Certain DVD - Curse of the Golden Flower - refuse to play on unquestionable DVD players and my sisters laptop?

Awhile ago I bought the DVD The Curse of the Golden Flower from Wal-Mart. This was a regular DVD, not a Blu Ray one or anything. It played fine on my upstairs DVD player the first time, but refuse to play again later. The player said "loading" for an unusually long time later went blank. The movie wouldn't play. My sister be also unable to play it on her laptop. I tried it on our downstairs DVD player, and it worked fine, which really surprised me (I'm not sure if the downstairs player is elder or newer - sorry).

So I returned the DVD to Wal-Mart, thinking it was defective, and get a new one. Well, five minutes ago I put it within the upstairs DVD player. Same thing. Noooooo movie. It said loading for a long time and zilch happened. Then I put it contained by my sisters laptop. No movie again. So I tried it downstairs. Worked fine.

WHAT is going on? I'm totally baffled. Other movies work fine in the upstairs player and my sister's laptop. Is The Curse of the Golden Flower DVD cursed?!


Answers:    My guess is that the laptop may necessitate a different player or codec to view the the movie. I hold had to use different players resembling InterAcual Player or Power DVD and even DivX player As for your TVs DVD player Yours might be the old one or simply dirty. You did not say if any plays other movies and If region code was the problem The laptop should enjoy had a widow pop up about that.Good Luck!
I guess we are stumped as well. the individual pther thing that I can chew over of is that the way the DVD is record wil not play on DVD players with a different size laser focal point. the laptop I catch I have DVDs and record DVDs that will not play except in a player similar to the one it was record on or certain make of DVD players ( for PCs) sorry I can't be of more help. I tried:(
The individual thing I can possibly regard as of is, is it a region-free DVD? But seeing as how you bought it from Walmart, I doubt this is the case...I own no idea. The problem is plainly with the DVD though, since none of the DVD players will play it, and I'm assuming other movies play fine.
