Xbox One 4k incompatible discs as of Dec 2017

[richieb1971]

A friend of mine is having difficulties playing the Spiderman Homecoming 4k disc sold by HMV UK. The disc just whirs around and nothing happens.

I did a quick google and it seems its not an isolated case with many complaining of Oblivion and Lucy being already documented problematic cases.


Of course, if you put the same disc in another dedicated 4k player it works fine.


Shouldn't we have a thread at Bluray.com for this type of thing? I am guessing a lot of you have doubled up your Xbox gaming with a 4k player of UHD discs?

Spiderman Homecoming UHD works fine in my Xbox One S.

Perhaps its a bad disc then. I noticed in the threads at other forums that the problem gives an error code for the Universal discs, where as my friend says he gets a blank screen.

Xbox One X here and Spiderman Homecoming works just fine.

Xbox One S and while I haven't popped in my HMV copy yet, my other standard copy plays fine.

[jan_reinhardt]

my XBox One X wont recognise both the Planet Earth II UHD discs (standard Blu-ray works fine).
Can anyone confirm or even better got the U.K. discs working on his machine?

Thx

All these play in my Xbox One S. haven’t had a UHD disc that didnt

[xSAMCOx]

Been loads of bad discs universal replaced a few of my. Then they played fine on the one.

Ive tried every 4K disc in the X just in case and they have all been fine. UK and US discs.

[Blu_Ray_UK2007]

No issues with my XBOX One s or X with any of the titles mentioned.

[bradnoyes]

Happen to have all those movies and I just tested them on my X. All worked fine.

I had problems getting Man of Steel to work, but got it going eventually. (Xbox One X)

There's no way I'd use that as my 4K disc player and it costs double

Cool story bro, "would stubiedoo use the XBox One X as a 4K player when his signature clearly shows he has a chubby for Playstation" is not the point of the thread...

Back on topic. The HMV Spiderman 3D disk gave me issues, but the 4K was fine. I haven't tried the others as I use the Oppo as my main player.

The only problem I've ever had with XBox One S as a 4K player was with the Stranger Things blu rays. A software update to the blu ray player fixed that.

I think having a thread is a good idea. At least we could compare notes.

[thekillerichi]

Xbox one S and Star Trek is the only one I’m having problems with.

I got the Kingsman 2 Pack, and I can't get Kingman: The Secret Service to play in my Xbox One X. The Golden Circle was totally fine, though.

I've had issues playing a few discs, but found that reinstalling the blu ray app seems to fix the issue.

I had the same Problem with Spider-Man: Homecoming.
The disc tried to boot and then the Blu-Ray-Disc-Player-Program hung itself.
Watched Deadpool instead.
After I finished the movie I tried Spider-Man: Homecoming again, and lo and behold, it worked!
Seems to be a shitty laser in the XBoneS
