Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else has had an issue trying to play Cars 2 on BluRay using a BeoVision 7-55?

Bought one copy from Amazon and it would not play. Bought another one from Tesco tonight and again it won't play.

I get to the menu where I choose English then all I get is just the Disney Castle screen and the moving water/refelction.
The counter goes up in mins but even after 5 mins nothing happens.

Both discs play on my Sony BluRay player so it can only be the BeoVision.

Anyone have any ideas? Firmware issue maybe? Doddy BluRay player? (Always have thought it was slow and pausing/playing is a total pain).

 

Thanks
Mark 🙂

There is a software update to cure this problem that occurs with Disney Bluray discs. You local dealer can do this for you by either burning the software upgrade to a disc or via an ethernet connection.

I'd stick with this player - fewer issues, support for decoding DTS HD etc. Anyway, as the posters say above, it's a sw issue which was updated recently. If you connect your BV7's ethernet port to a wired internet connection, you can update the sw yourself (which is the easiest and quickest approach).

Before the recent sw update, my BV7 Blu-ray play skipped scenes on some movies and wouldn't play others at all!

Hi,

Thanks for the replies.
The Sony player is in my garage attached to a 50" Plasma 😳 (I'm into building race cars in my spare time so I have a full cinema set up in there, TV, BluRay, Surround sound ect - Odd I know!)

My cables are built into the wall but I will try swapping the one that goes to the Apple TV or X Box to see if that makes a difference.

I've hated the BluRay player since I bought it. The picture quality is fantastic but it is so slow nad the menu functions are pants with all of the remotes I have had.

I do already have an ethernet cable connected so I will try this option first (assuming my local store don't say they will "pop round" to fix it - as this is what usually happens everytime I have an issue 🙂)

This issue was first reported by a Scottish Dealer, unfortunately it took a while for Struer to properly understand the problem. The original complaint merely said, -

"BV7-55 BluRay disney play Disney"!
