    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

    Okay, one more thing about the replacement player: I tried watching the Sonic Blu-ray all the way through, twice (the second time with commentary), and both times, it froze for about a minute at two key points in the film: towards the end of the hotel scene, and during the chase through San...

    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

    I just got my replacement player from Amazon (had to call them up to get a replacement rather than a refund, but they came through). So far I've tried the Aladdin discs (those were in the most questionable condition of all my DVDs—I got the set used), the two volumes of Pride and Prejudice, and...

    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

    Hmmm, I just tried a whole stack of DVDs, new and old, and none of them played. So far, the only DVDs I can get to play with the player are from the Northern Exposure DVD set (the complete series, from Shout Factory, published 2020 I believe). The DVDs I tried that didn't work were: Aladdin...

    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

The discs are old, but in good condition, and I can't figure out...

    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

    Thanks for the input! I ended up buying the Panasonic DP-UB420-K. I almost went with the Sony UBP-X700M, but I just saw too many results online for "Sony UBP-X700M freezing problem" and people wishing they'd gone with a Panasonic player 😕 Hopefully this will work out. (BTW I have a Samsung TV...

    Looking to buy a budget 4K Blu-ray player on Black Friday

    I've never actually owned a Blu-ray player (but I do have some Blu-ray discs) and, seeing as this may be the twilight of the age of physical media, it seems like a good time for me to buy one. I have only about $200 to spend on this, though, so I'm thinking Black Friday is a good time for me to...

    General Discussion Best service for redeeming a Paramount movie (Sonic)

    I just realized I have an unused digital redemption code for Sonic the Hedgehog (2020), and it expires next month. The thing is, Paramount's website doesn't list the services on which you can redeem the code until after you've entered the code, and I don't want to do that until I know on which...
