Why is my blu-ray player not playing blu rays?
The problem could be the FIRMWARE version of the components. Newer Blu-ray discs may have added features that won't work on your home system because the firmware needs to be updated. Some indications that a firmware upgrade may be needed are significant delays in playing titles or some not playing at all.

Are blu rays hd or sd?
A DVD is a standard definition device. You won't get high-definition movie viewing on your DVD, just 480 SD. On the other hand, Blu-ray is made for HD, and you'll get the best picture possible, with 1080 HD capability for your Blu-ray movies.

Are blu-rays still region locked?
Yes, Blu-ray titles have region coding similar to DVDs. However, instead of eight regions, Blu-ray uses only three: Region A: North, Central, South America, Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia. Region B: Europe (EU), Africa, Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand.
