Part 1: Know about the Netflix's DVD Plans

The Netflix DVD plans, the Netflix DVD service, otherwise officially known as the Netflix DVD program is a DVD rental program offered by Netflix, as a recourse for people who prefer to watch Netflix content on DVDs and Blu-rays. While it is known as the Netflix DVD program, it does not mean that they will only rent DVD discs to you, but they will also rent you Blu-day discs for higher quality content. Netflix's DVD program includes some TV shows and movies that are not available through their streaming service.

Part 2: Solutions to fix the Cinavia error on Netflix DVD/Blu-rays

When you get a DVD or Blu-ray Disc from Netflix or any other official or legal means, almost all of them are going to come with Cinavia protection, which is an advanced anti-piracy technology that embeds audios, watermarks etc., into the sounds and pictures. That will only give you an inaudible viewing experience, as well as a watermark which will block the pictures from being viewable. Cinavia-generated anti-piracy measures are hard to fix, but they can be eliminated by several means which we will discuss about now. The solutions are as follows:

1. Check for a firmware update

Getting a Cinavia error message when you are simply trying to play a DVD or Blu-ray disc from Netflix could be due to the copyright protection imposed on your DVD or Blu-ray player. In some cases, this could be due to the fact that your DVD or Blu-ray Player has an outdated firmware. For finding and updating the firmware on your device, it is better to consult the device manual or the device manufacturer who should solve the problem for you. Once you update the firmware, try to play the DVD or Blu-ray Disc again.

2. Change the digital output on your DVD or Blu-ray Player

This could also fix the issue for you, but the steps for doing so may vary according to the manufacturer of the device. It is best to consult your device manual or manufacturer for the specific steps, but it typically involves opening the Settings, going to the Audio section, going to the Digital Output and finding the encoding option, which you could enable or disable. Try playing the DVD or Blu-ray afterwards, to see if the issue gets fixed.

3. Reach-out to the device manufacturer

If the issue is not fixed by the two recommended actions above, the other option which may be the best for you is to contact the device manufacturer, who should take responsibility and fix this issue for you. If you cannot get into contact with them, you are going to gave to try to play the DVD or Blu-ray Disc on your computer. For that, you can try a free and advanced Blu-ray Player for your computer, which is available for both Windows and macOS.
