    played fall out without issue one night. Turned Xbox off after saving and exiting to save screen. Next time I turn it on it asked for disk when I tried to play. Turned Xbox off and on. Tried other games previously played. Won't read those disks either. Tried
    new game not yet installed. Said it couldn't read disk.

    Plays games saved on Xbox no problem.

    GTA V disc will not play because the disc cannot be read

    My xbox keeps saying that my GTA V disc (and no other games) is unreadable. I even tried using my friends disc and it still won't work. I have also previously played GTA V on this console

    Did you try power cycling the console? (Hold down power button for 10 seconds)

    It might be that you optical drive is failing.

    I've had this issue since launch, just hold the disc until you feel it trying to get pulled in and then hold it a little longer then let it go. It works every time for me.

    Xbox one S blu ray player problem

    I have the same problem since the last xbox one update. DVD movie and Xbox 360 disks won't work, only bluray disk. I can't install new retrocompatibility games or play with current installed games with disk. Maybe, something wrong with an update.
