Is it tacky to give away old blu-ray player and keep the new one?




i just am


I have a blu-ray player that is about a year old and it plays the blu-ray disk great but when it comes to the DVDs sometimes it freezes up or jumps to the next chapter when the freezing happens. Whenever that has happened I take the dvd out and put in a blu-ray disk and the machine doesn't hick up.

With that much said, I have bought a new blu-ray player because I couldn't resist the Black Friday deals. Now I have a old player that will play the blu-ray disk very well but it iffy on DVDs. Would it be tacky if I take the old player and give it to my brother not as a Christmas gift but just as a "Here I got a better one and its just laying around and you don't have one yet."?



Answer
No, it's not tacky. I'd let him know that it plays blu ray disks extremely well but can act a little funny when playing a dvd. If he wants it, he'll accept it, if he doesn't want it, he won't. But it's all in the offer. As long as you don't give it as a gift, then it's ok.

Answer
IF you never updated your blu-ray player's firmware, then you need to do that. Some time it not good enough just having the factory default firmware that comes along installed, when you buy that Blu-Ray player.

I never updated the firmware since I first got my Pioneer BDP-51FD in early 2009. It was not until last year in early June when I got the Blu-Ray of Terminator 2: Judgment Day Skynet Edition. It would stop at some point or freeze when loading the disc. So I check Blu-Ray player and disc forums for info. So that how I came to that I needed to do an update on the firmware. After that the disc played, eventhroughh that the only Blu-Ray that takes the longest to load. Well waiting it has a message saying it better to have a Blu-Ray player with a 2.0 profile.

Another thing that this year when the True Grit remake came out, it would not play on my Blu-Ray player. It keep having the messager on the HDTV screen and the player's little screen saying Can't play disc, Unknown disc. At a point I said go check online to see is there a new firmware for the player. There was and I updated the player. It still did not play or read the disc. The samemessagee showed up. Out of the 22 times I tryed, it worked like 3 different times. I tryed it on my friend's PS3 it worked right away. My uncle's room mate's Sony Blu-Ray it worked right away. After that just returned the disc and did not exchange for a new one to see if works in my player.

So do an update on your Samsung Blu-Ray player's firmware to see does that solve the problem. IF not see does it work on friends andrelativess Blu-Ray player. IF it does work, then it could be your player hates that one disc out of so may made, you might need to clean the Blu-Ray player's laser lens with a Blu-Ray player laser lens cleaner not one that say DVD laser lens. Maybe you got the player out so many made of the same kind that has a problem that why it not that disc and maybe certain other one. Last of all maybe your player hates every single one of the disc that is made for that movie (very rare it would happen). But to see if it is that way have to do an exchange from the store. Note not all models from the same company have that kind of problem.

On the movie Casino IF you are talking about the Robert De Niro, James Wood, Joe Pesci and Sharon Stone one, I have no problems with it when I got it back in early April way before the release of True Grit. I still don't have any problems with now.
