From few months i have p3600, till today, i dont have any problem, every BD plays fine (only one problem was, from time to time - freezes i short pause when i play dvd's. Till today i have 2.04 firmware. Today i buy Terminator Salvation blu-ray, entering home, put disc into p3600, a progress bar goes from start to end and... black screen. No menu, no nothing, i try few more times, and the same. So i download 2.05. Doing update (i have don few updates in my live), 10 minutes, passes, 20 minute passes and still tv says firmware is updating, dont turn the power... after 50 minutes, i pull the plug i power up my p3600... ufff everything ok, but still 2.04, i try one more time - same story. I download 2.05 one more time, formating pendrive, and this time is ok, 2.05. But, Terminator Salvation still not working. I wonder, is the firmware? Or only my player? I must wait till 2.06 or sale my copy of Terminator? Enyone has this problem? Please report. Once again - welcome everybody, sorry for this fatal english language

Your English is just fine. I know someone who picked up his English listening to Beatles albums.

The other day I plugged the Panasonic BLuray player in and swapped the HDMI from the Samsung and it has played every disc I throw at it and I haven't updated the firmware in 1 year. The only thing is that I like the Netlfix streaming feature. I hope Samsung can fix these problems. I have 3 Samsung and all have their issues. Even both of my 1590's from Costco have issues.

See zuulboy's post above. Maybe you just need to wait a little longer for it to load. It happened a couple of times where I loaded a couple of Paramount and Dreamworks Blu-rays and it took unusually long to load. I worried there for a minute thinking the disc may not play. Turns out I just needed to be patient

OK, I just tried again to play Terminator Salvation (only the second time I've popped it in the player). Oddly, this time there was no long delay. The warning screen loads, followed by a spinning disc to tell you that it's loading and then it just launches right into the movie, like a lot of Warner Bros. discs do. Maybe you have a defective disc?

I called Samsung customer service and they told me it is a youtube problem, but Youtube doesnt have a customer service so I am hoping someone here can help me.

Ok, converted the vobs to mkv using makemkv , its plays the sound only for 10 seconds and then stops with unsupported file format.

Running Australia 2.05

mkv , audio a52 , video mpgv 720x576 25 fps

Is this something that a lot of Blu-ray players run into, i.e. are they more "sensitive" to scratches/smudges/dust on the DVD? Or is this something that might benefit from a firmware downgrade?

This only has been an issue since upgrading the firmware
