I've had a problem for some time now in loading any disc ( be it CD, DVD or Bluray). It starts to ingest it, but immediately spits it out again. They are new clean discs which work on other machines, so something odd is going on with my unit.

I've not seen this mentioned specifically on the Sony forum or elsewhere, so looked for something similar and started going through the fixes ( BD live off, unplug for 1 min +, check for update ).

Although there was no update available, this check would seem to have sorted it out ! - discs now load properly.

Is this Sony's way of encouraging us to check for updates ( but not telling us about it ! ).
