We are going to need a bit more information.

What player are you trying to use where it is messed up? Does the player have an internet connection? Is it messing up on all discs, or just some newer ones?

Reason I ask is that the BluRay standard is slowly evolving, and players often need updates downloaded in order to play some newer content. Of you don't have an internet connection on the player, try hooking one up and letting the update download and see if that fixes the problem.

If that isn't the problem, we are going to need more info: Make and model of player, cables you are using to connect, make and model of TV, is there a receiver in the signal path, is is all discs having issues, etc.

this on my pc, the discs play find in my PS3, i try to update the powerDVD but it came with the pc, so it won't let me update it without me buying a newer version, and when the discs mess up it's only mess up for 10-15, then it go back to normal

Sounds like copy protection. They put in new copy protection on a regular basis, so you have to update the player.

You have the option of slysoft's anydvd HD ( http://www.slysoft.com/en/anydvdhd.html ) which removes the copy protection from BDs so PowerDVD can play. They have a 21 day free trial period so you can test it out. But, you have to pay for the updates to anydvd too.

i never thought of anydvd, but that will work, but i have one more question does that mean your have buy a newer version of PowerDVD every year because of copy protection?

It looks like PowerDVD should update for new AACS keys without having to buy a new copy every year.
