Hi Unhappy,
We're truly sorry to hear that your Sony UBP-X800M2 is no longer responding to the remote. We understand how frustrating this can be, especially after using it for only about 30 days.
Here are some useful troubleshooting steps that can help resolve this problem:
1- Power reset the player. You will need to disconnect the power cord from the outlet and leave it like this for 2 minutes. Then plug the power cord back into the outlet and turn it on.
2- Please try changing the batteries in the remote and resetting it. To reset, remove the old batteries, press each button on the remote twice, then insert the new batteries and test it.
3- Check if the player responds to the physical buttons on the front panel of the unit. This will help you diagnose whether is an issue with the remote or the player itself.
If after performing these steps the Blu-Ray is still not responding, we highly recommend reaching out to our technical support team through the link below:

It could have more apps on it and shouldn't have to manually select dolby vision.

Fails to Play 4K Movies W/O Freezing

I've had constant freezing issues while playing 4K titles that don't fail on other players. Sony is ignoring the issue when I speak to them. I don't think sending the player in for service will fix this issue. Sony appears to not be doing anything about it; highly disappointed.

Very disappointed. I have had this unit about 30 days but it failed while playing only the third disc. It has gone completely unresponsive. I have had good experiences with Sony in the past, but my bad experience with this UBO-X800M2 will overshadow those memories. I’ll be returning this unit at my earliest convenience.

Problems with Sony DVD 4k player!

Will not play 4K without sound skipping/distortion. Unit turns off ever 10 to 15 minutes on any format DVD for no reason. Impossible to watch movies. We have all new 4K HDMI cables.
Talked to Geek Squad at the store and they were no help. I bought the Geek Squad coverage when we realized that there were problems that we realized when the the return period was almost up. I took as a while to install the new TV and DVD player.
I don't really no what to do now!

Had it just over 2 months and started locking up every ten min. I should have listened. Now I can take it back to Best Buy, how am I supposed to bring it back with the COVID shutdown? I no longer have the box.

Love it! So easy to connect when compared with the old, multi wire confusio that we once had to deal with. Works great, super image quality!

When playing 4K HDR on few movies, no issues and picture is superb. When switching manually to Dolby Vision, movie paused for a second and continued to play on a couple movies. I am ok with it, but then played on another movie, the player permanently freezes and whole experience messed up. Had to power cycle, played the same scene, and player played ok. Seems like its random. Hopefully there is a firmware update to allow automatically detect Dolby Vision and fixes the pause/freeze issue.

Bought this new, straight out of the box it did not work. Got the second one a couple of days ago, it worked. I'll be checking it real good this weekend. I do not like to buy things that do not work right out of the box. I was skeptical when I bought this thing!

doesn't pick up where I left off after a couple of weeks. Have to scan "scenes" to find something that looks like what I remembered. Very inconvenient, unless I'm missing something.

If you need this strictly for 4k Blu-ray playback this is an acceptable purchase. If you are trying to utilize your home theater to the fullest get an xbox one x which has 4k Blu-ray support as well as atmos support for all your streaming applications.
