   My aquos blu ray player does not recognize any data in my memory stick….can you help?

   I formatted the stick to FAT.

   I downloaded the new firmware and then decompressed - stuck it in the blu ray. Every time it checks and then says it cannot find any informtion in the memory stick.

   Thanks

   Steven, the problem should be on your memory stick. Formatting the stick to FAT is the way it should, as recommended. I ‘m not saying your stick is broken since it work for the copying firmware stuff. But BD-HP20 has a major incompatibility with other hardwares.

   Things you can do to check:

   1. Make sure your stick is in a good shape.

   You said you’ve successfully downloaded the new firmware and then decompressed the file, right? Let us assume : you did that on your stick.
   Alrite, Plug it in, to your pc, and try to open the file in that stick. Is it opened? Try another read & write from your PC. If your file failed to open in your PC, then it would do exactly the same at your BD-HP20.
   Your solution in this point is: replace your stick.

   2. You’ve done the #1 checking.

   Your stick is doing fine, but still un-readable by the player. What’s next?

   Your solution in this point is: use another stick.

   I ‘ve done the testing my self, at my client’s BD-HP20 player. I use 2 sticks, the same brand which is Sandisk 2Gb. The first one not readable by the player, while the other works just fine.

   May I repeat, I use the exact same stick for the testing, Sandisk 2Gb.

   Hope it help.
   Thanks
