Easy Fix! Sony Blu-ray not reading? UBP X800 

Thanks a lot. With the help of your video, I found a way to open the players inside and found the lens. That was a little tricky. But I had nothing to loose. Now my man is buying isopropanol and I hope I can fix it! 🙂

Mine plays dvds perfectly but it won't read blu rays? It just started doing this about a week ago

Excellent info! Thanks much. Mine is All Region modified....for $350. Definitely want to fix it.

Great video, bought a x800m2 from the pawn shop for $140, disc drive didn’t play disc. Long story short, had bought a x800 month’s before for $25 at the pawn shop also, no issues. Ending up switching the disc drives on units, and returned the x800 and got my $140 back lol😅

What do you recommend using to clean a DVD with ? Our rental dealer used a liquid and wiped every disc before renting , but would not divulge what he was using on the rag .

I have a Sony BDP-S1700 that is several years old. I placed a disc onto the tray and because I thought it was not completely in the round compartment, I firmly pressed the disc and tray down. When I tried to play the disc, I got "Unable to play this disc". The BDP-S1700 won't play any other discs, so I think maybe because I pressed the disc and tray down, this caused the problem. Any suggestions on how to fix the problem?

I bought several Blu-ray discs from same source and some play and some do not. Is there a way to check on the computer to see if there's data on the disc? Or maybe I should try to play on a recently bought computer to see if it plays there

Hi there I have the same model and it’s only a couple months old, but it will only play dvds and not blue rey, do you have any suggestions?

I'm here for advice on a problem okay so I got this complete collection of the original animaniacs series on DVD and I put in the disc and about 5 seconds into the first episode My Blu-ray player all of a sudden froze and would not respond to remote commands. I then tried to eject the disc or turn off the player and turn it back on I managed to turn the Blu-ray player back on but there was just a black screen. So then I turned off the surge protector waited 2 minutes and turned it back on and finally got the player to eject the disc. Was it the disc or the player or the HDMI cable because I just used a HDMI cable from my PS4? Thanks any advice would be appreciated. It has never done this before so I don't know if it's the player or the HDMI cable I used but the disc did not seem to be scratched when I checked. There was this blue smudge but that was part of the artwork I thought and there were some small scratches on the artwork side of the disc but not the back that I know of.

Back in the day, there use to be a cd disk that you pop in and its suppose to clean for you instead of having to open the player itself, im wondering if those would work. Has anyone tried it?

Mine stopped reading Blu-ray’s too, just today. …I’m so annoyed right now…jeez 😞

Mines only plays dvd now but spits out blu-ray..is it a dirty lens or something else ?

I'm having to replace my player once a year. I've tried cleaning them and all. Always fail at 1 year.

Mines showing (?) And keeps saying can't read disc and the movies are new ... Went from working good lastnight to no longer reading the disc... And I haven't had this one that long either.

Mine is doesn't show anything in the screen 'no signal. Inunplug but same

Should 91% rubbing alcohol work? That's all they had at my Walmart

Mine will not play DVD but it will play Bluray. When you turn it on it shows everything on the TV but when you use the DVD it won't play but it will play a Bluray. Update is good just can't play DVD. Anyone know the fix to this?

My dvd player is not working

Is that all....? Lmao

Why is he calling a blu ray disc a CD?

Isopropyl

Dvd works fine but my player won’t recognise playable good discs . Thev play in my other player
