Blu-ray player power cycling whenever plugged in

...it was working fine last night.

I hope so. People are losing their minds at my house. They need Netflix!

I'm having the exact same issue eveyone else is having. It started Yesterday at about 5pm CST. I have a BD-JM57. I don't know how they're going to roll back an update if the damned player can't stay on for more than 5 seconds.

Same issue here with my HT-J5500W.

Commenting just to be updated with the issue is fixed.

I'm going to add myself to this list as well. My BD-J5700 started the "infinite reboot bug" just after midnight last night. I turned it off after finishing  watching a movie 11 pm and at 12:30 am I turned it back on to watch something else and it started the cycle. I had to unplug it. Hopefully Samsung finds a fix soon.

I have 3 BD-J5100s, one started the reboot cycle last night and another this morning.  The third is unplugged and hopefully not already effected.

So do we think this is bad firmware pushed by Samsung or a bad actor?

I submitted this forum to Yahoo news so they can (hopefully) put it on the main Yahoo website.

How did you submit it? Perhaps we can do the same?

I'm in the UK and my Samsung bdj5500 did the same thing on Wednesday evening (17th June).

Infinite power cycle, shows the Samsung logo then a flash of the menu and then blackness and it does it all over again ad infinitum.

It's 2 years old and has just gone out of warranty!

I am in UK exactly the same. How on earth can they mess up this big.

Same problem here with BD-JM57C started last night 6/18/20. Hoping for a resolution to this problem
