Panasonic UB820/UB9000 4K UHD Blu-ray player

[sapiendut]

MOD discs are problematic even on my Magnetar 800. They burned the disc at a very hogh speed (instead of the max speed of 4x for a dual layer BD-R). Even of it plays, 3-4 years later they become unreadable. I had several MOD titles that can’t be played on any of my player including my Pioneer BD-R reader. It shows the folder but the data can’t be reas.

Now I feel better about ripping my discs for No Blade of Grass, and The Outfit

No other 4K discs have had this issue so I know it isn't my specific player. I know this is a MOD disc from universal so I'm wondering if these MOD discs have issues on certain players or the quality control on these discs are just that bad.

Wait Promising Young Woman is an MOD disc? I don't own it nor do I plan to but wouldn't have guessed that was a MOD title.

MOD doesn't automatically mean a burned disc, it just means its not available in stores, online only. Besides, I don't think there are any burned 4K discs.

Yeah, Promising Young Women is a pressed disc. Plays fine in my ub9000. Bought when released (and have the corrected version as well - both play fine).

Well, of course another Blu-ray that played perfectly on the Oppo doesn't on the UB9000.

Director's Cut
Though, it does have a strange mark that goes from the center to the edge. Could only notice under a different light. Looks like some goo may've dripped or the pressers fail to completely cover the disc. May the folks at Shout! whom insist these are 3rd party problems, unless you buy direct from them, get incurable cancer.

MOD discs mean a Sony intern made them on their lunch break

I guess the UB9000 doesn't like Sony UHDs. So far the Resident Evil films will keep going black screen with sound when they load the discs. It's an easy fix, but a bit ridicules. I just change the input and go back.
