P3600 can't play disk or update firmware - but do I want to?

by busydoc Aug 8, 2009 11:15PM PDT

The very first Bluray I tried to play, Gran Torino (Netflix) produced the "Can't play this disk" message. The disk was new and clean.

I googled the issue and found that the BD-3600 can't play certain disks and needs a firmware update. I downloaded the firmware (.RUF) on to a flash drive and it will not read it. Did the same thing after burning onto a CD. Can't log onto my wireless network using the password!

BUT, cnet forum has a thread about the 1.03 firmware having a bug in it (see prior forums) and you can't use the player after updating. So, probably shouldn't update???

Maybe just buy a different brand...
