The brand doesn't matter (though sony is the main one where it shouldn't work on, they're the main backers of the technology), the only thing that matters is if the player was licensed BEFORE or AFTER Feb 1st, 2012. If it was licensed BEFORE that date, any brand of player will play it just fine.
I don't know how true that is, although I never researched it. I have a Sony I purchased brand new in 2014 and a Samsung in 2013 and never had a problem. My daughter tried to play one of my disks on a Panasonic player and it didn't work because of canaiva.Shoot and I just got a brand new Denon Blu-ray player. No worries, I use Apple TV more than anything these days. ;-) Thanks mcdcad and especially Ch3vr0n who is always willing to share the knowledge.
well if that true and canaiva is getting more and more common, if something isn't done about it I guess making backups will be a thing of the past soon.That's because they may have been licensed models before the mandatory implementation rate. If they were licensed before Feb 1st, 2012 they don't require detection. For example if you pick up a brand new player TODAY (from the store) of a model that was licensed before that date (old stock), they still wouldn't need to detect it. Even though you bought it today, what matters was when the player model was licensed for playback.
