you should never turn the power off during a firmware update.

have you turned it completely off? (flip switch in the back)

were talkin about your PS3 right? or your dads 1200?

The BD-P1200 shuts off the screen(HDMI) when performing an update - Normal.(See manual FW update instructions)
IF you turned it off, you probably bricked the update and player.

btw:
The FW update takes about 30 minutes from the time you select Yes to Update and the screen goes blank.

Call Sammy.

Oh No.

Yeah man if you turned off the player during the update (yes the screen is supposed to go black.) your player is pretty much dead.

If its the samsung try calling them to see if they can fix it for you.

I have a problem with my Blu-Ray player, too..

it's from LG, connected to my Samsung TV, via HDMI... when I turn it on, it will show me the LG logo, and after that, it says...Connect the cable, or something like that
