• Pavilion Desktop PC p7-1414: DVD will not play video

  All of a sudden my DVD will not play on my computer.  DVD will play the data but not video.  Check Device Manager, which States that the device is functioning properly.  Insert other discs that have always played, but now they are not. Videos will play, however, on television.  No new hardware installed to cause a conflict. Checking for updates for the driver, but there are no new updates/drivers to install.

• Why some DVDs will not play in my computer DVD player?

  I have a small collection of commercial DVD movies.  Most of them come from the place of the U.S. market, and some come from Asia... He play ALL these DVD in my Phillips DVD player that is connected to my TV.

  But only some of these DVD will play in my DVD player which is in my computer Dell Inspiron 531 with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  This computer has a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive.

  Some of the DVDs that will play on my computer are the American market, and some of them are of the Asian market, so I don't think that this has nothing to do with why some of these DVDs will not play on my computer.

  DVDs that play fine in my Phillips DVD on my TV player that will not play on my computer don't yet seem to close at play on my computer.  The DVD that will play on my computer liquidation (you can hear the noise) in the DVD player in 20 seconds and they start playing automatically in Windows Media Player... but I welcomed all others who won't have to sit in the DVD player for several minutes each in my tests and nothing happens... There is no wind sound and all nothing is happening on the computer screen.

  This doesn't seem to be a problem with the driver software for the disk hard because some of the DVDs will play.

  None of these DVDs are buckled and all of them are clean.

  I tried two or three times test each of DVDs that won't play, the removed from drive and put them back in.

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Hi Dale,

  Although I never had no problem with the DVD or the CD I burned on PC, I think you're going to probably the same thing, that I've been with this internal DVD/CD player, is not a software problem, but just the characteristics of a lower quality DVD/CD player, and it isn't necessarily the symptoms of a dying man in car , but just a stock car low quality that some computer manufacturers cut corners with.
  The drive in the computer that I was referring in this thread is a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive. Which may or may not be identical or similar to the reader, you have problems with, but the computer on which the reader is underway is a Dell Inspiron 531.
  Through the information that I've gathered on this thread and on another forum, I came to the conclusion that it's just a cheap player who gives intermittent performance recognizing various DVD, but as I said, the drive I troubleshooting always recognize DVDs and CDs that I burned in it... It was just the DVD movie that I have problems with.
  I dug my loyal reader DVD LaCie and plugged and I had no problems with him acknowledging and play ONE of my DVDs on this machine, which proves that the problem has nothing to do with the software system or DVD player software, as in the case suggested by someone else on this thread.
  Just buy yourself a Firewire drive or USB-2 DVD decent and you're probably fine.

• Satellite 1400 DVD will not play DVD

  Hello

  After cleaning the notebook of the cousin of my fiancee, who had a number of viruses, the DVD player will play is no longer the DVD (it will play data CD, however, can read data DVD as well, but I don't have any of those). When I put a movie disc, it will try and try to read it, and in the end, he gave up. If I click on the drive again, it asks me to put it on a disc.

  I tried all sorts of things to fix. The DVD-Rom is a Hitachi GDR-8081n. I uninstalled and let Windows detect it again, I uninstalled the secondary IDE channel is on, to ensure implementation in DMA mode (it was in PIO), no effect. I loaded the latest version of WinDVD, no luck. I uninstalled WinDVD and installed PowerDVD, no effect. I manually deleted cdrom.sys and had put Windows back, without result. I found an update of the firmware somewhere, but unfortunately it simply does not work (it calls for the CD/DVD is not actually present).

  Someone had a similar problem and figured out what to do? Search online for those who have had similar problems with other DVDs, the usual assumption is that it is a hardware failure. It is quite possible that this is the case, I guess, but it would really be a coincidence for making it happen the same day wherever I tried to wipe the drive, so I am doubtful.

  Any assistance that may be provided is much appreciated. Thank you.

  Hi Elio,

  From your description of the problem, I think that your DVD player has a problem with the laser. IN a combi laser scanner uses two different frequencies, one for CD and one for DVD.

  I suspect that the frequency of DVD is not working properly. The fact that the player to repeatedly try to read a DVD when you insert one indicates to me that the software works correctly, but the laser is not able to focus properly on the DVD.

  Unfortunately, your only real option is to consult an authorized Service Agent or replace the drive yourself if it is the least expensive option.

  Best wishes

• HD - DVD will not play on Satellite P200-123 unable to output to external device

  Hello

  Yesterday I bought a P200-123. One of the first things I tried after installation of Vista originally ran a HD-DVD. I know that the drive is fine as it works in my Xbox 360. Unfortunately, it has not worked with the software provided the HD-DVD player - the play icon will light up and then I get this error message:

  "Impossible for the release of the video on an external device. Please change your display keys of the device by pressing the Fn + F5 after the end of the application. »

  I don't have an external display connected to the laptop. I tried different discs but all gave me the same error. I then carried on the update of drivers and install a bunch of Windows updates. I tried several times the HD-DVD player in the countless updates and restarts but I still get the same error. Frustration, I bought PowerDVD Ultra. Who played the film for about a second before giving me an error:

  "Failed to initialize the display secure session - (error Code = 0122).

  The error dialog box goes on to say that the error can be caused by an incompatible graphics driver or even because I use a Setup dual monitor. The reference to two monitors is common to every player application so I wonder if the problem is in this area. I have not connected to a secondary screen but when I look at the standard windows display properties or the ATI Catalyst control center app dialog I see a disabled secondary monitor. I guess that's normal - there is no obvious way to remove the secondary display disabled.

  Can anyone help me to work the HD-DVD playback?

  Thank you

  Ian

• DVD will not play on the computer.

  my computer crashed.  The computer files were all saved, but I can't find any programs.  For example, I can no longer play a dvd.  I have Windows Media Player, but it won't play the dvd from the library movie.  Also, when I go to computer/CDrom, the CDrom is empty.

  Thank you for your help.
