If a Blu-ray Disc movie is not loading properly or is freezing on a title screen, this may be caused by the PS3 attempting to download BD-Live content from congested movie studio servers. If you experience this issue, you may choose to temporarily bypass the BD-Live content until the congestion at the movie studio servers has cleared. Go to (Settings) > (Video Settings) > [BD Internet Connection], select "Confirm". Then reload the Blu-ray movie and the PS3 will prompt you if you wish to allow the disc to access BD-Live content. Choose to not access BD-Live content to see if the movie will now load. If the disc is scratched, the PS3 may not play or the game may skip while being played. If the disc is smudged, attempt to clean the disc. To clean the disc, use lint-free cleaning cloths made specifically for cleaning CD/DVD discs, sold at computer software stores. When cleaning the disc, we recommend starting from the innermost circle, and wiping out to the edge in a straight line. We do not recommend wiping in a circular motion, as it may create more scratches on the disc. Note: Other materials, such as a paper towel or a T-shirt, may also scratch the disc. If there are any scratches, smudges, or fingerprints on the disc, it may not function properly. Also, do not use or insert any CD/DVD drive cleaners into the PS3 as doing so may cause damage to the system.
