Question
Why does the picture stop when playing a Blue Ray DVD?
I'm playing a Blue Ray DVD and the picture stops... skips and some times continues. If I play the same DVD on my BD-D5700 I don't have any problems. I've played no more than 20 movies in the past year, but do listen to Pandora through the BD-6500 on a regular basis. Any idea what the problem might be???

You could press the stop button on the player itself for 10 sec until you see the word setup on the front panel to hard reset the player or you could just do a power cycle. I the problem still occurs then check the firmware version of your unit if it still updated or not, and if not you could download the latest version on the samsung website using a usb flashdrive, disc burning or use the 'by internet' process if your unit is connected on the net. If the problem still occurs, your unit needs to be repaired.
I have asked this question a number of times and have not received a response.
I need an activation code to enter in Netflix to allow wireless between the player and Netflix.

You need to get that once you try to open the netflix app on your player. It should pop up with one for you to enter.

I received this once. What had happened in my case is that the connection had been changed from wireless to wired, therefore it couldn't connect to the internet. Not sure if that would be the case every time this message appears though.
I am having the same issue I have it hard wired into the lan. I installed it last week and it was working yesterday I started getting the network interferance. I went back through the settings and hard wired is still checked and it is giving me an IP address. I have done a reset and gone back through the settings and am still getting the "network interferance". I can get to the applications but as soon as I make a choice I get the network interferancce.

I am not computer person I am a plumber with not much patience for computers and worked through it. every thing works fine.

I kept getting the network interference message. Turned out my phone connection for FIOS was ancient, full of rusted connections. When I picked up the landline phone there was lots of static. Had the phone company replace the junction box on the outside of my house, and the network interference messages went away.

My wireless router locks up every week. My router simply requires a reboot. Try this. 1. Turn off Samsung Blu-ray player. 2. Turn off wireless router for at least 10 seconds. Anything less and it won't fix your problem. 3. Turn on wireless router. Let it boot up for 3-4 minutes at least. Anything less and it won't fix your problem. 4. Turn on Samsun Blu-ray player. 5. On Samsung Blu-ray player, go to Smart Hub, then choose an internet service, like Netflix.
First try resetting your router and modem, or gateway. If that doesn't fix your problem try checking your network settings with your computer and make sure you allow sharing on your network. That should cover the obvious fixes to this issue.
Sometimes people live in homes prier too 1960 and all there walls are painted with lead baced paint. Try moving your net work transmiter closer to your player to get a beter single. this might help.

I got the network interference error a few times when I try to start up Netflix, and it goes away whenever I fully power down my IPOD touch by holding the button at the top of the device for a few seconds. It seems there is some sort of interference between the blu-ray wireless and the IPOD wireless. I don't know if I need to change some setting on my wireless router? Any thoughts?

It could be as simple as my problem. My wireless router is right outside my bedroom in my living room. Because of the thick walls (likely lead paint), if I close my door it can't access the internet, but if I open the door it works really well.

Patch is coming soon from Samsung. Maybe a couple weeks. Just be patient.
Try completely power off (unplug) all TV and network equipment, and restarting. Then try again the next morning when the servers aren't as busy. If that doesn't work, you will need to wait.

Try to hard reset and power cycle your unit and try to access netflix again but if it still fail, the reason might be it's because netflix is having a server issue and having trouble trying to accomodate all the customers trying to access netflix with their samsung blurays all at the same time so just try to access it from time to time and you can have access on it.
Hi, Is there any way to prevent my BD-D5700 from shutting off automatically? Also, when connected to a television via HDMI, whenever the television is shut off, the BD-D5700 shuts off along with it. Ist there any way to prevent this?
This player is for my almost-100-year-old grandmother, so we'd like to keep the player running the Netflix App at all times rather than making her go through additional menus and button-presses to get from startup to Netflix. Thanks.

Using the remote control of your bluray, just go to settings and disable the anynet on your device because when anynet is activated to all your samsung devices it will automatically turn off all of them if you turn off the tv.

You can actually check the user's manual of your unit and look for codes for the remote that can control other brands such as Insignia. If you cannot find the brand on the list that means your samsung remote has no capability to control that particular brand.

You can choose your language in the settings menu. Choose settings (the one that looks like a cog) from the main menu and Language is the 5th option down.

While your player is on standby mode just press and hold the stop button on the unit itself(not the remote) to put back your unit to its factory default settings. After that you'll see the initial setup and on screen language on the screen in english. So just choose the language that you prefer and do the other steps on the initial setup and you're good to go.(This works in 2010 and 2011 models of blurays and some Home Theater Systems)
Mine's a Sylvania also. When I called Samsung they said I would just have to use the TV's on /off or cable remotes on/off for the TV. If you find out the code (if there is one) please post it! Thanks.

We loaded a new blue-ray disk and it played. WE watched about 30 minutes of the movie. Then we played a standard DVD and watched the movie. We have loaded a music CD and it played. When we tried to play the first blue-ray disk, it wouldn't play. We tried to play two different blue-ray disks, they wouldn't play. When playing a blue-ray movie, we get the first chapter, then nothing. The numbers keep advancing, but just the same picture. We have tried everything without any luck.

I recently installed Pandora into the Disc Player which is connected to an hd flat screen tv (HDMI) and also my home stereo system.
The stereo system is is connected directly to the Disc Player. Everything works great in the setup. Once I process pandora to play, the music plays in both the TV and Stereo. However since I'm not going to sit in the room I want to shut the TV. When I manually press the TV power button the disc player also goes off. How can I keep the disc player running without the TV?
