Blueray Player problem
Not sure if anyone would have an answer to this problem or not, but I have this blueray player that's suddenly stopped working properly. Here is a photo of the info on it: http://picpaste.com/1541a7f42252a550...134ac5a2c3.jpg We finished watching a movie one evening and then my brother changed the settings to "update automatically". Ever since then the machine has been stuck in a loop of "Up ..... Open ..... turns itself off .... turns itself on again ... Up .... etc.," It was connected to the internet so it should have updated, but we finally had to just unplug it and put our old blueray player where this one used to be. It works fine. We've tried to find a solution on the web, but have come up empty, and can't find a 'reset' button on the stinking machine. Should we turn it into a boat anchor or is there a way to reset it to get it out of that loop? -- Maggie |

Keep it disconnected from the internet and try to re-start with disc in it. HTH |

I've looked everywhere for the manual that came with it, and no joy. Did you change the settings back to prevent automatic updates. Does it work without looping over and over? I can't help you but, perhaps, there is not and update (chip flashes) available but the system is constantly checking? Link above: "Latest Downloads - Unfortunately, this information isn't currently available for this product." I'd change the settings back and fire your brother |
