• Qosmio G20 - update Tuner TV digital?

  Hello

  I have the Qosmio G20 and unfortunately it only support analog TV. I wrote to the Japan Toshiba here and they said that it is not possible to upgrade the G20 to digital television.

  It is the official manufacturer of advice, but as I know from experience, there is always another way around these things using third-party hardware and software.

  Anyone have any ideas on how this could be done?

  Hello

  The Qosmio G20 series was delivered with different hardware compatibility.
  Some of the G20 has been delivered with a TNT antenna + analog hybrid TV Tuner and DVB - T and other G20 supports only analog TV.

  Well, if your computer laptop doesn t supports digital Tv then you can try to use the tuner TNT + external.
  I sure you will find plenty of m offers in the internet.

• Qosmio G20 - TV Tuner

  Hello
  I have a G20 and have never been able to get a signal. I tried the terrestrial antenna and also my SKY box via the input RF1. Does anyone know what I might be missing?

  Someone told me I might need a download from microsoft but was not sure that (they work in the PC World). I live in the United Kingdom, and although the terrestrial signal is not large, satellite should work surely. Any ideas greatly appreciated.

  Hello, Karen

  As far as I know there is no need to download anything. If you want to connect your receiver to the G20, I recommend you to use composites in. On this path will be detected only one channel, and you need to change channels on the receiver.

  Try to detect the right channel to the Qosmio and MCE player too.

• Qosmio G20-115: TV Tuner missing 1 or 2 channels

  Hello
  Our qosmio g20 tv tuner missing 1 or 2 channels, I would understand if he did not get the channel with bad reception on our normal tv, but the channel is missing is one of the clearest of cases.
  I did the scan twice and still no luck.
  We have come an antenna on the roof and its been verified by a proffesional person and is in perfect order.

  Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this problem?

  In this forum, I see many people who have problems with the reception of the G20.
  I can watch all English channels, but the quality is very poor.

  If you use the G20 as a desktop like me, forget the G20 tv tuner and buy a freeview box (35-40 pounds).

  "I get wonderful images of a free box satellite with a satellite dish, via s-video-in port"
  and also, wonderful images of a "digital terrestrial DTT box" with a normal antenna, via the "monitor-in port.

  If the antenna works fine with digital transmissions that are notoriously more difficult
  to receive, it would be essential to correctly receive analog transmissions and, in my case, this is true for a normal TV,
  but it is not true with the G20 TV card!

  Is possible that you need an adapter "SCART to RCA", depending on what output a your decoder.

  I can jump a decoder / to another using the utility:

  "All the programs/TOSHIBA/utilities/image Enhancement Utility.
  then I click on: 'Parameter input monitor' and I can choose: "Monitor-in" or "S-video-in.

  The G20 is a wonderful machine with a beautiful screen, but in my opinion, he has a weak tv card.

  Good bye

• Downloading and installing Tuner driver - Qosmio G20

  Excuse my ignorance, but I downloaded a file zip on the Toshiba site containing files for installing a tv tuner driver (date updated 11.24.05) for my Qosmio G20 - 139 (PQG21E-01500NEN). The instructions say: '... .cochez the contents of the zip file for details of installation, but I can't find/identify a file that provides instructions on how (there are a few I clicked on this offer a warning about opening files, so, being a novice in these things, I chose to not continue).

  Can anyone advise me on what file contains the installation instructions, or how I should go about installing this driver?

  Thanks in advance for any help.

  Hi Eduar

  I t's not done this before, but as you can see there is no any file setup.exe and install the driver on the usual way. Go to device manager, chose the device and properties you can use the option of installing the driver.

  You can also start the Add Hardware Wizard.

• TV Tuner does not work on Qosmio G20

  Hello world!

  I have a problem using a TV Tuner on my Qosmio G20. I have re-installed Windows Media Center with a DVD of recovery of product, plugged the antenna and made all configurations (set up the TV signal and scan for more services), but when I press the button to watch TV it says "decoder error - the video decoder is either due to a malfunction or not installed".

• Qosmio G20 - How can I get the tuner to work?

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Qosmio G20. :) It has windows xp professional installed.

  I can access the Qosmio Player (by pressing the tv button) while the laptop is turned off. Get a snowy picture.

  I donnot have a remote control. I'm from South Africa.

  If anyone can help with the following text:

  -Do I need a remote to tune to a frequency of psecific?
  -If no, how I tune to a specific frequency without remote?
  -How to access the user interface of the Qosmio player?
  -The Qosmio accessible from Windows player?
  Is there a guide on how to install and use the Qosmio player? If so, please provide the download link.

  Thank you

  Hello

  How do you watch TV?
  Which player Qosmio do you have?
  AFAIK the Qosmio Player versions 4.3 and older do not support the DVB - T signal.

  Also I m not very good if you want to be able to receive TV channels in South Africa if this Qosmio G20 was released in European countries.
  The point is that the internal tuner would not receive the signals due to the different PAL/NTSC settings.

  Regarding scanning of channels:
  Please check this thread:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=25430

  In order to run the scan, you need to start the Qosmio player, press the F1 key and enter the Setup program.
  Here, you can do a scan. You n t need the remote!

  The other fact is that the Qosmio Player is not Windows-based applications and you cannot start if Windows. If Windows is running while you use MCE (Media Center) instead of Qosmio player.

• Qosmio G20 - sound and drivers tv tuner (digital)

  Hi all

  I recently purchased a Qosmio G20 (490ls) to the Japan and nothing else that problems have had so far.
  The original operating system that came with the computer is Windows XP Home Edition (Japanese). I can't read Japanese, but I have an English version of Windows XP MCE, so I don't think it would be a problem.

  I could not install it correctly so I delivered to a technician and he accidentally deleted all (OS, drivers, etc) and I don't have a recovery of the original disc.

  in any case, I gave him a new technology to install and they're almost finished except they lack 2 drivers - audio driver and tv tuner driver. European drivers are analog and do not work on the Japanese version, however, it needs digital drivers.

  I desperately need a "digital sound driver" and a "digital tv tuner driver", if someone could help me out or point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated =)

  Thank you

  Hello Michael

  I'm very happy you're here. Maybe you can give us some very useful information. I heard that just TV tuner to the Japan from be used worldwide without restriction standard.
  Do you know something?

  Maybe this is the reason why you can't set it up properly. I am sure that the driver for your device is designed only for the Japanese market and it is possible that our pilot European doesn t work properly. Check the driver of OUR download site

• Qosmio G20 Tuner does not not in Jersey

  Dear support team

  I purchased a Qosmio G20 of the UK through PC World. I live in Jersey and planned to use the tuner of the TV here. As far as I know, in the United Kingdom, I thought that the tuner would work in the Channel Islands, however were not able to receive a signal. I really doubt that there is a specific tuner to the Channel Islands. Do you have more information about it?

  Thank you very much
  Dr. Koch

  Hello

  I think it should work properly. I guess that TV standard is the same as in the UK. I have the best experience with cable TELEVISION and its connection to composite in the cable. Scan of the channels Qosmioplayer. Please let us know if it works.

• Qosmio G20: Qosmio player and FM Tuner

  I saw a question on the FM tuner in the Qosmio G20 series (and other portable with Qosmio Player). Users responded that the Qosmio Player has no FM tuner! That's wrong!

  I did a manual search in Qosmio Player using frequency analysis, and it is possible to scan the frequency range of the FM band. So, I found a few radio stations that I can save. The resolution is not the best but you can easily find radio stations!

  Hello

  I agree with Togan. The units are supplied with different hardware configurations.
  As a result, some units support a tuner and are supplied without the tuner.

• Qosmio G20-139 of the United Kingdom - TV tuner does not work in Libya

  Hello

  My name is m, k, sh I live in Libya.
  I bought Qosmio G20-139 until now it works normal but I would not use this pc to look at the possibility of using satellite channels. I get only the small screen in the screen of my pc.

  In the operating manual of the said (tv tuner may not only work in the country of purchase. means to the United Kingdom only)
  My equation, what can do to solve the broblem.

  Can I install any software for example or another TV tuner?
  The tv tuner in this pc, what they said is integrated.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  I think that the UK tuner will not work in Libya due to different video standards. I m talking about different settings PAL and NTSC.

  In your case, it would be desirable to use an external USB DVB - T tuner (if DVB - T is available in Libya) that supports PAL/NTSC in Libya settings.

  I think you have to look at some stores for local laptop/computer and should ask a few merchants for details.

• Internal TV tuner for the Qosmio G20 does not work

  I have a qosmio G20 and the built in TV does not work, I reinstalled the driver and the program windvr 5 but no response.
  Whenever I start the program, I can't use the installer.
  Please can someone help me?

  Hello

  Qosmio G20 was delivered with Windows MCE.
  You can also use the Media Center Microsoft watch TV on the laptop!

  Please check if the built-in TV tuner works with MCE. If so, there is nothing wrong with the tuner or the drivers!

  My laptop came not like MEDIA CENTER EDITION, it came under the home edition of Windows XP (laptop purchased in July 2005).
  I got 3 cables which I have no idea how to use...
  laptop was purchased in Dubai/Emirates and I live in Malta

  These are the cables >
  http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/7189/dsc00780gi6.jpg

  Now for my question (s):
  1 which of these cables do I need? Im just trying to figure out how to get my satellite tv or digital cable to work on my laptop.
  2 antenna adapter (see picture) is not for coaxial cable, what can I do?
  3 I did WINDVR more due to the upgrade of vista, Media Center Gets the job done but I don't know what to do... This guide has confused me even more > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/using/setup/settop.mspx

  Hi ismael,.
  I'll try to help with that, but it's a long way to the road...
  I don't know what Tv system is used to Malta (Pal)?

  The best way to set up your TV's with Media Center 2005 edition.
  Cables:
  Check the back of your cable TV installation box and find the composite or SVHS output. If you have only the composite, you can use the composite cable of the posted image. If your TV decoder has the SVHS, so you should use, to the better image than composite. You must obtain a SVHS cable for this.
  Look for the audio output rca, too. Mix with the composite cable for the audio Qosmio.

  But you must have:
  1 control cable IR, for media center 2005 configuration as well as your TV decoder. It is cable connected to the remote sensor (see fact sheet on the back).

  2 sensor for your remote control and configure it with the remote control of your TV decoder. In this way, you can control the receiver cable channels, using the remote control for your Qosmio G20 media center edition.
  Recovery: you can change the channels on your TV decoder using the qosmio remote control.

  3. remote control for you media Center 2005, one that came with your Qosmio g20.

  Open the TV on Media Center 2005 configuration and follow all the steps required for installation.
  You must follow the guide, as is explained in the image you posted:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/using/Setup/SetTop.mspx

  If you have all these cables, you can use the Qosmio player to watch TV. It is not tied to windows OS.
  Here, simply connect the coaxial cable and let the Qosmio player search for available channels in your area. Qosmio player has the opportunity to set the colour TV system in any part of the world. all NTSC regions in all PAL regions.
  If you have the remote control for your Qosmio, TV keys will work directly with the Qosmio remote sensor on board, without needing the external sensor of Microsoft.

  I hope this helps you
