It happens for some media's. Many DVD's/CD's get detected while many doesn't without any reason. U can consider buying a new one if the no of DVD's doesn't get detected is more.

Well.......wait for other member's suggestion.

Dragon Ball Z 8 Disc

Yeah, the film is cropped--the point that matters is that I don't care. If you do care, then don't buy it. On the case, it says the video is cropped. As far as I'm concerned, I like having a clean, new looking set of episodes. I understand that it is hard to retransfer all the eps into DVD and touch up the problems caused by the old, soft, and dirty film used in producing this show. To me it is alright to not have a little bit of Goku's torso in the shot. The story is what I'm watching for. I hope the people that are whining so much don't cause Funimation to cancel this series of boxsets like they did the last one.

scrubs dvd 1-8

I became a fan of Scrubs halfway through the first season. The show is amazing. Everything is beautifully acted, written, and directed. It's not only a show about people learning to be doctors but also about coming of age. There are episodes where I am laughing so hard I'm crying and even a couple where I'm crying because I'm just plain touched.

this may be due to media compatibility, try upgrading the firmware.
