    unable to play DVDs


    Hi all, hoping someone can shed a bit more light on an issue I've had since bought the console last year.

    Basically, the Xbox One does not read any DVD that I own. I have the Blu Ray/DVD player app installed however when I put a DVD in, the console simply does not acknowledge that a disk is in there.

    I've read a couple of very old forum posts that never seem to have an answer to the problem. The console plays game disks absolutely fine and oddly enough it will play region free Blu Ray disks, which leads me to believe there is some issue with the region
    settings perhaps?

    I really don't want to be sending the Xbox to Microsoft for repair so I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue - if so please post here to get some awareness on the problem and if you have a fix for this then please don't be shy unable to play DVDs :)

    many thanks

    Jim

    :)

    How are you connecting the xbox to the TV?

    Not all HDMI ports on your TV will be HDCP enabled, so try each port until it works.

    Unable to play DVD.

    My xbox works perfect while playing games, no problems.

    First off, i have the Gears of War edition Xbox Slim. When i try to play say Lord of the Rings Fellowship of the Ring, or Friday the 13th, i get the xbox 360 symbol with the movies sound, and the error "Secure HDCP link can't be found".

    any ideas folks, or is my 40 inch Sony Bravia LCD TV crap?

    I have the digital license and the dvd as well

    But why is it like that nVo Fusion? I mean the borderlands 2 dvd has 5.7 for a install. And borderlands 2 marketplace has 5.54 install.

    -

    I have the game for the dvd. I should wait wait. Now I know why?

    If I install the markplace borderlands 2 game has 5.54 install. Then play it on the dvd. The dvd would be running still as i'm playing the game from the dvd, even though the game was installed from marketplace. If the dvd game was installed then I played
    borderlands2 the dvd wouldn't be running.

    -

    Now if I installed the dvd game of borderlands 2 and woke up wanted to play the game with out the dvd as I have the license on my account. I'm unable to. Same license but different format. That's why the markplace borderlands 2 5.54 install is different
    then 5.7 install from the dvd format.

    Is this what your trying to type to me?

    Blu Ray Player will not read movies

    Unable to insert DVD or Blu-ray movie. Restarted Xbox, powered off and unplugged. Still nothing.

    Playing DVD

    Hey there! From what I'm seeing in the Settings menus and during playback, there is no option to change the aspect ratio of a movie. If you would like this feature added, I would recommend suggesting it at
    http://xbox.uservoice.com

    Also, that error you got has been happening to me too. It seems to be an issue with the forums.
