T2 skynet problems

[AKORIS]

My apologies if this has been covered but I cannot find any resolution--

I have the Costco BDX-1 (Sony 350) blu-ray player and for the first time--
I cannot play a blu-ray-- The T2 Skynet edition--

it takes a very long time to load-- I finally get the menu to select which
movie version I want, it brings up the Studio Canal screen and then simply
freezes 23 seconds into it--

Is this movie not possible to watch unless you have a profile 2.0 player or
will a firmware upgrade (already requested this morning from Sony) make this disc playable. I see user comments here saying "I have no problem watching
this disc" or "it won't play" but none of them tell WHAT kind of player they have or offer any resolutions (that I can find anyway)

help??

do you mean a BDP-BX1?

if so...make sure you have the latest firmware
v13 or 15, i don't remember the number, is what i had. its up to 19 now though i think
it should play
even though it takes a hell of a long time to load

i played it on my BDP-BX1 a couple weeks back before i sold it and it played fine

yes, that's the model I meant. I ordered the latest firmware this morning from Sony-- so you think that will solve the issue? Did you upgrade the
firmware on yours I'm assuming? I have never done a firmware upgrade on this model and have had it for over a year...

also-- may I ask-- are you upgrading to a newer model?

yes, i updated mine to v15, i only update when i have problems with a disc so thats why i didn't update it past that.

so you're still running the software it shipped with?
thats v07 i believe
v10 activates bd-live capabilities if your interested in that
v15 will allow you to play T2, but if you requested it from sony they will probably send you v19 which is the most recent (just checked to make sure)

you could burn it onto a disc you know instead of waiting for sony to get it to you.

i was perfectly happy with my player, but i decided to buy a PS3 to start gaming again and figured i didn't need the BX1 anymore so i sold it to a friend of mine for $150

Thank you for the tips-- i really appreciate it--

It looks like this upgrade should take care of things-- maybe it
will also load other movies faster-- I can always hope anyway

Take care
