Sorry to say it, but if cleaning and updating didn鈥檛 work, your disc drive might be toast. Time for a repair shop or contacting Sony support.
First, try cleaning the disc with a soft, lint-free cloth. Sometimes it's just a bit of dirt or smudge causing the problem. If that doesn't work, try restarting your PS4 and see if it recognizes the disc after a reboot.
If your PS4 doesn鈥檛 recognize any disc, try entering Safe Mode and rebuilding the database. That can resolve a lot of weird software quirks!
