Panasonic DMP-BD10A "No Disk" Problem? - Blu-ray Forum

aprest · 01-17-2009, 08:19 PM

Recently I started having problems playing Blu-ray disks on my DB10A. I t has the 2.5 firmware and is connected to a Panasonic 65 inch TH-65PF9UK commercial plasma (vintage 2006) using an HDMI to DVI cable. The player begins to read the disk and then reports that there is no disk. It plays standard DVDs with no problems. It is reporting an HDMI connection during start up. If I fiddle with it by opening and closing the draw or turning it OFF and then ON it sometimes will read the Blu-ray disk. I have not noticed a consistent pattern in what suddenly makes it work. I have tried four different Blu-ray disks and they all show the same problem. This is maddening! It used to work fine. HELP!

It's not unusual for these to die... yours may be on the verge...

Check out this thread, I recall some posts regarding similar issues:

Mine did that when it got too hot
I put a pair of spacers over and under
and resolved the problem

I should have said "No Read" instead of "No Disk". It is driving me nuts.

It does it from a cold start so heat doesn't seem to be the problem.

i have had two blu players die on me since january 2008, my sony bdps300 stopped reading blu-rays completely, then recently stopped reading dvd's, still does read dvds on rare occasions but only after a week or two of no use...... my panny bd-30 stopped reading dvd's most the time i get the no read or whatever, it still reads blu's no problem, knock on wood. im in the market now for my third blu-ray player in 1 year, i dont what the deal is all i know is if this one dies i wont be buying another one till they drop a hell of alot lower in price.
