I own a Samsung UBD-M8500 Ultra theater dvd player . has developed a problem. All is well when I turn the unit on, but when I push open, the door opens, the tray slides out,I insert a dvd, push close, the tray closes, and re-opens.. On it's own. Immediately. Every time. The only way to close tray is to shut off machine. Any help would be appreciated.

Your Samsung UBD-M8500's tray reopening is likely due to a dirty optical sensor, a mechanical issue with the tray's gears/motor, or a software glitch, often fixable with a power cycle/reset, firmware update, or gentle cleaning of the lens/sensor; if those fail, the mechanical parts (motor, gears) might need professional repair or replacement, as they wear out.
