    DVDs Won't Go Past Main Menu


    Many DVDs I was previously able to play on my laptop will now not play beyond the main menu. Clicking any menu item or pressing "Skip" has the DVD player briefly for a fraction of a second try to play the selected movie/menu I can tell because the chapter markers briefly pop up on the timeline, but it always ends up just replaying the main menu or stopping video playback altogether. I've included the entire log at the end of this message. For some reason, it has this issue on some DVDs and not others i.e. "Love and Mercy" and "The Ren & Stimpy Show Uncut," but not the Criterion Collection release of "Rebecca".



    Resetting the Preferences had no effect.Disabling "Start directly in menu" in the preferences either results in no playback or on rare occasions the following error message repeated every few seconds: "DVDRead could not read 1/4 blocks at 0x05"

    Reinstalling VLC Media Player including to the latest nightly build had no effect, nor did trying other DVD players.



    I wonder if it has something to do with me going to the UK and changing my Region settings for a semester I was able to play the DVDs in the US before the move; but the Windows Settings say everything's back to the US Region settings now, so I'm not sure if this is the issue unless I'm missing some hidden advanced setting.

    Or it may have something to do with copy protection? The working "Rebecca" DVD has a CP "copy protected" logo on the back whereas the other DVDs do not.


    I'm sure this is a software issue rather than a problem with my disc drive, as it has completely no issues with ripping, burning, and playing back CDs.

    Help would be extremely appreciated!!

    Volume Mute Light won´t change color


    Which steps did you perform? Was this from a clean boot?
    Open administrative command prompt and type or copy and paste this command: shutdown /r /o /f /t 00
    It will boot to the recovery options or windows advanced troubleshooting menu.
    Click troubleshooting and click reset this computer. You will be saving files. Applications and programs will be removed. Windows will be reinstalled.
    Enter your windows logon password.
    You will see getting things ready with rotating dots.
    Click resetting this PC.
    It will then display the HP logo with resetting this PC with rotating dots and a percentage.

    DVDs Won't Go Past Main Menu

    My pc won´t boot Windows 10 from USB/DVD

    So I wanted to change from my Windows 10 x32 bits to 64x. I downloaded the Mediacreationtool and used it in both a USB and a DVD. Tried used the usb, the disk and both at the same time but they won´t boot.

    I have a P7H55-M motherboard, the BIOS is updated and configured to boot first DVD, second usb and third SATA.

    So if someone could help me it´d be great.
