[@cpbaseballman8452]

Ok give it a try i got a machine a dvd vcr combo out of the trash a couple weeks ago it would read the lens cleaning disc and nothing else I turns out the screws need to be turned to increase the laser power if it dosent work buy a new disc drive for 45 dollars on amazon

[@viperassassin2426]

my xbox just says “make sure you’re using Xbox One game, a music CD, or a movie on Blu-Ray or DVD”. what should i do

[@sunbakedspace9421]

Is groove music the only way to run discs like this?

[@cpbaseballman8452]

Yes it is the only way to play cds on xbox I rarely use cds on xbox playstation does not play audio cds or 4k bluerays for playstation you need to try and find one that dosent have audio tracks

@@cpbaseballman8452 can I use any laser lense cleaner disk or the same one you used?

[@cpbaseballman8452]

You can use the one you have for ps4 you have to find one that playes off the DVD app

@@cpbaseballman8452 I just pulled this video up for first use of my cleaning on my xbox one. Used to use this CD on my 360 too. Well anyways, Ive found that BluRay player works with this disk and its a lot simpler to use

[@85CCM75]

It’s really weird because they change the interface and so now I don’t know how to actually play the audio it’s reading the disk because it shows the little symbol on the top right corner but it’s not playing when I go into the app like nothings happening if she says open Files and stuff like that

[@cpbaseballman8452]

They use a different lens cleaner

[@TrustedHayden]

@@glory4nem sadly not I have just restored to digital games

[@cpbaseballman8452]

Then it's burned our just replace the disc drive or I know how to do that if you need me to or if you don't have alot of games on disc just use digital

[@danielpasterski712]

What if my Xbox won’t read discs at all. How is it going to read this one to work?

[@cpbaseballman8452]

It uses separate lasers to read discs uses a blue to read xbox games and bluerays a red to read dvds and xbox 360 games and a ir to read cds for the lens cleaning disc

[@danielpasterski712]

Cp Baseballman ok thanks bro

[@danielpasterski712]

I put the cleaning disc in 5 times and my game discs don’t work. Does that mean my laser is burnt out. What else should I do

[@cpbaseballman8452]

Yea I bought a better lens cleaning disc clean dr my xbox works much better now its all I really use it for is dvds and bluerays now and xbox games sometimes

I am annoyed tried everything but this, I need to get this disk cleaner and try it, been two days trying to get games to work in the disk tray wont work

[@cpbaseballman8452]

Yea try something like a cd or dvd if that dosent work then the laser is burned out you could send it to me and I could try and fix it

[@josemontes530]

My Xbox isn’t reading that it’s there and I’m on groove

[@josemontes530]

Nevermind but is it possible it might need to go more than one time

[@cpbaseballman8452]

Yes I do do it multiple times I go it twice on my xbox one five times on my xbox 360 does the disc insert easily without having to push to insert it

[@josemontes530]

Cp Baseballman yeah it does. At first the Xbox will not recognize the disk and start groove up only after I reset it. But it is still reading Xbox 360 discs and not Xbox one. I will still try it again though as I only did it 3 or 4 times it’s the 2013 console

[@cpbaseballman8452]

The reason it is reading xbox 360 discs and not one it that the Xbox one uses a blue laser to read the disc and the Xbox 360 reads off of a red laser try a music cd and DVD and blueray disc to see if those read if not the laser for xbox one blue is burned out

[@josemontes530]

Cp Baseballman so basically give any blu ray disc a try? If not then it must be broken beyond repair?
