Hey guys,need advice

I have two PS3 Slim 120gb that is bought from Sony Malaysia and my personal gameshop which is different but they both have the same tendency to not play some Blue ray discs.

The original ones run just fine but the ahem ones,well I cant seem to finish the movies on it,it always get to hang around for a while till up to 12-15 minutes before seizing up (black screen,no pictures)

but the ps3 is working and the top menu can be accessed,when i use the SELECT to see if theres any stream of data it shows the ps3 is skipping the parts up to the next playable one.

I tried playing the discs on a Sony blueray player and it ran fine! this is my dilemma here,can anyone enlighten me?

p/s 1 of my ps3 has its firmware up to the latest,3.30 and another is on 3.15

So im using Component cables instead and scaled it to 720p/1080i. can component cables be the culprit?

u don't love ur ps3, do ya? no 1 will use the ps3 as a blu ray player running on jack sparrow kind of disc....u must be a rich man....

i though theres already jack sparrow blue ray movie on the blck market?

lolol dont say like that friend,lets just say i am a determined gamer




yeah there is,fact is i got 12 of them sparrows,and only the copied one (BD-R) are the ones that is making problems.the sparrows that is copied but using normal bd discs (not dark one) are plying fine

haha a bit confusing,hope u guys know what im talking about

let me get this straight, you are complaining because your PS3 wont play pirated disc?

its like a robber complaining to Karam Singh Walia why the police is hot on his tail after a robbery

cepat lah lens dia nazak

actually no. it depends on the quality of the media. if the media is scratched to hell, but the thing is original, still it causes stress to the lens. the general idea is, original titles usually have good quality media behind them.

I actually came here looking out for a solution bro.So i dont appreciate sarcasm if you intend any.
I am fully aware that it might jeopardise the life of the player.What I do of it however,is my own business

What i am trying to find out here,is why does my brand new ps3 isnt able to play the pirated media,but a normal BD player can.So if you want to help me,lets try and discuss why is it so.

The disc is brand new and only some of the pirated ones arent working,thus confusing me even more.

why so serious? LOL.

And you SERIOUSLY hope a pirated media perform like the original

Want a solution? Buy original Blu-ray la, problem solve. Better than risking a PS3 over a few pirated BDs.

hahah no lah i wasnt really serious.just a bit pissed it cant play Braveheart.

guarayakha - any one can tell me that. tell me, your ps2,assuming you had one,dont you use pirated cd's considering we're in bolehland?

and as snipersnake mentioned earlier,which is fact that BD discs pirated or not wont harm the lens unless it is of low quality (scratched)

my point here is,how come my Sony Blueray player can play the discs well without any problem and my PS3 cant?

to all,i humbly asked for your good understanding of the matter and stop telling me what I allready know,which is Original > Pirated.

help me fix this okay,sorry im a bit worked up i got to make this run for my dad he brought one to his office
