This Blu-Ray player makes a lot of noise when it's playing hi-def content. Note the change in the sound at 0:28

  • I've just checked mine and it does make that noise, but only when loading for a few seconds between menus and stuff and start up. Are you saying yours does it all the way through the movie?

  • It depends on the movie. It does it all the way through the movie on Patton and 2001, for examples, but not on some lesser Blu-Rays. Doesn't ever do it on DVDs.

    One way to make it quieter is to pick one of the lower quality soundtracks. For example, it's quiet on Patton if you pick the Dolby Digital soundtrack, but it's loud again if you use the high quality uncompressed linear PCM soundtrack.

  • I hate to break it you buddy, but I think your unit is defective.

    Mine is a quiet as a whisper. No problems at all.

  • As you've already been told, your unit is probably defective. Even with your unit the transport noise is not that noisy.

  • It sounds normal to me. All machines make normal moving noises though.

  • One thing is for sure, this is easily imo the most beautiful Bluray player around, i just love the glossy blue face plate. ;D

  • Spindle motor sounds like its rubbish bluray format HD player! Send it to the rubbish bin and buy a new player.

  • mine just makes a noise that sounds like a mouse scratching something, it used to really irritate me but now im used to it

  • mine neither its quiter than a mouse

  • That is strange, mine does not make that noise.

  • I've just tried serveal Blu Rays in my player: Casino royal,ultraviolet,the dark knight,planet earth,resident evil degineration, hitchhiker's guide and total recall. Only total recall and hitchhiker's guide made a noise similarto your video, but then only on the first chapter and when loading menus. As I moved through the chapters it got quieter and quieter.

  • There's a button on your remote control that'll fix it. It's called volume ;-)
