Have two Gaumont(out of 9) that are apparently, for lack of a better term, out of round and vibrate in players. They are flat.

Since obviously imported(one was 7 months ago), re-buy and hope? Or...some Gaumont do this?

The two films are:

Peril en la Demeure
La Boheme

They play fine. They just vibrate like crazy.

MY first Bluray player was a shocker for disc vibration and noise ( usually only while loading though) and it wasn't specific to any particular label either.

But when I got a new player the problem ended and my current Bluray Recorder doesn't have it either so I would say changing discs might not solve it. They might vibrate but as they do play they're not faulty. Perhaps they are at the fringe of acceptable spec but no problem in some players. I'd just put up with it until you get a new player.


If they make a noise actually during the film- well that's not something I've ever experienced.

I have 13 BD players.

Those two discs vibrate in every player they've been put it(PelD in 5, La Boheme in 3)

That leaves 8 and 10 respectively to try then.

Do they make a noise while the film is running or just during loading?
