My HP Mediasmart will not play my BluRay DVD's I have BluRay drive

My HP desktop will not play my latest Bluray DVD's.  It will play my older Bluray's but not my new ones.
I put in a new Bluray disk.  The Mediasmart window pops up and asks me if I want to  - Check for updates.  It doesn't matter if I check yes or no it won't go any farther and play the movie.  It freezes.  Then when I push play the window flickers and then the same mini window asks the same question - Do you want to check or updates?  No matter what I click nothing happens.  I push play and the whole thing starts all over again.
Please help.
Thanks
Daniel

Mine is doing the samething and like to know what to do.

  • My Macbook Pro will not play a Disney DVD (Howl's Moving Castle). It says supported disc not available but it plays on my cousin's Macbook Pro.

    Basically my macbook pro will not play this one DVD. It is a dvd that is fresh out of the package that I order from amazon and it is the second dvd that I have tried. Amazon sent me a new dvd when there were problems but both are not working but my laptop will play all other dvds, including the bonus dvd that came with the dvd i am trying to watch. I tried playing the dvd in my cousin's macbook pro and it worked. I already repaired discs permissions and restarted my computer but i cannot get this dvd to play for the life of me. When I put it in the disc drive the laptop buzzes for a few seconds then spits it out. When I open dvd player before hand and hit play it gives the message "supported disc is not available"

    The laptop is about 2 years old, and I watch a lot of movies on it. I would think I had set the region but I could be wrong. I'm in North America wouldn't that be the preset? Also, how would you go about changing or double checking that. Also if a movie was from a collaboration of disney and studio ghibli (japanese studio) would that mean I have to change the region just for that one movie? It would be weird if it were that way because I have another movie by disney and studio ghibli, and it plays, for that matter so does the bonus feature disc that came with this movie....

  • I've burnt a slideshow of my photos onto a DVD disc but it will not play on my DVD player. It plays ok on my acer laptop. I burnt the same disc with slideshow from my old dell computer

    I've burnt a slideshow of my photos on my Apple Mac to a DVD+REW disc but it will not play on my DVD player or on a combined DVD/TV. However it will play on my wife's Acer laptop. I then erased the disc & burned another slideshow from my ancient Dell computer onto the same disc &it played just fine on everything. So it seems the problem ids somewhere in the Apple Mac process. Any ideas?

    If you want to play material on a dedicated DVD Video hardware player, you must create a DVD video disc, and you must use a DVD authoring application.The software creates files that the DVD video player can play and will burn them to a recordable DVD disc. Examples of applications are:
    Roxio Toast and iSky DVD Creator
    Mac's used to be supplied with iDVD authoring software but Apple discontinued it in 2011.
    Thanks for that.  Will need to check iSkysoft out.  I am in the process of looking for a VisualHub replacement/backup.  Especially when it comes to ease of use.  Toast is ok.  Just looking for something along the lines of VH. 

  • I made a movie on iMovie and went to burn to DVD and of course I could not...contacted Apple and they said to download an app to help solve this problem...i did..so I could finally burn a DVD, but it will not play on my DVD player...HELP!!!

    I made a movie on IMovie and went to burn it to a DVD ...I could not do this so I contacted Apple..they had me download an App and then I could make a DVD...but it will not play on my DVD player...does anyone know how I can solve this problem.. I purchased this to make DVD's and now I can not do that!!

    This is a known issue.  It really comes down to two key factors - what type of DVD are you burning to + what type of DVD player you have.
    This article will help.  It's lengthy and can be technical in some parts but should shed some light on your problem.

  • I transferred photos from my camera to my computer and created a burn folder.  I recorded the burn folder on a DVD but it will not play on my DVD player.  What am I doing wrong?

    I transferred photos from my camera to  burn folder on my macbook Pro.  Made a DVD from the burn folder but it will not play on my DVD player.  What am I doing wrong?

    How did you do this burn? Did you use a program like iDVD?  A DVD player requires that the data on the DVD is recorded in the proper format: MPEG-2.  A program like iDVD will do this.  There are other programs available that can do the proper coding (Roxio 'Toast' for example), but iDVD has the most features and is easy to use.  It is no longer available from Apple, but if you search on Amazon, you can find 'iLife 11', a suite of programs including iDVD.  It will function properly on Apple's current operating system, but it cannot make a High-Definition (Blue-Ray) presentation.  It is Standard Definition only, as are all regular DVD's. One good way to present photos on a TV is to make a slidesow in iPhoto, then export that slideshow to iDVD, where it will be properly formatted for a DVD player.  Or, iDVD can make its own slideshow of up to 99 photos.  HTH.

  • Burned a dvd but, it will not play on my dvd player for tv

    I created a slideshow with itunes music added in iphoto.  I tried the recommended free "burn for mac" software download.  It burned a dvd but, this will not play on my dvd player for tv.  What software title can i purchase that will burn my iphoto slideshow to a dvd that will play on typical home dvd player for tv AND on a windows pc?

    some dvd players are very picky on what they will play some only
    play dvd+r some only dvd-r some can't play dvd+rw and or dvd-rw
    dvd burnable is a pretty fragmented std.

  • IMovie 11 will not play any of the projects I have created over the past several months.  It will play iMovie events.  Anyone else having this problem?  Please help - Thanks

    Movie 11 will not play any of the projects I have created over the past several months.  It will play iMovie events.  Anyone else having this problem?  Please help - Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestion...
    I just got back from the Apple Store for the second visit with the Mac Genius to try to resolve the problem. 
    First visit we trashed the iMovie 11 application and reinstalled iMovie and ran a software update. Upon relaunching we were pleased that all projects and events ran perfectly from both the HD and the Drobo. 
    After lugging my 27" iMac back home and restarting it the same problem appeared.  I returned to the Apple store for a second visit. This time I left the iMac at the store overnight.  The apple service guys were able to duplicate the problem and wiped my hard drive.  There appears to be a bug with iMovie 11 (not confirmed) and an elevated report was submitted to Apple engineers. 
    I am leaving my "old" projects and events on the external drive unless I need to import them.  I am not going to restore from back up and will use a "clean" version of iMovie11.  No guarantees the problem won't come back.  This issue consumed a TON of my time.... hopefully Apple can fix iMove11.

    Hi Kevin,
    Have you authorized the Computer to your Apple ID?
    If not, sign on to iTunes.
    Then got to the Store menu option at the top of the screen (CTL+B if it is not showing), and click on it to display the dropdown, and select Authorize this computer.
    If that doesn't work, then sign on your Dad's iTunes ID and repeat the Authorization process.
    Cheers,

  • HT4718 After burning a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD, it will not play on my DVD player OS X 10.9.4

    iMac 27' OS X 10.9.4 I burned a slideshow from iPhoto export to a DVD and now it will not play back on anything. The player said Unknown disc. What can i do?

    I do find that using one of these programs will reduce the sharpness of the photos.
    Granted, I've never used iPhoto - I use Photo to Movie for slideshows and various versions of iMovie for videos, but my pics are excellent quality and my videos are shot in 1080p (better camera)  or 720p (small camera) and the results are superb on my TV using both iDVD and Toast. However, I do not encode in iDVD, I simply use it to add a theme and menus. The encoding is done by Photo to Movie, or iMovie 06 HD (the only version ever to process losslessly) and either/both are imported into iDVD as a complete .mov, or Toast.
    Since using those methods, I've never had a problem with the sharpness or crispness of my footage. My eyes cannot discern a difference between my "production" and true HD (unless of course I shook the camera while shooting, LOL).

  • MacBook Pro will not play or recognize dvd

    MacBook Pro will not play or recognize dvd

    It could be something wrong so i would sugest going to eBay and buying the same model you have that is listed for parts. These are usually cheap and most parts can still be used. Chances are that the disc drive will work because the "For Parts" means the computer does not work and the disc drive does not affect the computer's working order.

  • My USB Super Drive will not Play Red Box DVDs, Why?

    Can anyone explain why my USB super drive will not play RedBox DVDs?

    What Mac are you using with the USB SuperDrive?
    Is this USB SuperDrive a third party drive or Apple's USB SuperDrive?
    If this optical drive is Apple's own external USB SuperDrive, this only works with newer Macs that have no built-in optical drive any longer and WILL NOT work with older Macs that came with built-in optical drives.
    Is the Red Box DVD a standard DVD or Blu-Ray DVD disc?

    You can see it, its rather a slow 7 mins as I am drawing in real time, but you can hurry it by whooshing through if you like, you see the subject of the drawing towards the end to compare with the drawing.

  • TS1382 my ipod will not play any format of film i have tried mp4 and .mov and it says this format not supported what is the problem

    i have an ipod classic and i have tried to put films on but every format i try it keeps saying thei format not supported i have tried mp4 and .mov and it will not take it anyone got any suggestions on what format to use and the best way to convert films

    If these problem videos are already stored in your iTunes library, try using the iTunes built in convert to convert the file to an even friendlier iPod format.  To use it, highlight the video in iTunes and choose Advanced -> Create iPod or iPhone version from the drop down menu.  When the conversion process has completed, try syncing the new version over to your iPod Classic.
