You don`t actually say which of the two messages it is you are getting!
The main reason for getting a `no disc` message is when the disc is damaged in some way.
An `unknown disc` message could be a number of things. Maybe the player doesn`t recognise it, eg a data disc or SVCD disc when player can`t play these. Alternatively your region 2 and region 0 discs may be formatted using PAL or NTSC - a format your player is unable to cope with?
