• Satellite Pro M70 does not read the DVD of some manufacturers

  Recently, my Satellite Pro M70 stopped reading some DVDs, specifically verbatim...
  When I put in, it is just to see any disk. If I put the same disk into any other computer, even my friends Toshiba Satellite Pro M70 - than mine, even it reads normally.

  Any ideas?

  WEIRD laser could be at fault, or it is maybe dirty. Try to clean the lens with a Microfiber cloth.

• Satellite Pro SPM30 dual layer dvd?

  Hi all,
  I'm trying to find out if the SPM30 can support

  Any thoughts?

  You're right about the DVD specification. Your SP M30 has DVD Super-Multi drive but he don t support writing on surface Double layer.

• Portege 2000, Win XP & remarkable DVD player

  Hello!

  I hust got a Portege 2000 to replace my old CT 3480. I had used a remarkable DVD drive Port (NWDVDPR) for the 3480 and now I want to use w / 2000. However, there are no drivers for the DVD specifically designed for XP. What can I do?

  Thank you!
  Stewart

  Hello

  In my opinion, you should check the DVD player manufacturer s site and check if it is possible to download the correct driver. On the Toshiba site, you can find a few designed drivers for Toshiba drives.

• Equium A100-147: can not play games becauce slow DVD player

  Hello

  I have a laptop Equium A100-147. I tried many games on my laptop which should conform to the specifications required for example battlefield 2, however, these games does not work and I didn't know why. I then realized that all the games I tried were all on 4 DVD-ROM drive demanding x, and the specifications I provided with my laptop did not specify what kind of DVD player, I had another super multi layer or something.

  It is while I tried the games that were demanding CD-ROM which all worked fine, I then tried a game that was 2 x DVD ROM demanding that worked apart from a small problem with models of characters not displayed, so I took back defective. Then I tried a 1 x DVD-ROM game that worked perfectly.

  Today, I decided to get my DVD specifications, where I found that my laptop should read 8 x DVD - ROM drives.
  So my question is, is my defective DVD player for not playing more than 1 x DVD - ROM games? And can I contact Toshiba or my provider for repair or replacement or my problem would be something else?

  Thank you, Josh

  Hello

  As far as I know the laptop was delivered with the drive UJ - 841S and the drive supports 8 x DVD-ROM.
  Of course, there must be something wrong if the drive cannot read DVD-ROM media at full speed. The middle is not supported or the drive malfunctions

  What you can do is search for the update of the firmware. Many laptops come with the same drive. See the categories of driver and, possibly, there is a new update of the firmware.

  You can also try to remove the physical drive from the laptop and reboot the device without the drive. Then turn off the appliance, install the drive again and the boot upward.
  The laptop must initialize the firmware again and maybe this will help

  But it seems you notebook is not very old and the warranty is valid. If you need to contact the ASP in your country for more details and possibly for disc replacement

• DVD to Mini 1000 Mi with Ubuntu came with the Nero Vista/XP software

  My HP DVD arrived before my Mini 1000 Mi, so I plugged the DVD for my Asus 901 with Hardy Heron and no windows. The appearance of CD to read the works of DVD. However, the software that comes with the DVD specifies Vista and other recent Microsoft OSs. Look back to order the Mini 1000 Mi, I said 2 gig of ram, and a few screens later, was offered and chose the DVD burner.  Having already specified the version of Ubuntu Mini 1000, I assumed that the DVD would be fully functional with Ubuntu and the Ubuntu Mini 1000 Mi. In the meantime, I'm puzzled why HP embarquerions a DVD of Vista-software for Ubuntu Mini 1000 Mi.  ???  A web search shows that Nero AG (manufacturer of software for the DVD) also made versions of Linux. The homesick DVD (IE Vista) was delivered to me?  HP expects that some people would be has buy a Ubuntu Mini 1000 Mi and (b) buy the DVD sale-bundled assuming that it should be bundled with the Linux software?  Comments and suggestions appreciated.

  Huffner,

  Thnx for the reply. I continued questions websearch DVD that they concern the HP Mini 1000 Mi and Linux (Ubuntu).   I have learned that my Asus 901 under Hardy Heron and no windows has Brasero, a standard CD/DVD muli-faceted program in Hardy Heron. I found K3b via Synaptic, but you have not added to K3b for my Asus 901. When my HP Mini 1000 Mi (Ubuntu) happens, I'll see if she Brasero or K3b.

  My intuition came to be that HP sends a generic HP DVD which will almost always include the CD Nero 7 Essentials for Vista/XP etc. Since I have two XP machines that I hardly use now that I have a Linux (and soon another), I'm using the Nero CD to use the external with the XP machines if ever needed DVD gadget.

• Number of backup DVD 8 (13) has no data

  Hello

  My laptop HP Pavilion G61 crashed on the weekend. I used HP Recovery Manager and supported all the files on 13 DVDs. I have restored the laptop to the factory specifications. Started to reload the DVDs, number 1 to 7 went in no problem, but number 8 keeps having injected and then be prompted to load the number of DVD 8. Looks like that 8 DVD contains no data. How can I get around #8 and always load DVD 9 to 13?

  Thank you.

  Hello Jovette.

  I understand you have questions complete restoration of your data backup DVD. specifically it crashes on 8 DVD and never acknowledges, is that correct?

  If the PC does not recognize the disc, you're likely right, 8 disc has no data or is damaged (for example a bad DVD). There is no way to pass a certain DVD, unfortunately. However, if you insert a disc in the drive and then go to the computer and open the DVD from there, can view you the individual files you have backed up? If so you can copy them manually.

  I see another thing for you to try. The reader may have issues reading the disc because it is scratched or dirty. Even a small amount of oil from your fingers or a small scratch can lead to problems of reading the disc. Then, check the box of the drive. Is it scratched or dirty at all? If she has even the smallest scratch or damage that I suggest you take it to a local store that can shine the disc for you in the hope that it will allow the laptop to read.

• burning DVDs to the size max

  While doing a dvd mp4 how can I do burn at the maximum size of the disk? My record is 3.5 GB (mp4), but when its burnt to dvd it narrows to 2 GB. Is it possible to burn the same (3.5 GB) on a dvd? Thank you.

  Still must transcode an mp4. If your settings in Encore determine the bit rate and therefore the file size and quality. Better workflow is to export MPEG2-DVD (which requires the DVD specifications) of your editing program.

• Lack of DVD-ROM content and directory on Mac.

  We wrote just a job with a DVD-ROM on the root directory content. It's something we have done regularly. This time the files were not visible on the Mac. They are visible on any PC. Not only the files from the DVD-ROM invisible but all the DVD content of the files.  If no Audio_TS or Video_TX folder. What is happening on all Macs.   Version 6.0.1.013 callback.

  We discovered the problem. We are still not sure why this caused the question but all .pdf in the DVD-ROM folder files were in Spanish. Eliminating the accents on file names, went around. We have reduced to the first .pdf files by burning the DVD with the other files and it worked fine. Then we changed the names of the files and presto!  It's very weird, but I remember my early days of DVD authoring that some characters are treated as commands in the DVD specifications. I'm more likely to attribute it to the characters causing the Mac to write incorrectly or not properly finalize directory. Whatever it is, this fixed. Strange but true.

• low-resolution video on DVD

  Hi all

  I have a 30-minute video that I put in place the first Pro on my Mac Mini using CS6 and OS X 10.10.4.  My video has 1920 x 1080 image resolution.  When I invoke again to generate the DVD, I get the following window.  This indicates my DVD 720 x 480 video resolution, which is much lower res then 1920 x 1080.  I am unable to change that in again.  The DVD which results when played on my TV 52 "looks pretty bad.  The entire video uses only 1.7 GB of the + 4 GB on the disk.

  Is there anyway that I can improve the resolution of the DVD?

  Thank you

  Kevin H.

  

  720 x 480 are dvd specifications. You can not change this.

  If you want the best resolution to make a bluray disc.

  If you have a dvd look a little better on a big screen TV use with upscaler or blurayplayer dvd player to read the dvd.

• Can I make a DVD that will play a combination of video and audio together... and only audio only?

  So I wonder if this is possible on a DVD in any way can play on a DVD player?

  Thanks for any idea :-)

  MArk

  I'm not sure that I really understand the question

  A 'film' DVD is designed to read a movie... a mixture of video and audio

  I don't know if the DVD specification provides only audio... but maybe the audio with a track video white/black?

• Export an mpeg file, or in a DVD format? questions around this :)

  Hi friends

  Can I ask a silly question?

  I wonder, when I finished the film editing, audio, effects and all that. When I am VERY satisfied with the result (you know the feeling )

  OK, everything is on my calendar, and I press Ctrl + Mr. I chose MPEG2, and I get a file that I put on my desk. In my Office I burn with Windows DVD Maker, choosing to make a dvd in this program.

  Here's my question: do I have to use other then PRpro to create a formatted DVD DVD disc?

  Is it the same thing to burn a DVD file on a plate, then burn a plate of paper DVD format?

  And then, why can't prememiere do that?

  I use the Quebec in media encoding, but it makes no different...

  Help me understand this, please.

  Best regards from Norway

  Stig

  Hi Stig,

  In the first, when you choose export > Media, Media Encoder opens and you have the options of format.

  "MPEG-2" is NOT compatible for DVD burning - you will need to specifically choose "MPEG-2 for DVD" so that the encoding settings are correct and legal to meet the DVD specification.

  In addition, it is insufficient to simply burn the MPEG-2 file on a DVD like 'data '. Yes, a computer he will play, but a DVD player will not recognize as a "DVD-video". You need to use again or another software "DVD Authoring" that formats all the info correctly. The end result is a disc that contains a "VIDEO_TS" folder, inside which are. VOB, nothing what it says MPEG-2 files.

  So you can export good MPEG-2 for the Media Encoder DVD files, and then IMPORT those goods rappelling, or within the first, you can choose "file > Dynamic Link > yet" and her you will go straight into the still and the encoding is done behind the scenes.

  But yes, you MUST use Adobe Encore (or similar) to get a DVD drive works.

• Equipment for playback of the AVCHD of the EP 10 DVD

  Just downloaded PE10.  Nice to see quick and flawless (up :-)) support for my Sony HDR SR7 .m2ts files.)

  I saw the tutorial on the sharing of high-quality AVCHD on a normal DVD (not blueray).  This sounds good.

  Which player of the DVD specification would be necessary to read the DVD on an HDTV?  I have a DVD player which is probably 5 years old.  It was before there was a bunch of HD stuff around, and while I don't really know what "upscaling" etc. is about new DVD players, I see in the stores, I'm sure that my DVD player has none of this.

  Or do I need to buy a blueray player to play these types of DVD AVCHD/non-blueray created by PE10?

  Thanks for any help.

  Dave

  Well, we got there in the end!  I'm overjoyed.  Thanks to all who helped.  I can finally enjoy my HD camcorder and share images of the way I've always wanted.

  At the risk of extending this discussion, I will summarize what I did:

  I have a Sony HDR - SR7E HD camcorder.  This device is a hard drive (as opposed to mini DVD or other).  The manual says that it records HD video in the AVCHD 1440 x 1080/50i format / audio in Dolby Digital 5.1 ch.  I live in France, so it's a PAL (as opposed to NTSC) device.

  When I use the Sony software to take movies recorded off the unit, he wrote a number of .m2ts files in my hard drive.

  Start APE10.  I chose the "PAL - HDD, memory Flash camcorders - HD 1080i 25 (50i)" preset.  Your may of course differ.

  I added the .m2ts files to my project by selecting the tab 'Get media', "Files and folders").

  Once the .m2ts in APE files, I simply dragged a block of them down on the timeline in the usual way.  I didn't put any transition, but I added a few landmarks from stage for the test.  I used about 10 minutes of video.

  For the disc Menu, I used the model of 'Fun '.  This is one of the four that is provided, and it happens to say 'HD' on it, but don't know if it's significant (goes for test options menu later).

  Then, I put a blank DVD-R disc (not Blueray) standard in my standard DVD burner (not Blueray).

  In the "Sharing" tab, I clicked on the option 'drive '.  I chose the "AVCHD" option and click on burn.

  When the burning was finished, I took the disc in the living room and put it in my new Sony BDP - S480 Blueray player.  This is related to my Sony Bravia HD TV via HDMI.

  I hit play and was amazed!  I thought the quality of the TV is indistinguishable from that observed by playing directly from the camera into the TV via HDMI.

  Notes:

  The Blueray player was not the bottom of the line of Sony, but it was only 129 euros, which means probably less than $100 in the United States.  Sony sells one here for 89 euros, so it must be REALLY cheap in the United States!

  My tests and the results of others in this forum suggest you should limit the duration of your timeline to 25 minutes (about 4 GB) to ensure that all goes well when recording on a 4.7 GB disc.

  Hope this can help someone.  With APE10, I suspect it's going to be a rush on the Blueray drives...

  Thanks again to all.  A lot more to learn, so I don't know that I'll talk to you elsewhere in the forum!

  Elsewhere, Steve, I'm enjoying your tutorials at Muvipix.  Look forward to exploring more of your site.

• Adding video to a DVD Menu

  Hello world

  I am trying to create a DVD Menu. I want a video to loop through the menu, but I can't find out how to do this. Do I have to make the menu as a video file, with the video file play on (say for example supported mov), and then create the buttons around the mov? I guess I have to configure the menu looping? Is to do with a file menu imported from photoshop, I use the layers as placeholders for my buttons anyway.

  See you soon

  Chris

  I am looking for a way to get the video in a box on a layer of photoshop.

  There is no such thing. It is inherent in the DVD specification. You can have only one video of BG with all the motion already baked in. As Stan mentioned, at best you can exploit the functionality of creating thumbnails of yet to an extent, but all the rest should be created in a publication / video editing program.

• How to create a DVD with downloadable pdf content for PC and MAC

  Hello

  I need to create a DVD where the text (information) on the DVD should be downloadable as a PDF (for PC and MAC)

  I didn't ' t find answers in the chapters help (it's also not so easy because my application is in German)

  I really appreciate if someone nows how to do with even CS5.

  Thank you

  The computer doesn't do not part of the DVD specification, so you can not do this

  The closest you can do is put your PDF files or text in a file and include that file in the contents of the ROM which again will then include in the project that is written on the disc (help looking for rom content)

  You cannot link to the files in your project again (as I have said, is not part of the DVD specification) in order to send you an external note with directions to the folder on the DVD, or put a page title linked from a menu with directions line... or both
