  1. Disk reading issues


    Hi i have a issue with couple of games I have bought they can not be read or downloaded at all does not come up with any error code at all. xbox one s but no issue with reading any other new or old games after sitting there and having a good look at the games as I was thinking maybe disk drive needed servicing or something, I have noticed The 4 games that do not work all all not from the eu I purchased them from ebay. I know two of the games did previously work a long time ago but (that maybe we'll have been on previously owned xbox one) now do not on one s. Could this still be a service job needed or something where these disk cannot be played in UK. australia, Germany and Poland they are from if this helps. Has anyone heard of this and do they know if they should work from these regions or not.

    :)

    Disk reading issues

    Well, according to Microsoft:

    "Game discs for the Xbox console are not coded to regions"

    So, on that basis, game discs from another region shouldn't make a difference (it would be different if they were movie discs)

    If the drive is simply not recognising there is a disc inserted, then it may be the particular laser diode thingy is malfunctioning....the Xbox has 2 diodes: One for reading DVD discs and one for reading Blu-Ray discs. If the games are Blu-Ray discs, try playing a Blu-Ray movie disc (if you have one to hand)...if it plays fine, then the Laser Diode is working and it's something else

    Have had a quick look at my 3 disc games (one Xbox One, 2 Xbox 360) and, yes, the XB1 disc has 2 rings there.

    However, on the picture side of the disc, there is a silver ring around the hole...on Xbox 360 games, you will see XBox 360 in the Silver area or Xbox One depending on the platform

    Just to add these discs are xbox one games to all have difrent some have the 2 ring codes and some have 1 ring barcodes and the ones that have the 1 barcodes don't work but are definitely xbox one games and a lot are bought from shop as have just gone through massive collection of games and found more that do not work that I have not played in a while.

    From what I understand, Xbox One games are always Blu-Ray discs...so, if the games are XBox One games, then it sounds like it's an issue with the discs themselves if the console will play a Blu-Ray movie without issue.

    If the discs are Xbox 360 discs (DVD discs), then it sounds like the Laser diode thing is faulty if non-game DVDs sometimes have issues

    Disk reading issues

    Hi all thanks for help have tried blu Ray disc that works perfect. And thinking about it sometimes a normal dvd decides one day it wants to work and another it does not want to work not sure about that. I don't know how to tell if the game is a blu Ray or not I just know they are xbox one games compatability and one is even xbox one x series compatible to. And unfortunately I do not have another xbox to try. The other xbox in home is disc free.
