BD-R in Samsung BD-P1400

I used Vegas to create a BD-R from the timeline using the AVC codec and it plays great in my Computer and on my PS3. I have a client with a BD-P1400 and i have updated his firmware for him and the disc still will not play. I checked on these forums to find that others have found that unit compatible. Does anyone have any clues as to what else I might try?

Have you used the latest Samsung firmware update (1.7)? http://www.samsung.com/us/support/download/supportDown.do?group=mp3audiovideo&type=blu_ray&subtype=blu_raydiscplayers&model_nm=BD-P1400&language=&dType=D&mType=FM&vType=R&prd_ia_cd=Samsung Download Center[/link].

I have the Samsung 1400 too - and have seen, that it is quite compatible with both BDMV-DVD, BDMV-DVD-DL, BDMV-DVD-RW and BD-RE generated by Vegas.

However, I have not tried BD-Rs up to now in a broad way.

What brand of BD-R did you use?

My BD-P1400 plays anything I put in it (except HD-DVD of course)... even before updating the firmware.

I'm using Sony BD-Rs and a Lite-on LH-2B1S recorder.

I can't imagine what's wrong, but I burned two discs of the same program. One with Vegas, the other with the Cyberlink Software that comes with it, and went to Best Buy to test. Of three units there (No BD-P1400s) none of them played either disc. I'm starting to think my burner is the problem.

So this is interesting. I finally found a Circuit City with 2 BD-P1400 Units on display. One unit would play my discs another seemingly identical unit could not. Both had the latest firmware. I have to assume now as they wouldn't let me approach them with a screwdriver obviously that perhaps different manufacturing plants r\or different batches may be sourcing the drives themselves from different places. Some drives will read others will not, all in the same exact unit.
