How to make Sony DVP9000ES play Hybrid sacd layer


My dvp9000es won't play the sacd layer on any hybrids it will play the disc in regular mode....but the sacd light out of the six lights won't come on....it comes on if i play a sacd only disc.
What is going on?

*It plays sacd "native" discs but not the sacd hybrid layer discs*

Mine is doing the same thing. Also, mine stopped playing most DVD's all the way thru, it "locks up" after a time.

I doubt, at the used price DVP9000ES's are going for, that it's worth getting it fixed.....I'm enjoying mine for playing sacd "native" discs for as long as it lasts.....
Does the OP have the DVPS9000ES? Or the DVPNS9000ES? The first has a Sony Flat Rate Program repair cost of $212.00, the 2nd is $126. (Frankly I don't know what the DVPNS9000ES is?).
