Unfortunately it sounds like your blu ray laser has become faulty. Unfortunately this is a very common problem for the PS3 and there is not much that can be done about it. New lasers can be bought but they are difficult to fix. You could buy a new drive from somewhere like ebay at a cost of around £60. They are much easier to fit than the lasers themselves but you must make sure you keep the circuit board on your blu ray drive and swap it to the replacement drive as this is paired to the motherboard and will not work if it is not with the original motherboard.

Hope this helps and thanks for using FixYa

What do I do about my Panasonic Blue ray player BD 871 not playing Blue Ray Discs?

The laser mechanism has lost its ability to focus properly. Not cost effective to repair. Get a new one.

How do i unlock my LG BH7520 blue ray dvd player to play multi region or region 2 thank you

With your set on and without disc in the tray:

1. Press PLAY from your remote control
2. Press the following button sequence: 1590 2379 390
3. Press PLAY again

This will release the region verification in your player(region free). However, some DVDs (multi region in particular) will not play, since they require region detection from the player unit.

I have three blue- ray disc which will not play. Have return these disc several times to merchant for exchnage with no success.

Your firmware seems to be an older version. Since the discs that you are nameing are asking for Blu-Ray 1.2 support.
Samsung has provided updated firmware to support these discs. Follow the instructions on the link.
