I found an article in Bluraydigest.com that spells it out loud and clear.

Fox has decided in an effort to stop fraud and coping of movies to put a new security patch in thier latest movies. It appears it started around mid 2008.

Fox is pointing the finger at the manufatures stating that it is the manufactures responsibility to update thier Firmware updates so the players can play these new and improved movies. I have not had any success with emails to Panasonic regarding thier first generation blu ray players and when an update may come around.

I can understand a company does not want thier product to be copied or stolen. I am ok with that. What I am not ok with is that it appears that they did not get together with the manufactures first to allow them to create the firmware updates before these disks came to market.

Fox at this time is losing money from me if I can't play thier movies

Do you expect FOX to contact every single manufacturer?

Your issue is with Panasonic. Try contacting them via telephone or regular mail. At many companies, e-mail is ignored.
If this has been going on since mid-1980, it does not appear likely that your problem will ever be resolved. You may need to upgrade your blu-ray player (This is a risk with all new technology ).
