It looks like more problems for Blu-Ray, and Sony this week, as several people are complaining about horror film 'The Descent' not working in their machines. The disk is one of Sony's new 50GB mega discs, and features a boatload of extras, including one of the first ever picture-in-picture directors commentaries, and a bunch of BD-Java encoded content. It seems both the Sony BDP-S1 and Pioneer Elite Blu-ray players are choking on the disk. Problems range from not being able to use the interactive special features, to just getting a black screen. Each of the player's respective manufacturers says an update will fix the problem, and is on the way soon. Hopefully they'll have everything ironed out before LG's combo player hits the shelves.
