    Xbox One console only reads Blu-ray movie discs


    I have an older version Xbox One console. I'm part of the preview program and I believe after a few updates the firmware I got messed up and it will no longer read 360 backwards compatibility discs and it will not read any movie DVDs. It will however read
    Blu-ray discs without a problem. I also have an issue with Xbox One DVD type titles as well. I've already gone through all the steps of checking to make sure the region matches the console and discs, excetera. I've already done the hard reset, switched power
    modes, the whole nine yards. I'm convinced that it is something to do with the firmware operating the actual Blu-ray DVD drivers.

    :)

    Xbox One imported from other region

    Each Xbox One console is manufactured for a specific Blu-ray and DVD region, following international standards. The Xbox One console can play Blu-ray discs and DVDs that are sold in the same region as the console.

    Some Blu-ray discs and DVDs are not region-encoded or are coded to all regions. Region-free Blu-ray discs and DVDs will play on any Xbox One console.

    I need proof that it's ok to play movies on xbox. My mother won't let me watch movies on my xbox 360.

    No worries, both the 360 and the Xbox One can play movie discs.

    The 360 is unable to play Blu Ray but does handle movie discs with no problems.

    The Xbox One can play both regular and Blu Ray discs.

    If your mother requires proof that movies can be played on the console you just need to show her the Movie and TV app on the console.

    Xbox One X recognizes no backwards compatible 360-disc / triggers no download

    Hi,

    Sounds like the laser in your console's Blu-ray drive has a hardware issue.

    To test if your Xbox One X has issues reading discs, try playing a DVD movie disc. If can't read DVD movie discs either then your console has a hardware fault.

    Note: It must be a DVD movie disc, not a Blu-ray movie disc.

    There are two lasers in the Blu-ray drive, one for reading Blu-ray discs and one for DVD discs. Xbox One games use Blu-ray and the 360 console used a DVD drive.

    Xbox 360 game Blackops 2 game disc not launching or loading up on my Xbox One X

    Hi,

    It could be that your Xbox One Blu-ray drive has a hardware fault, specifically with the diode it uses to read DVD discs. To test this, try playing a DVD movie in your console. The disc you test must be a DVD movie disc, not a Blu-ray movie disc.

    If the DVD doesn't read, but Xbox One and Blu-ray discs read fine then your console has a hardware fault and can no longer read Xbox 360 and DVD discs. There isn't a user fix for this, they only option is get your console repaired. Sorry.

    360 games on xbox1

    Hi,

    Can you check if your console can read DVD discs please? To do this just insert a DVD movie disc. If it works, the console will load the Blu-ray Player app (make sure this this downloaded from the Xbox Store).

    Note that the disc you try must be a DVD not an Xbox One or a Blu-ray movie disc.

    If your console won't start the DVD movie disc then this indicates a fault with your Xbox One Blu-ray drive. These drives contain two lasers, one for DVD's and one for Blu-ray discs. Xbox One disc games are on Blu-ray, Xbox 360 games are DVD's.

    Reading dvds

    Hi,

    The optical drive in the Xbox One contains two lasers, one for reading DVD discs and another to read Blu-rays. If DVD movies BC Xbox 360 can no longer be read, but Xbox One games (which use BD discs) and Blu-ray movie discs work, your drive has a hardware
    fault.

    The only options you have a either set up a repair with Microsoft or buy a new console.

    0x8082000c, Can't play Xbox 360 Games

    Hi,

    Verify that your consoles drive is functioning. Try playing a DVD movie disc, not a Blu-ray disc.

    If your console will not play DVD then the drive has hardware fault.

    There are two lasers in the blu-ray drive. One for reading DVD and Xbox 360 games and another for Xbox One and Blu-ray discs.
