DVD Player Subjective to Netflicks Discs...

My DVD Player has recently stopped playing some DVD's. While it continues to play others from my private collection of movies that usually comes in box sets. And the 50 Movie packs, they play quite well. It is the Netflicks that I am having trouble with. I have used a disc cleaner to clean, before and after. And washed the discs with mild detergent soap, and gently wiped dry. Any suggestions why this is happening....4 out of the last 5 movies Netflicks sent does not play. And if I need to get a cheap DVD player and hook it up (don't watch media TV)is that possible with a TV Unit that has built in DVD/VCR player? Thanks.

Never mind. I finally bought a Colby DVD Player from Fred Meyers....for under $30.00, hooked it up and now enjoy unlimited movies, and yes even Netflicks.

Still works very well but recently some disks just suddenly stop playing. What could be the reason?

Dirty laser.. scratches on discs..and sometimes laser diodes get weak and then will have issues playing discs. Some NEWER discs are a different format and the player will need a firmware update (connect to internet via Ethernet cable to get updates)

Hi, You can try testing the discs on a different player. The problem may be with a scratched disc or damaged disc. The player seems to be fine if it works with other discs. In any case, I have provided a link to the player's manual: http://tv.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/jvc/jvc_xv_n320b_xvn320b.html

Dvd player can't play blue ray disk

If you have an earlier model Compaq, it most likely a DVD ROM player. Check the printing on the drive tray, if it says DVD ROM then it cannot play Blu ray disks.

Freezes in the middle of playing a dvd

1. You say in the (middle?) That in itself is subjective, Does it stop at an 'exact' specific point after playing for x number of minutes? Is it the same point for any DVD being played, or does it stop at a random point? - Does it stop when playing DVD--R or +R or what type of Disc? - more details helps to find a solution.
Also it is never necessary to use cleaning discs - Do that and it will wreck your player - and may never read a disc again. Using cleaning discs could have caused your problem. Use cleaning discs only for practicing how far you can throw them.

DVD deterioration

I would blame it on the DVD player. They are fickle when it comes to playing burned discs. Try playing the disc in your computer. If does the same thing there, the disc is garbage. You can also try burning at a slower speed, sometimes this helps. I would also try to avoid using DL (dual-layer) discs.
