  • Can I replace my DVD burner drive for the drive on Aspire E5 - 551 G-T018?

    Hello

    Recently I opened my Matthew acer aspire E5 - 551 G-T018 to replace my 1 TB to 240 GB SSD HARD drive.

    And now I recently saw on a website that there are these caddy that can be used to replace the DVD rom for extra HDD or SSD.

    My laptop has a DVD. It is held by a screw in the back. DVD rom doesn't have a SATA connector, but some small connector and SATA, I don't know his name.

    What I was wondering is would it be possible to replace the DVD rom on this model for a caddy with my old HDD in there?

    And if it's possible. Thickness of which would I need for my future caddy?

    Thank you!

  • DVD burner drive ignores the media inserted to Backing Up disc

    I installed the Win7 Home Premium (32 bit) operating system on an HP Desktop running 4 GB of ram. I can't create a system or system repair disc image because the DVD writer (HP 740 b) does not recognize the media disc, I insert the burner when you are prompted.  I insert a blank disc DVD - R new Sony, not formatted on most of the rehearsals, but spent the last three times on a DVD + R Verbatim disk with EXACTLY the same result.  THE NE WILL NOT PREPARE THE DISK, IE DISC FORMATER. WHY?  I welcome your thoughts and suggestions, but request that you read my question before I answer that I have several times and carefully followed the advice of Jack in charge of microsoft.  Thank you.

  • Best options to Export of first CC at CS6 Encore for creating Blu - Ray and DVD discs?

    Howdy!

    I have files AVCHD (MTS) of a marriage, I recorded a couple of years (Yes, it is really low on the priority list), I want to change to create DVDs and Blu - Ray discs.  I am aware that I need to make some significant cut to get everything that I consider important to even together double disc DVD and have a lot more leeway with the Blu - Ray.  If I do the editing in Premiere CS6, I can use Dynamic Link to import several chronologies in my project again and (of course) to develop a Menu that the user can use to choose what they want to see.  Then again you can do transcoding with the timelines to get the videos to put them on any disc format created by me (DVD or BD).  HOWEVER...

    If I edit the videos with CC PP (2015), I have the relationship dynamic to again (gee, thanks, Adobe!) and to each of my deadlines export to a file, load these in CS6 again and again, let the transcode various chronologies as the best it can to fit the desired output average.

    So the question in all of this - what is the 'best' format to export CC PP for later import Encore CS6?

    I can't use the MPEG2-DVD or MPEG2 Blu - Ray, because it assumes that each video is to use all the space available on the disk (same problem with H.264 Blu - Ray)!

    All right now, I am limited to Codecs and presets available in first/Media Encoder programs.

    I you'd be grateful for ideas on what could be the best (closest lossless?) format to use for the export/import of SD or HD videos!

    Thanks in advance!  {I hope the question makes sense...}

    If you do not want to use mpeg2-dvd or mpeg2-Bluray (I prefer BD H.264, this is a codec better) you can export to avi with codec lossless Lagarith as UT. Also, you can use these HD codec. But these files are huge.

    Can stick to mpeg2-dvd and BD preset and use a bitrate calculator to get the best fit on the disc.

  • My new HighDing SATA burner Blu - ray BD-R/RE Drive burner does not play Blu - ray discs.

    Have a HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook PC running Win 7 Home Premium (64-bit).

    Experienced a DVD/CD drive failure and replaced by a new author HighDing SATA Blu - ray BD-R/RE drive drive.

    The new drive is anything but play Blu - ray discs - would appreciate any comment full of resources available from the community of HP!

    Thank you, Bob

    Hi, Bob:

    Have you installed the required playback blu - ray software?

    If you did, then I don't know why the drive can't read the blue ray discs.

    If you do not, please try this software.

  • Windows 7 Ultimate X 64 Blu - ray reading issues

    Hello

    I have a problem reading Blu - ray discs.  When I place the disc in the drive, he sees that the drive is there, but when I try to access a folder on the disc, there's nothing there.  Strangely, I can disable the Blu - ray player and re - enable in Device Manager and the drive is instantly read by the reader.  The reader has no problem reading DVD or CD.
    At this point, I am sure that the issue is not with the Blu - ray player I installed 2 different disks of 2 different manufacturers and have had the same problem.  Each time, I could only get the player to read the content of the Blu - ray disc in deactivating and then reactivating the drive in Device Manager.
    I understand that with this workaround, the disc works effectively, but I don't think it is a good solution and would rather the disk read simply by placing the disc in the drive.
    I have searched for a solution on this issue for more than a month now and have only found solutions involving the upgrade of software reading or drivers.  I've already updated the firmware on the drive to the latest version and I know that the reading software is not in question.
    Any thoughts on what this could be and how to fix it?

    FOUND!  I did a Google search for the registry key and Blu - ray and concluded that the key who manages the readers of DVD and whatnot is called 4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318 and can be found by searching under HKLM\SYSTEM in regedit.  Under this heading, there is an entry called "LowerFilters".  I deleted it and restarted the computer.  Like that, I am now able to put a Blu - ray disc in the drive and browse its content to you only.  No longer toggle in the Device Manager!

    Thanks for your suggestions.  I appreciate you taking the time to read my post and response.  I just already exhausted those options.
  • Pioneer BLU - RAY and DVD discs not recognized by Windows 7

    The discs were fine until I installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Before my hard drive crashed, I was using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. The computer was built by a local store, so I don't know if they have done something special to get discs running, but readers are reported as compatible with Win 7.

    Readers are:

    DVD PIONEER DVR - 218L

    My motherboard is ASUS P6TD Deluxe, BIOS 0106

    I am very handicapped and rely heavily on my computer to work. I can't load my well-being critical software until I get these discs work, then I'll be very grateful for any help.

  • Satellite 5200 801: how to replace DVD burning drive?

    Hello
    A few days ago, I decided to replace my CD/DVD burning drive (burn DVD at 1 x) with a more faster and more modern.
    The problem is that, while turning on my laptop, it stops without any error message, as if she could not recognize the hard drive, so there is no professional Windows startup (problem of configuration master / slave?).
    I tried with two different burning drives and I also upgraded the BIOS of the laptop to version 1.40 (date 17/04/2003), but there was no result.
    Help me thanks
    Riccardo - Lecce - ITALY (South)

    You guessed it right,

    It's a question of master/slave/CS.
    Find out your old drive (firmware DI has something like 170) and try to locate the sense of them (current setting of M/S/CS) of it through the Internet on specific DVD player forums.

    Then determine WHAT type of disc, you will need to buy to make it work on your computer (or find the firmware suitable for do this... you'll need a different laptop that DOESN'T RECOGNIZE the DVD drive in the State, it is now).

    DVD Slimline portable computer readers usually do not come with a rider to make this adjustment (M/S/CS) on your own but are set with the internal firmware for this. There are other ways on how to get it to work (to force a shortcut on the back of the card), but I would not go for it if I were you.

  • I get the blue screen in the LR development mode, even though I have updated the driver for the graphics card on this new laptop. It's an AMD Radeon R5 M335 4 GB memory DDR3, core i7 6th gen processor. What should do?

    Hi guys, I get the blue screen in the LR development mode, even though I have updated the driver for the graphics card on this new laptop. It's an AMD Radeon R5 M335 4 GB memory DDR3, core i7 6th gen processor. What should do? Thank you

    This Eizo has a normal resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. I expect not to see a lot of benefits of using the GPU. You really see the advantage to screens that are at least 4K (3840 x 2160 pixels) or more. On small screens, you can see some benefits with smoother updates if you ONLY use the base sliders to develop. If you use brushes, turning on the GPU can actually slow you down a bit. In most cases, loading images in develop is also slower when you activated! There are a few illustrative notes to an engineer from Adobe that you can read here: notes for Lightroom CC GPU (2015) in order to better understand what is happening. Currently, in most cases, I recommend leaving off the coast. I think that Adobe is trying to improve and have more cards supported, but it is not yet completely there.

  • CS 6 (Mac) - do Blu Ray and DVD discs

    I have projects where both a Blu Ray and DVD are necessary.  Is there a way to define the encoding of file DVD:

    (1) lower the Bitrate (still still believes a rate much higher than necessary; often exceeding the space on the DVD)

    (2) together 2 for MPEG video allow big screen (option shows black bands and confirms no widescreen)

    Lately, I've been coding components DVD separately, but still requires a new chapter markers when replacing the video tracks.  So I will use again for DVD or separately with DVD Studio Pro.

    Thank you!

    1 no problem at all to do this, simply stop using automatic transcoding settings & enter values manually.

    2 - Make sure that the sequence is correctly interpreted as screen 16:9 instead of 4:3 full frame (click right/interpret the film or edit pictures)

    For a Blu - ray player, I would recommend AVC (H.264) MPEG-2 - you'll get two times more content in the same space, it's a more efficient codec.

  • Satellite L505 - installation of Windows 7 can't find driver for the DVD

    Hello

    I bought a Satellite L505 with Windows 7 home 64 bit. Now, I want to install Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. However when the installation starts he reports that it cannot find a driver for the DVD.

    Who can help

    Hey,.

    If you do a search on Google you will find a lot of results on this error message and in general it s associated with the middle of the installation (DVD itself).

    Do you use an original disc of Microsoft Windows 7, or is it a copy to a friend?

    You should only use the Microsoft original disks with valid software.

    There is no such thing as a pilot for ODD (optical disc drive). It uses the standard Microsoft driver. Try please remove the disc from the Device Manager, then restart the laptop. After reboot the ODD will be detected and installed it again. Check please if the problem persists.

    If yes I recommend you to install the driver for DVD-RAM (DVDForm Utility). You can find it on the download page of Toshiba. I use the 3.0.9.0a version. and it works perfectly.
