My F85 has been amazing at playing anything you throw at it in the way of single layer burned DVDs. -Rs, +Rs, ....any manufacturers blank DVD plays fine. However it won't play a duel layer burned disc. I pop it in and it comes up with the selection menus and when you choose to start the movie, the player freezes up like a virgin at a porno convention. My question is 2 fold. There is a back level of firmware which makes the player "region free" Would that do anything to bolster the playing of duel layer burned discs?
Would a duel layer disc from another manufacturer play in this player or is there no hope that this player will play duel layer discs until they possibly come out with a -R duel layer disc, if that is in the works right now. Any help would be appreciated
