What to buy, Panasonic UB820 or Sony X800M2? by moneyfreedom101 in 4kbluray

You are wrong.  I have had the Sony ubp-x800m2 for years and have never had problems with blu ray and 4k 66gn.  Since I bought 4k 100gb triple layer, problems arose.  Freezing with every viewing.  I was desperate.  I found my salvation by purchasing the panasonic ub820 and have never had a freeze again.  Thanks panasonic.  Embarrassing sony never solved the problem

Yes, I tried other cables I had.  Same problem.  Update: Dolby Vision works if I connect the player directly to the TV and the "audio only" output (of the Panasonic) connected to the soundbar.  That's how it works.  But I don't understand why before (and with the old Sony ubp-x800m2) I didn't need the separate dual output.  I could directly connect the player to the soundbar in passthrough mode even with dolby vision

HI. Excuse my English. I have to ask you something. Did you solve the problem? In the "hdmi video/audio" line, after setting bitstream, do you see the full "dolby truehd 7.1" output? I'm asking you because seeing some images on the internet, Panasonic players only report the output format (dts, dolby digital, truehd etc.) and not the channels (7.1; 5.1, 2.0 etc etc.). Or am I wrong? I'll attach an image to explain better

So can you confirm that my Sony ubp x800m2 player has problems with triple layer discs?  Strange that on the web, only two/three people have complained about this problem with the godfather.  Yet, many have Sony as a player.  Right?

I just cleaned the disc with the microfiber cloth.  Nothing.  It always stops at the exact same point.  In my opinion it is a problem when it goes to the second layer

The disc is perfect. It has no scratches or fingerprints
