I had a similar issue with "Jurassic World: Dominion" so I'm thinking its probably my player so not really too annoyed. However when I popped in the DVD that came with the CD version, the thing played, but both the 5.1 surround sound option as well as the stereo option BOTH PLAY AS STEREO according to my receiver. This is some bullshit since I was really looking forward to the 5.1 mix.........does anyone else have this problem or is it another issue with my hardware?
I have the Blu/ray disc and a 4k Panasonic player, and it's playing fine for me. The DVD also played fine for me.
Thanks for the info, good to know. I still consider my Sony player to be somewhat new, but in reality its going on probably around 10 years now so perhaps its not liking the disc encoding or something on some of the new releases.
EDIT: Turns out the 5.1 vs stereo issue was also a setting problem with my SAMSUNG player since it worked just fine on another unit.......I got two players confused that I've been working with so it looks like Sony wasn't to blame. However upon looking at reviews I'm definitely looking to upgrade to a Sony player from this Samsung unit now. I guess Samsung actually got out of the blu-ray player business since apparently they're not great at it. lol
