sony bdv-e370 will not play bd25

[davechubb]

i have purchased a sony bdv-e370 and it will not play my bd25 rips. In the operating instructions it mentions bd-r cannot be played if postscrpits are recordable but i am not sure what this means i shrink all my bd-r with bd rebuilder they work on my sony bdp s370 can any help please

Specs on that unit say it will play BDR.

What is your procedure for burning a disc? Do you use ImgBurn? I think that "bd-r cannot be played if postscripts are recordable" means the disc must be finalized, but it's an odd way to put it. It's just possible your procedure is wrong and your BDP-S370 plays them anyway. I know my Sony BDP-S360 players are exceptionally tolerant.

Assuming your BDRs are okay, then perhaps the BDV-E370 is defective. Have you tried powering down and unplugging the player for awhile? I don't think I'd try a firmware update and thereby provide an excuse for refusing an exchange/refund.

Good luck.

first i rip with anydvd hd then shrink to 25g with bd rebuilder full movie then burn with imgburn they are all usally ok this is a brand new system it will play 50g bd-r movies ok

it might be the player doesn't like the brand of bdr you are using.

Put a BD-R you made that won't play in a PC that is either running at least Vista or has XP with this package installed:
UDF Reader
You can get that program from our Tools section.

Post a photo of what the directories/folders are on the top level of the disc. Let's make sure that you're really creating a BluRay format disc but it is certainly possible that your Sony doesn't like your media. I'd advise using Verbatim if you can find them. If you can't find Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden (you'll have to buy online) then maybe try Sony as long as the disc says "Made in Japan" on it.

sorry about being so long to reply but i have found the problem to be the new blu-ray burner is at fault it is a lite-on hbs112 the blu-rays will not pay on sony players but they are ok on other makes so i put my old lg ggw-h20l back and they now play on the sony player any ideas as to why do you think it may need a firmware update if there is one available
