Just bought BD-P1200 Help!! - Blu-ray Forum

Curry24 · 07-25-2007, 02:32 AM

Hi, I just purchased a refurbished Samsung BD-P1200. I connected it via HDMI to my toshiiba tv. When I power on the unit it just sits there and says "LOAD" It never comes up on the tv and nothing changes with the player. Did I do something wrong or did I get a bad player? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You did something horribly wrong!!! You hooked up a BD player to a Tosh. TV!!!! LOL

Sorry, I couldn't resist...

I just checked mine & it say "hellow" & then goes to to "load" & stays there & mine works fine + on the tv screen "Samsung blu ray" will pop up for about 5 sec then it goes blank & stay that way until I open the tray.
Do you have a BD to put in & play???

& for the screen being blank, open the tray & close it. Should say "no disc" & on the TV screen it will say Samsung blu ray. or hit the menu button on the remote.

The tray wont open, it just seems to be stuck, displaying load.

well that is a problem.

does it respond to the remote at all? Check the batteries of the remote to see if there good or bad

It will turn on/off by using the remote but nothing else works on the remote or the unit except power.

try holding the FF (fast forword) buton on the remote for 5-10 sec. I read somewhere there is a reset but I am having a hard time finding it.

You have to press the forward button THAT'S ON THE UNIT, NOT THE REMOTE for 5 seconds to reset. I've done it a few times on mine unit.

Samsung told me to do the same reseting thing and it didn't work so this morning it got sent off to Samsung for repair. Thanks guys!
