My problem is with several of the newest ones. Avatar and How to Train Your Dragon. They will not play on my setup, The player tries to load and all I see is a black screen with nothing on it.
My setup is all Samsung: BD-C6900 player and UN55C8000 TV with the most up to date firmware available, from Oct. 25 for the player and Oct. 15 for the TV.
Has anyone else experienced these issues? Do you think Samsung will release updates that will fix these issues? How to Train your Dragon is recognized in my computer blu-ray player so the disk itself is fine.
Thanks for any input regarding these movies.

Make sure you have an HDMI cable that passes 10.2 gbps or above or they will not play. Also make sure you are not passing through a receiver. The Samsung 3D TV and player will not handshake with most receivers, even if they state that they are 3D compatible. I would recommend purchasing a Sony, Panasonic or Oppo 3D blu-ray player. The Samsung is downright awful. I work at Best Buy Magnolia, and nearly every one that we sell ends up being sent out for repair. No one can return them though because they are given away for free with the TV. :-(
