DVD Can’t Play on PS4 - Solved Now!

With a 4k (3840x2160p) display and lossless 7.1 channel and an eight-core Jaguar CPU, paired with a Radeon 7000-series GPU, PS4 is amazing for playing games and watching movies. But its BD/DVD disc drive sometimes could really drive you crazy and freak you out. Next is a question asked from the reddit.

“I haven't always had this issue, and I'm not sure when it started so I can't say what firmware update screwed me. If I start up my PS4 and eject whatever disc is in there, and put in a DVD nothing happens. I don't get the DVD to select on the main screen. It just sits there. Then when I go to power options and hit restart, it takes a good 5 minutes to restart because whatever my PS4 was doing with the DVD it locked it up and it usually says my PS4 shut down incorrectly. Only after its fully restarted will I see the option to play the DVD. I don't have any issues with games though. Does anyone have any clues to fix this?” if you have the same problem or other problem about playing DVD on PS4, then this article can definitely solve your problem.

Different solutions to solve all kinds of problems you may have:

1.Unexpected game disc/DVD ejection and followed with no acceptation of the discs.

Official Solution: First, hold down the power button until the system beeps twice. Then wait about 30 seconds until all system lights are off. Unplug the power cord for three minutes. If the issue isn't exterminated, visit Sony online Service Request page.
Users' Solution: Take the rubber stopper under the eject button off.

2.When playing game DVD, it shows "NO Disc Inserted" or "Unrecognized Disc"

Official Solution: Delete the game app data and reinstall it. If failed, try PS4 safe mode options.
Solution 1: Clean your disc with a microfiber cloth. The disc reader is really sensitive to scratches and fingerprints.
Solution 2: If your disc is BF4, try another one. Some users report they just have problems only on BF4.
Solution 3: Dissemble your disc drive. Visit YouTube to know the detailed steps.
Classic Solution: Take the disc out and reboot your PS4.

3. After putting the disc into DVD drive, it shows a black screen

Solution: When you see the black screen, change the input on your TV off the current HDMI then change it back.( That works for some people for some reason.)
