Hi,I got this DVD (YES - Live at the House of the Blues)brand new and played it a couple of times without any problem. Now, when I try to play it, all I got is this error message: "DVD can not be played". It's not a problem with the DVD player (I tried to play the DVD in four other DVD players and had the same problem) and it's not a question of wrong region code.
Any ideas of what is going on?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Take a close look at the DVD to see if there are any smudges or scratches. Depending on the DVD, these can make them unreadable.Michael
Yep. And some just don't work with some players. If it's an older player, start looking for a new one. I have a Sony 7000 and have about 2% that don't play (about 4 discs). Further my Matrix disc skips and locks on layer 2 (the deja vue/wet wall scene) whereas in my buddy's Sony 7700 it plays fine.-- Greg
about 1 out of 5 (by actual count) DVD rentals from Netflix wouldn't play or froze or pixelated so awefully that I finally canceled my subscription with them. I have a Dennon DV 5000...and cleaned the discs that wouldn't play with Auric Illuminator (helped twice--but not completely).I hope you're wrong about the machinery...that Dennon's top player isn't the problem...)never had a problem with store-bought DVDs(
so I bought JVC's last best effort consumer VCR, and went back to rentals from the grocery store...
...I've never had a VHS failure...never rented a VHS tape that failed to play. Is there anything worse than setting up for a weekend film fest and having THREE Netflix DVDs that would not play? AT ALL. Matrix was one of them...and a break-up and freeze during your first viewing of that flic really crushes the buzz.
Anyway...now I download from the Dish Network. Literally...Far Out.
