heres what you want

The Philips DVP 5982 will play everything you put into it. even plays off memory sticks via USB.

don't fool yourself with the poor quality media your using. imation is the worst of the worst, use Verbatim or Taiyo Yuden burning at 6x to 8x max. use this thread for more info on good burning software and better media

yeah instore go with Verbatim

its less expensive to buy two copies of a blu-ray movie than trying to bavk it up. burners are around 400.00 to 600.00 dollars
