (Blu-Ray) discs.

Lyn, I'll check and get back to you. It does not support Blu-Ray - every time I turn it on it has that display in big bold letters.

you may need to see if panasonic has a firmware update for the bluray player. sometimes that happens with newer bluray movies. check the panasonic website

Check the Onkyo website FAQs for your unit. There is a list of reasons there. It isn't explained well in their manual. Make sure your blu ray isn't doing the decoding and sending a multichannel signal.

I have two of them and they both play CDs and DVDs just fine . I would recommend updating the firmware to the most current one . You most likely though will have some issues playing some of the newer blu ray releases but otherwise it's a great player . Good luck

This will only play content from CD/DVD disks. If the disk says "blue-ray" (which is popular for new HD movies) this won't play it! You will need to look for a player that can play blue-ray disks.

Thanks for the update. I ended up buying the LG BD570 Network Blu-ray Disc Player after all my investigations and it has turned out to be a great device.I hardly use it for disc playback though, but it's nice to know that the option is there.

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

DLP: Like others, my BD390 quit playing many of the newer bluray discs a couple weeks ago. Firmware is current. After first discussion with LG support, I took the unit to an authorized electronic repair. Am told the unit is working properly but CANNOT be updated further to play the newer blurays coming out, despite firmware updates. Spoke again TODAY with LG support and they confirmed this. Was told there was NO upgrade available for the unit and that NO discount would be given on purchasing a newer LG unit! They were amazingly indifferent and told me I was "out of luck".......would either have to accept the fact this unit was ALREADY outdated for current and upcoming blurays, or buy a newer unit. I WILL NOT BE BUYING FUTURE LG PRODUCTS. DLP

It will play pretty much any type of media disc, including 3D Blu-ray. If you want to write data to a disc, here are the supported formats: Blu-ray: BD-R, BD-R DL, BD-R LTH, BD-RE, BD-RE DL DVD: DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-R DL, DVD+R DL, DVD+RW, DVD-RW CD: CD-R, CD-RW

It only lists the following formats as playable: Multi-format playback: Capability now includes DVD-/+R, DVD-/+RW, VCD, SVCD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 playback for flexible playback options.BD is not among them. I say that because, while I own one, I've never actually tried putting a blu-ray disc directly into the drive. As far as I know, it is strictly a DVD player. I use a PS3 for my blu-ray needs.I would opt for something else if you want blu-ray capabilities.

yvonne avery, We're sorry to hear that you're having issues with your Blu-Ray player. Without more information, it's difficult to determine what might be happening. Please reach out to the Samsung customer service center for live troubleshooting and further assistance. We look forward to helping you out. --Mr. S

It doesn't play blu-ray discs, but you can get an external blu-ray player which uses a USB connection. There is one on sale at TigerDirect right now which should work for you. Here's the link, below. You may even be able to find better and/or less expensive ones with a bit of shopping around.http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3170776&CatId;=3634

You might try upgrading the firmware on your current player -- that may solve your disc compatibility problems
