I have this model and have freezing issues with 4k discs. Regular blu-rays play fine, 4k disc don't. Mine will play about 30min of the movie then will freeze shortly. Continue to play flawlessly for the next 25 min, then will freeze again. It froze 4-5 times watching top gun maverick.
You can't play 4K UHD Blu-Rays on a PS4
The problem is that 4K content is huge and the 4K content that you are streaming is compressed. Like REALLY compressed. You aren't getting the great sound of 4K media, and the visuals won't match what you will see with a 4K UHD disc. If you have a $1,000+ 4K TV and you are using 4K streaming content... you don't really care about the quality that you are receiving at your TV.

I assume I have no reason for this since I have a PS5 with drive.

I do still have an ancient Sony blu-ray player with ancient firmware that I keep around to play old stuff.

Bought one a couple years ago. Froze on every triple layer disc I fed it. Returned it the next day. Sony should have pulled this and the 800 off the shelves a long time ago, but they could care less.

I bought the 800 series Sony 4K player last year and had nothing but issues the movies I tried to watch able to play completely without freezing or skipping.

I have to large of a collection to just be ok with some movies I'm able to watch vs not being able to at all. It is amazing player when it works.

I bit the bullet and just bought the Panasonic UBP820 and so far the last couple of days it has played my 4K movies like Spider-Man No Way Home, Bravehart and The Dark Knight with out any issues. The PQ is a step up too so I think if can get that or the 420 which is way cheaper but don't have DV, will be the better purchase. I have mine connected to a 77 Inch C1

You can turn off DV on the 820.
So grab several DV disc and compare DV vs the Optimizers processing of HDR.
You'll find out if the extra money is worth the difference.

I would say so, bought this player last year to compare with the PS5 player since I wanted to watch DV movies. I regretted that decision when the player started to freeze with certain movies but on the PS5 they worked fine.

I would suggest selling it since it holds it resale value very well, especially if you can include the original receipt.

Quote from Drew992 :
If you wipe your discs down with a little water and a micro cloth that should take care of it. I used to have freezes ALL the time and havent had one since.
Way Way back, with VCRs, you used 92% isopropyl alcohol & cotton swab to clean the capstan & heads. Later when CDs became the new thing, same isopropyl alcohol & cotton swab cleaned up the optical "eye" when dust and/or smoke got deposited.
Not much different today, these players use modulated laser light. Random dust particles, tobacco, or other smoke in the air, cooking error and smoke throughout the house, can, and will, affect your electronics. Ditto for dust on the motherboards, some of it is metallic! Tiny tiny short circuits.
Try cleaning up the optical sensor, and, blowing dust off the motherboard. Usually just 4-6 screws keep the cover on, now get out a couple of Q-tips and $2 in alcohol. Hard to screw things up, may fix things, may not, but if it's driving you nuts, worth the 20 minutes it might take to try this.

This is not the player to get. Too many issues. Don't let the price fool you. The Panny DP-UB820-K is the lowest price point to get for Dolby Vision.

Dumb question maybe… I have an OLED (sony). Like many people I tend to watch movies via streaming services (prime, Disney +, etc). I also have a Sonos arc and sub for audio. Am I not maximizing my technology capabilities for audio and or picture by using streaming? Is it always best to have a blue ray player and watch the discs to get the best of the best? Let me know as this stuff sometimes is confusing to me. I always think by streaming I am getting top notch. If someone has a solid tv and theater system do they tend to always watch movies using blue ray player?

you are correct at that you are not getting the best from streaming. the bit rates and sound quality is really compress. people usually dont care or dont pay much attention to it. but watch the same movie on streaming and physical disk to see for yourself!
