BU40N Perfect With BR but Picky with DVDs

Post by Roosteyr »

Long story short my BU40N opens and reads nearly all Blu-rays and UHD disks but reads less than a quater of the DVDs I've tried. Disks are clean and play but it seems like the drive has trouble opening DVDs. If it gets them open it can normally read them. Ive tried WinX DVD and it can read most DVDs but the movie files are incomplete and end randomly. Ive read post like viewtopic.php?t=22644

and suspect the issue is just the BU40N not handling the DVDs well. I've attached my error log but expect I just need to invest in a second drive that handle DVDs better . Is there anything worth while to look at in the error log or can anyone recommend a good DVD drive for DVDs? Seems like most folks on here run at least a few drives.

Cheers and thank you to all who've help to build this great community.
