    Hello

    Normally I don't expect that optical drives on laptops have same life expectancy compared to fixed players of our systems in the House. I always use external ODD mine are larger, they use separate power supplies. I bought one of them for the $360 4 all about or 5 years back and it is still ongoing.

    Kind regards.

  • CD/DVD LightScribe burner

    I have a 2B09WM of 2000 HP 15.6 "and a 2000 HP 416DX laptop 15.6 im trying to find out if theres a HP Lightscribe CD/DVD drive that will be adapted to the thesis of laptops models?  If yes that maybe on the drive model number?

    Hello chulai6566.  I understand you're wondering if your laptop has a Lightscribe drive option.

    I took a shot of the laptop Service and Maintenance Guide , and the optical drive (page 40) section says that there is a DVD-RW/CD-RW Lightscribe drive with a part number 646126-001.

    You should be able to order that part through HP parts Surfer.

    Have a great day.

    on-screen MP11.  He plays (automatically) the intro (ONLY) from the DVD music (as when you put it in a DVD player, forward to press PLAY) MP11 shows all of the content and all the files on the DVD and SEEMS ready to play, but pressing on PLAY don't either not anything.

    2 , what exactly happens when you try to burn the CD? You get the error message?

    Not nothing... He's here

    3. How do you try to burn CDs?

    MediaPlayer, selection of a track list, made a list of titles, and then click BURN... nothing happens

    "Question: media in the CD-RW/DVD drive is not readable" CLICKED top DIFFICULTY... and after computer "worked" on this subject awhile, he says STATUS: fixed.  St ill did not.   MP9 introduced the format of the DVD player but don't seem to read anything other then showing a list:

    Title2

    Title 3 etc., but could not do anything with this list.

    He appeared a box asking if I wanted to update my MP9... sure why not so I shut everything down and uninstalled 9 and installed Media player 11.

    Go BACK to # 1. now once again.  This is where I am.  MP11 shows all DVD data, the chart "the Album/DVD cover, all"titles"on the DVD, AND play the track audio 'intro' DVD but will not actually READ the DVD. "

    So far it's PROGRESS.  We are at a point where it SEEMS at least that we are ready to PLAY and MP can SEE all the info on the DVD.

  • Can I rip from a DVD and burn it to a DVD with WMP 11?

    I have movies at home I want to rip from a DVD and burn another DVD. Is that possible with WMP 11 or do I have to buy software for the specific task? The DVD I have is DVD + R, I want to burn to a DVD-R format so it will play on my DVD player.

    =====================================
    Windows Media Player will not rip a DVD but there is no

    Homemade (copy unprotected) DVD is easy...
    Simply insert the DVD in your DVD player... to... Start /.
    Computer... right click on the DVD drive icon and
    Choose explores... you should see the directory of the DVD.

    File 'VIDEO_TS' Now... Copy/Paste or drag/drop...the
    from the DVD in a new folder (renamed to)
    the DVD corresponding) on your hard drive and what's.

    If you have VLC Media Player on your system (for example)
    you could click with the right button on the VIDEO_TS folder and choose...
    "Play with VLC Media Player" and the video will play.

    These files can be several gigabytes that copy makes
    some time... have patience.

    Now... If you want to duplicate the DVD... What follows
    Freeware can create an ISO Image of the DVD and
    Then you can burn the ISO Image on as many copies
    that you wish.

  • DVD Maker burn only video widescreen 4:3, regardless of the report parameter l / h

    I use DVD Maker and you have imported a widescreen in avi format video.  No matter if I put the image 4:3 or 16:9 format DVD, it burns video part 4:3 anyway. The menu displays in 16:9, the preview plays in a 16:9 frame, menu burn in 16:9, but the video is burned in an image full screen complete with very large and skinny people!
    The other parameters are NTSC and start in the menu.
    What happened with a newer version of the beta version of Windows7 and now between professional.

    Windows DVD Maker has a design aspect ration fault.

    I created a DVD using opinion with 16 x 9 aspect ratio. When played on a DVD player connected to a 16 x 9 TV, it looks fine, but when played on a 4 x 3 TV, the video is wrinkled rather than Letterbox or cropped. Surprisingly, the DVD seems to substitute for TV or DVD settings. I created several DVDs more with different parameters and the results are always the same - test on 4 DVD players and two televisions. Then, I created a DVD with 16 x 9 and 4 x 3 content content. Not only were the 16 x 9 crushed on the set of 4 x 3, but video 4 x 3 has been extended across the 16 x 9! Yet once, either the TVs juggle parameters during the process of creating or viewing options or four DVD players has changed the results. In all cases content was stretched or crushed to fill the screen. The DVD created using Roxio Creator 9 (or similar software) with identical clips do NOT have this problem. The DVD resulting does NOT substitute devices that they are played on. I do not think that any new software should be less functional that many softwares for years, do you think?

    Calogero suggestion that 'when deciding what image format to choose, consider the aspect ratio for the monitor or TV on which your slide show will be ironed' is absurd. Firstly, we are not talking slideshow - we could care less if the slides in the menu are the correct proportions - we don't talk video. Then, suppose you want to create a DVD to give to dozens or hundreds of friends and family for the holidays. You're supposed to find the type of TV each recipient? This is ridiculous. If I have 4 x 3 TV sets now but plan to get the big screen 6 months from now, you want me to redo each disc? Have you already bought or rented a DVD you have to tell them if you had a TV big screen, so they could decide what DVD to give you? Most importantly, determine what type of TV will be used does not change the fact that no amount of fiddling with the settings have an impact on this issue. The only choice you are using other software or use only 4 x 3 to be played on a 4 x 3 TV clips and clips of 16 x 9 to be played on a large tv screen.

    I have to press F1 to continue, to go back to my device manager and click with the right button on my storage looking for new hardware devices.  It detects the new Pioneer device and takes about 10-15 min. to install drivers... don't know why it took so long but good.  However, when I go to 'My Computer', or my new Pioneer drive or my standard CD-ROM player appear on the screen.

    At this point, I try to do a reboot to see if that will pull up the readers once again, but my computer is still frozen on the "shut down" screen for about 1/2 hour.  Then, I don't have a very wide power and back on but now the Device Manager does not recognize ONE of my DVD or CD ROM drives and still does not appear on "My Computer".

    I reinstalled my Sony and which still works fine, but I really need the ability to burn DVDs on this new device.  Can someone help me?

  • Re: Toshiba & DVD Lightscribe media

    * TOSHIBA & DVD LIGHTSCRIBE MEDIA *.
    I heard that Toshiba does not introduce DVD Lightscribe software (to customize the cd/DVD virgins) as OEM software. Is there a way I could get it on my series of satellite P without having to buy an external hard drive?

    As much as I know for the Lightscribe feature, you need the special optical disk drives that support this option. It is unclear to me Toshiba ratings support this, so I'm afraid you need some external m solution (external drive).

    I finally got my DVD burner to work, but now the drive will not read the DVDs I burned, which, of course, defies the point of having a dvd burner in the first place... When I insert my dvd recently burned, "working" light lights and stays on. Same thing happens no matter how many times I take it out and put plug back in, restart my computer, etc... any ideas anyone?

    Hello

    @Magnus:
    Sometimes, CDs and burned DVD cannot be read with no closing sessions of engraving. You should check this option.
    In addition, this burning program did you use?
    I use Nero. Form is the program better combustion and I never had a problem.
    What you need to do is to test several DVDs. not all media work on the disc.

    Locate your CD drive integrated in the device list manager.

    Do a right click on it, it should appear a window with "Disable"... 'Enable '.

    Click Activate.

    It is a possibility, the other is...

    The fact that you are also using EXTERNAL units could be the 'reason' why one integrated disabled to start with.

    The USB in the BIOS setting must be wrong... to do this.

    In addition, the "HALT ON...» ' Command, in the BIOS, will not. (It is possible that the "Halt" command is... ON "ALL ERRORS").

    Assign to this... "WITHOUT ERRORS".

    This should cure the problem of USB connection (for external use) disable your "built-in" CD player
