My Samsung Blu-Ray player P1590 doesnt play regular DVD's. is this normal? Whenever I put a regular DVD it tries to load but it eventually posts a message on my TV screen saying "unable" to read disc.

you need to take it in so that it can be upgared

need code to program the remote for my bd p1590 to control my panasoniic hd tv and the codes that are in the manual dont work

After reading your post a couple of times, it just seems your are in a little of a pickle here. The only thing I can suggest, since your tv will work with fios and not the your BD player(I assuming your using the same port on the tv with the same hdmi cable), is all about firmware. Maybe your tv is not compatible with the the BD player. Try updating the firmware on the tv.

No File or Disc Error message

It may be a disc incompatibilty. Make sure you have the latest firmware for your unit. Report the problem to samsung to see if you there is a issue or a future fix. Blu-ray players are STILL trying to be finalized and only recently have they gotten smoother. Some players are better at some discs than others. Please take a sec to let me know if this helps.

i think in these modles there are 2 lasers one for normal dvd's and 1 for blueray my stepbrothe plays blu-ray on ps3 all the time and his packed up but normal dvd worked so try checking that or using a disk cleaner (a special disk) and try cleaning the blu-ray disk

good luck
