My father is trying to play a dvd in his imac. he just played a copy of a movie given to him with no problem. Now he is trying to play a movie from netflix and is getting an error message of "supported disk not available". what does this mean? Is this a codec or something hes missing? He has a dvd burner player model imac, the 17" flat screen model he says. Sorry I couldnt get a model # out of him ;)

Any help would be appreciated :)
 
If DVD Player won't work, you may want to try VLC.

It's possible that it's a very low-tech problem like dirt or scratches on the disc. This is often a problem with rented movies. Some careful wiping with a soft cloth (I like to use old well-worn t-shirts) could do the trick.
