• 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.

  Hello

  I presume that you have tired to watch movies HD DVD to the HD DVD drive preinstalled own Toshiba.
  Am I wrong? Please don t be confused because as far as I know two different readers of DVD from Toshiba are installed on this laptop.
  A DVD player that handles only the regular DVD (V1.10.06) and the second DVD player who takes in charge the HD DVD (V4.30.07).

  If you want to play HD DVD, you must use the DVD HD Toshiba player!

• 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.

  Success... Thanks a lot for the downloads.  I currently have 8 CyberlinkPower2Go for burning, but the best new version I guess.  Maybe he would correct music hushed on broadcast television.  Thanks again... you saved a LOT of frustration!

• Burned DVD will not play on a DVD player

  I downloaded a 22 minute video I want to burn to a DVD in my DVD player.  I tried on the DVD-R and DVD + R.  They burn the disk but will not play on the DVD player.  The error message indicates that the reading is not available on this disc.  I used the windows search support to problem solve on my own, but have had no success.  I made sure that I am selecting the option of CD/DVD drive to use the ISO image format.  I entered my option and I have no filters.  I have the video on NTSC format since I'm Pennsylvania / U.S..  I have not tried burning on slow or average speed because it burns the DVD without problem it just will not playback on the DVD player.  What do you recommend as my next plan of action for troubleshooting.

  I guess that the video is not DVD compatible Mpeg2.  According to the DVD player, some will play other formats, too.  If there is no program for video on the computer, try Windows Movie Maker (free) to see if the video will too be converted to standard DVD Mpeg2.

• USB sync will not play on the sync in car package

  I have CDs that I ripped to my playlists and then synchronized on a usb key.  Will play on the computer, but not in the vehicle.  What I am doing wrong that the USB sync will not play in the vehicle?

  CIA

  Hello

  1. have you ripped music files and synchronize directly on USB?

  2. What is the file format of the files that you ripped?

  3. are you able to play the songs in a different computer?

  This problem normally occurs when the radio does not support a specific file format. If you are able to play the songs to another computer, I you suggest to use third party software to convert .mp3 files and then check with the question.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hope this information helps. Response with status so that we can help you.

• I have a Toshiba Satellite C655-S5305 application, running Windows 7. I made a few cds of music there are chandeliers and that they will not play on this computer. They do not play on my computer of husbands, good girls.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C655-S5305 application, running Windows 7.  I made a few cds of music there are chandeliers and that they will not play on this computer.  They do not play on my computer of husbands, good girls.  I think that they are MP3.  My cd drive is appearing and showing to work properly, but just read it as a blank CD.  To go with this... I am a legal transcriptionist and use a program called FTR player.  I downloaded some MP3 audio files and who won't play in my FTR player either, so I think it has something to do with. MP3 files, in the form of .wav files play in my FTR player very well.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance, Jodi

  Red flag.  CCcleaner.  If you used to "clean" your registry database, which can cause problems.  CCcleaner is also a good program, but registry cleaners do not help and remove what they think are "unused" entries in the registry that can cause problems later.

  Try to download the Real Player and see if that corrects your problem, but if it is not, you may need to restore your computer to the factory settings by your user guide's instructions.

  When you got your system back as you, I invite you to buy an external hard drive, and a good backup 3rd party program. You can configure it to automatically do everything in time and frequency of your choice. External hard drives 1 TB are about $85 these days and a very good FREE backup program corresponds to the Easeus todo backup free of charge that you can download from

  http://www.todo-backup.com/products/home/free-backup-software.htm . Who can make you save a lot of time and frustration, the next time something like this happens. Sooner or later, it happens to all computers for one reason or another.

  Good luck.

• Why the clip will not play in the window of the observer?

  Hello world. It's me again. So, I just started working on a project, and the clip will not play in the window of the observer. In the timeline panel, I see that there are images to play, but the Viewer is black when I try to play. I have temporary can solve it by leaving FCPX and opening it again, but after a few minutes, the display window stops again, and it's a pain to have to do every time so I can watch a few minutes of film. Just so you guys know, do it mode multi-cam, incase that has an effect on it. Thank you very much!

  You have the options of display Angles show the value? You are in the editor of the Angle or the project timeline?
