Can I put Blu - ray on Qosmio G30 player?

Hi all

I have a Qosmio G30-163 with a HD DVD Drive (MATSU * A G8CC00031720) and I am currently trying to upgrade.

I recently bought a kit to upgrade to 4 GB of RAM from Crucial (CT2KIT25664AC667) and am looking in more upgrades.

Anyone know if it is possible to replace the HD DVD player with a Blu - ray player?

My research was led to the Sony Optiarc BC-5500 which I found has the same height dimension (12.7 mm) and also the same interface at the rear (E-IDE) connector.

I read in the forums that someone has managed to use a similar disc on a Qosmio and that the player may need to be configured for the slave instead of master mode.

If anyone knows if it would work or that there more information I would be very happy!

Kind regards

Hello

I didn't upgrade my Toshiba laptop with a Blue-ray player, but I also read in the forum that some people have managed to replace the drive internal with a blue-ray player.
I think you should have a good chance to get the blue-ray player working on this Qosmio since the GPU and the interface are compatible.

Anyway, please post some results after the upgrade.

  • CS5 will still support the MCE Blu - ray on Mac Pro Player?

    It's basically my question:

    CS5 will still support the MCE Blu - ray on Mac Pro Player?

    It is y harly any info the hardware on the web site of Adobe support more. It's just all hype sales!  They used to tell you which disks have been supported, but now that still seems to just be an afterthought in CS5, there is not ehardware in detail everything that is taken in charge and what is not...

    This new MCE Blu - ray player looks like a wonderful solution, but only if Encore CS5 on Mac would support it.

    Thank you!

    I am positive that your Mac Pro has the connectors. The SATA cable it can be somewhat difficult if you're not comfortable deleting some parts with a screwdriver, but I found it very easy.

    Cables SATA sitting around, I had had a little long boxes on the ends of the connector forcing me to have to remove a small amount of plastic from the piece of fan housing. I think that if you buy a kit from OWC cable they include cables that are lower profile but whatever it is, it's not too bad. I just use a dremel to remove a small piece about 1 "x 1" directly above the ports. "

    Here are some instructions I found: http://www.newertech.com/downloads/nwtmpqxe32.pdf (Note: the pages in this guide are all mixed!) These guys here sell a kit that delivers these unused ports of SATA to eSATA ports.

    You will see that they have low profile cable I was referring to that and so they didn't need to cut the case fan at all. I would say just OWC (www.macsales.com), because they know what you are looking for and you can sell a kit that has the cables you need, including 4-pin-power to SATA power. I recommend you to install the two cables while you're here, so if you later decide to add another SATA drive or an SSD, you will not need to take off again. BTW, add an OCZ Vertex 2 60 GB SSd drive as my boot drive for the OS and applications has been the single most visible upgrade I did and makes the Mac Pro just smoke! Same value as I just pasted the small SSD up there in the optical Bay without a mounting kit, and it works great!

    In all honesty, theough, the external enclosure for Blu - Ray works well and is easier to access the drive, because it is now located on my desktop. If you're uncomfortable to disassemble your machine just get quadruple housing interface with the chip set Oxford 934DSB that I can guarantee you that it works out of the box. It cost $140 for the whole machine, not bad compared to the alternatives.

    The reader is this: LG WH10LS30. Looks like it's still on sale for Newegg $79 until the end of the year.

    Housing I have is the following: BYTECC ME535-Limited-BK. Another $60. The OWC, looks a lot prettier in a Mac environment but costs $40 more for the same features all in brushed aluminium.

    I've been creating and burning with yet but Roxio Toast 10 Titanium burns and the authors of the Blu - Ray just wanted to make a CD/DVD

    Good luck!

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop must be equipped with a Blue-ray player and the player must manage the disc BD, BD - R SL, DL, BD - RE SL, DL, BD - ROM.

    I don t think you need a special driver
    The driver is part of the system.

    You only need a software that allows you to watch Blue-Ray disc.
    But the Blue-ray player software must be pre-installed

  • How can I watch 3D blu ray on Qosmio F750 - 1013 X movies?

    Hi people... just bought Qosmio f750-1013 x and its supposed to be free 3D glasses. I bought a blu - ray 3d disc, but the only player available on my laptop (toshiba blu ray disk drive) does not yet play the movie. It loads just to the top of the starting part where you are supposed to select the subtitles menu but the menu subtitle is not even... what I see, it's just the background image of the film. I clicked on nvidia 3d and also enable 3d on the fixed player...

    The xtunes application seems to work very well I see my face of follow-up.

    Is it also possible to play other videos 3d other than 3d blu - ray disc? If Yes, can someone guide me?

    Thanks in advance...

    Hello

    > When I play these files using a normal Media Player, these files are already in the "left right split image" to b viewed in 3D

    I suppose that the normal Media Player does not support the options side by side or intertwined like Toshiba Blueray player made.
    But it seems that the Toshiba Blueray player does not support the Matroska format so you wouldn't be able to read these files using the Toshiba Blueray player.

    I found some interesting info from Toshiba:
    + 3D video content not displayed in 3D when you use the disc drive Blu - ray Toshiba on the Qosmio F750 +.

  • Blu - Ray on Windows Media Player movies

    I bought a HP Pavilion Elite HPE computer refurbished last July that included a blu-ray/dvd/cd player. I have windows 7 and have never had any problems, watch movies or play CDs until yesterday, May 19, 2012. I just bought a blu - ray movie after work and he put in my computer to watch and I got the message that windows media player can not play movies blu - ray on a virtual drive and can read them on a separate bd - rom drive. I was wondering why windows media player no longer plays blu - ray discs, and if he's not playing these kind of movies, how long is it able to read regular DVDs and CDs?

    Hello txrkhound,

    I suggest reviewing this thread on playback of Bluray discs in Windows 7:
    The summary is that you will need to download third party software to play Bluray discs as Windows Media Player does not support it.
    Windows Media Player will play DVDs and CDs, but not of Blurays.

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Apparently, he uses the same disks as the dv7 series because the dv7 repair is provided for the M7 series as well. You want to just read (watch) Blu - Ray or do you want to burn them, too?

    Here are the reference numbers for optical drive:

    This company has the drive read-only for sale but the price is high:
