LG bd 300 blu-ray player: Has any one else had that problem?

My BD-300 does as it's supposed to, start up where it left off after the stop button. Do you have the most recent firmware update? (not sure if it would affect it, but it's a good first step) Good luck

There are no further firmware updates for this model. I ran into a similar problem, although my unit wouldn't load a Blu-Ray at all, much less play it. After much frustration looking for a non-existent solution, I got a nice Panasonic Blu-Ray player - that does Internet TV *much* better, I might add - and now can enjoy my Blu-Rays while still using the rest of the Samsung unit's "home theatre" functions, which pretty much boil down to the sound system at this point. The short answer is yes, it's crap.

I have the same problem. I bought this expensive unit and looked forward to watching the Band of Brothers series in Blu-ray. It does not work. What a big disappointment. Way to go LG for not keeping the updates going. I may return this unit for something else.

I haven't had that issue with mine and I have been using it for years. Does it happen with multiple blu-ray disks or just one? When I first got mine a few years ago I do remember having some issues with it but I was able to contact support and they walked me through the steps to correct it. If it is happening with multiple disks, I would suggest calling them. Their customer support number is 800-726-7864. Have the product model number on hand as well as connected to the internet through the Ethernet port. Be prepared for a lengthy call. I wouldn't suggest calling them until you have a good hour or so to devote. My experience was pleasant and I hope yours will be too. Good luck!

Channels? It sounds like problem is in the source, tv, cable tv, Blu-Ray. Try using optical input, if is posible.

LG BD270 Blu-ray Disc PlayerI experience picture freezing after 17 minutes on the LG. Perform a skip back and the picture would freeze again, etc. Tried powering off and playing again, still the same problem. Any one else have this or is it unique to this unit?

No, no problem with that. Blue ray player messes things up sometimes though.

I've had the 93 since the preorder in November and it has played every disc I've inserted with no problems. I have DVDs, BDs, and SACDs. But I bet your LG played everything fine when it was new.

I have not had any problems. Perhaps your dvds are blue ray which my TV does not support. Sorry, I can't help.

When I first bought this unit, I had a lot of problems with freezing at various places. Several times, it would even feeze up and not power off. I would have to unplug the power cord and plug back in to use the unit. After several (4 or 5) firmware updates over several months, the problem appeared to have stopped. Then on 1/24/2014, a new problem - I put a rented copy of the blu-ray of "Captain Phillips" in to play and the screen would just go black intermittently. Sound was OK, just no picture. I finally stopped the BDT230 and moved the "Captain Phillips" blu-ray to my old Oppo unit and the movie played without a glitch. A few days later, the BDT230 froze again - it appeared that the old freezing problem had returned. Don't remember what I was doing at the time but, as in the past with this problem, I had to unplug the power cord and plug it back in to "un-freeze" the unit. Yesterday, I started to watch another movie on the BDT230 and a message appeared that there was a new firmware update - I installed it. Hopefully, this version will address my most recent problems with this unit.

Isnt that a shame? so you're saying that it will look grainy on any blue ray player? I wouldve thought any encoding problem wouldve been fixed by now, i mean 300 just came out on blue ray.Do stores offer refunds or something? Have you tried a different blue ray? or a different TV? Im going to take mine to my friends house and test it on his LCD TV.thxThank you.

I have and do; in fact, it's been the best Blu Ray player I've used for a computer. I have a Mac and use a downloadable player. Try Different software; if that doesn't work, it might be a faulty unit.

Yes same problem here exactly, contacted LG only to find out same thing you said. Bought mine in October 2009 and last month it stopped reading discs, any disc. POS is what this unit is. LG thank you for opening my eyes and I will never buy another product with anything LG stamped on it.

The LN52B630 isn't listed as a qualifying model for the free blu-ray player...how'd u guys make it work?!

I contacted Sony support and this is what they said:"I'm sorry that the resume playback feature of the Blu-ray Disc player does not work. Sometimes, the player may not resume playback depending on the disc or stop point."Not very helpful. Not sure yet if this happens on all BD disc but it happens on Casino Royal, which is Sony produced... Very lame IMO.

Mine was working great until a few weeks ago it quit playing BD's after upgrading the firmware to the 169 version. No problem with DVD's. I've done the firmware upgrades to version 179 and still having the same issue. Nothing on the Sony website about this issue.

Picked one of these up at best buy and it's definitely doing this. Doesn't happen through the blue-ray player, but the cable is a problem. Might just be a bad HDMI port, but with only two to start with, that's a problem for me. Probably going to take it back this week and purchase through amazon. Better price and similar service plan option for less money.
