Steve:
The SONY DVP S7700 is from circa 2000 (my SONY DVP S560D is from the same production year). Other than redbook CD's (no CDR-R or CDR-RW's) and production DVD's, the SONY's will not play anything else. You can go on Google and search on "SONY C13:00" and spend the next few hours reading away. I know that this could imply that Blockbuster's DVD's could be DVD+; DVD-; etc. and I don't know enough to say either way.
DVD players have improved tremendously since 2000. I just upgraded to a SONY DVD recorder (the SONY GX300 for $350) which recognizes most variations on the DVD theme. If it is just a DVD player that you want, take a look at Panasonic's F87/97 (single player/changer) for $90-$115. Super build and super performer and it recognizes at least a dozen different formats/variations.
Regards, Rich
