G7-1368dx blu ray player

wodnering if only 659878-001 is the drive only blu ray that will fit in or will suit everyone?

99% of laptop optical drives are interchangeable, which includes Blu - ray as well. Measure your old drive at the thickest point, if it is 12.7 mm thick, then you're good to go.

The tray is removable and it adapts to the new disk.

DO NOT BUY SONY, THEY ALL NEED AN UPDATE OF THE FIRMWARE THAT DOES NOT EXIST.

Here are a few examples.

Panasonic and Pioneer should be OK, if you can find a HP brand, then that would be best.

Here's some video of HP out _ just in case.

Do not buy a laptop Blu - ray burner, they are not that great. If you want to burn Blu - ray, get an external USB burner.

(I checked the part number too, what a rip off!)   200 and 300 dollars! )

Also, know that you will need a software to play Blu-rays and power DVD10 is free for owners of HP, but problematic, as with all Blu - ray drives on computer. Constantly, they need updates and affect many things like anti anti-virus programs, firewalls, Windows updates, conflicts with other programs, etc.

All that this can cause the drive simply stop working or cause jerky playback _ consider a stand-alone drive.

DVD10 power is in the list, if it settles, post again.

  • I want to use a Blu Ray player in my Mac Pro

    I installed a Blu Ray player in my Mac Pro. He worked at one time, but now does not work. I removed the drive bays and reinstall the connector. Now the original superdrive is recognized. The Blu Ray player is not.

    Does show up in System Profiler?

    Are you saying that it worked before?

  • BDX3200KB 3D Blu - ray player is not compatible with some 3D movies

    I have a BDX3200 3D blu - ray player that is connect to a TV Toshiba 47VL863 3D.
    I noticed recently that a number of 3D movies do not play correctly.

    Most affected seem to be 'The Hobbit' and 'A turtles Tale', where the 3D movement flickers badly and there is a visible effect "turn the page" on the passage from one scene to the other.
    What makes the two not watchable films.

    To try to solve the problem I have downloaded the latest firmware for the TV and blu - ray player, but unfortunately the problem has not disappeared. If, however, I play the films concerned on the same TV, but using a PS3, they play perfectly, leading me to believe the BDX3200 is the source of the problem.

    I wrote to Toshiba support, but have had no response.

    Is anyone else having the same problem? Is there a fix out there I don't know?
    I would like to know what Toshiba have to say about this issue?

    Hello

    I think you can try to update the firmware and hope that this would solve the problems by playing the other Blu - ray movies.

    It seems that the latest firmware for this player BD BDX3200KB is * v25.*
    You should be able to find it here:

    1, first: can not find the VBScript script engine for script... TC3052100B.temp\preinstBDV.vbs

    Already, I deleted the old driver and isn't any restore point...

    All operations will run smoothly...

    But how to handle this situation?
    And I want that my hard drive to function...

    Thank you much in advance,

    > After download bluray driver such as recommended by the notifier of Toshiba, I have trouble to install.

    Toshiba notifier? You mean Toshiba Tempro software
    I don't know what model of laptop you have and if your laptop is equipped with a Toshiba Bluray player but I guess you get this error because your computer laptop isn't capable blu - ray player and the Blu - ray Toshiba player isn t preinstalled.

    The point why you this notification is simple: there are different laptops with different hardware configurations. But the Toshiba tempro does not recognize if your laptop needs this software. TEMPRO shows you the drivers/tools/utilities that brought to the whole laptop series and have been uploaded to the Toshiba driver page.

  • Satellite Pro P300 best exit way to get audio for blu - ray player or projector

    Would be great if someone has experience on the following points.

    I have a Satellite Pro P300 - PSPCDA 03 P00D: I would like to know the best option for high-quality audio from this unit to a blu - ray player or an optoma projector. (Or a good way to find the answer)

    The blu - ray player has hdmi (the satellite does not work) and the optoma projector has a 3.5 mm mini-plug.

    The satellite has a sound piece dolby - is it possible to get a feed for audio output dolby?

    Any thought / experience welcome.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Not sure but I think that the headphone socket supports S/PDIF
    I think you should check the user manual for more information on S/PDIF
    If his support, then you can use it to get the best audio quality

  • Satellite P850 - where to get the Toshiba Blu - ray player?

    Hello

    Recently, I reformatted my p850/049 for windows 7. I tried to install the drive Blu - Ray Toshiba V1.0.3.196A, the file did not work at all and when I tried to install it manually "can't find drive in your system. Installation interrupted. On the download page, it is listed as a patch, but where can I find the original file? I have SP1 Windows 7 pro 64-bit, all date of May 24, 2013

    I found V1.0.5.110 of the American version of the Toshiba support site and this installed and play DVDs and it tries to open a Blu - Ray player, but it gets stuck on a white screen and do not play or let me do anything like scene jump or go to the menu. There is no error message complaining about the region or corrupted files or anything it just goes to a blank screen, with controls that are available, but they do nothing. As I said dvd works perfectly, just not blu - ray.

    The drive itself seems to work normally on this screen and when you try to click the button it comes up with a circle with a line through it when you try to click on the buttons as a dvd drive normal if you tried to jump by the warnings of copyright and the index of time is always a small number that is 25 seconds or more. Like he's trying to play a small segment as the section of the copyright or something.

    I tried a number of different Blu - ray discs, and none of them work. I downloaded a trial of another program of Blu - ray player and it plays Blu - Ray still those who do not work on the Toshiba drive (for the hardware works), so I'm looking for a free one that works without a watermark on the screen. It seems silly as I hoped my machine READING BLU - RAY without me having to buy software.

    Any help would be appreciated

    > I tried to install the drive Blu - Ray Toshiba V1.0.3.196A, the file did not work at all and when I tried to install it manually "can't find drive in your system. Installation interrupted.

    Yes, it is a patch file and you can not install this without a full version installed.

    But I found on the page of the Australian driver Toshiba Toshiba Video Player 5.0.0.16 - A
    Have you tried to install this application?

    On the other hand, I could recommend the use of the freeware such as VLC Player software.
    It's really great and in my opinion the best player you can get for free.

  • Re: Satellite Pro C870 - Blue Ray player driver downloaded through Tempro

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro C870-10F Windows 7 Professional 64-bit with Tempro me a well-informed driver I could install (a Blue Ray player driver). TEMPRO should be reliable... but first of all my Panda antivirus disabled the script installation, and when I disabled the antivirus protection, I ran again the installation of this driver and that he got an error on a file missing. I was not able to proceed with the installation at all.
    someone at - it had the same problem?

    The cause would be that I installed VLC Media Player?
    Thanks for your help.

    Last days, few people have reported on this notification Tempro. According to the specifications of the laptop your laptop doesn t have Blue Ray optical disc player, so I think that this update of the driver is not important to you.

  • I'm unable to get the registration code for my Blu - Ray player

    I'm unable to get the registration code for my Blu - Ray player. I followed the instructions and all I get is the statement: device is registered. I can't register for the most part without a valid code. Please let me know how I can get the correct code. Thank you

    If you were able to enter the registration code the first time you tried to save the player before then you don't need to do it again. Just bought this drive? If so, was it a screen or mixed open-box model?

  • Multi-writer stops and Blu - ray player and stutters on the new desktop.

    New HP ENVY H8 - 1420t CTO desktop PC.  Upgrade to drive optics multi-writer blu - ray.  While playback of blu - ray movies, drive spin for a few minutes then stops, stutters and makes a mechanical sound for minute, and then continue to play.  Very annoying.  Desktop is Intel i7 quad cpu 3.5 ghz and comes with the PowerDVD blu - ray software.  HP exchanged the drive.  No help.  Software mfg Cyberlink tells me that I should update the firmware.  BUT, I can't determine what is the model of the optical drive, who made it and therefore, how to get the firmware updates!  NOTE: Cyberlink also told me it is perhaps a matter of 'performance' - how is this possible with all of the provided equipment?  The graphics card is a Nvidia GeForce GT 630.  Help!

    I had a similar problem on my HP ENVY dv6t laptop and discovered that it was caused by the BlueSoleil BlueTooth software WMI calls interrupt playback. Where there is a similar problem, take a look at my blog and see if it helps you:

  • 'No disc' error on the Toshiba BDX1200KY blu - ray player

    (Sorry, there seems to be no jury of blu ray player)

    I bought this drive blu - ray 3 months ago and a week ago I had a 'No Disc' error when I tried to play a DVD. The machine plays all my DVDs without problems before if is not a concern for the region. Now, he will not play one of my DVDs and they are all clean and intact. However, she still plays my blu ray discs without any problem. I bought a blu ray disc lenses cleaning hoping that would solve the problem, but it didn't. So, I bought a DVD lens cleaning disc but being a DVD itself, she also returned an error of 'no disc '.

    The problem is that this is my second machine in about 6 months. Exactly the same thing happened with my previous Toshiba BDX1200KY and the electronic shop guys couldn't get out and gave me a replacement so it is very likely that the fault is mine.

    These machines have distinct popsicles for Blu Ray and DVD? Can someone suggest a solution. I smoke and I often stop the machine. It is pointles continuing until I have it worked.

    Unfortunately, it's a computer / laptop Forum options so I m afraid there is not a lot of people who can provide you with solutions

    However, I put t think that this player is equipped with different laser lens it s a goal that must manage all disks

    My player couldn't handle all the disks because the goal was dirty. I unmount the drive to access the lens and managed to clean it with a cotton tip and a little alcohol.
    So it helped in my case

  • Satellite Pro L870-149 - query Toshiba Blu - Ray player

    Good afternoon.

    I bought the laptop above a month ago and have just tried playing a Bluray disc for the first time using its built-in Bluray player, but nothing plays.

    By default the autoruns drive the integrated Toshiba Blu - Ray player, which is loaded up with success. However, nothing happens when I hit play, I can't see the list of chapters and I can not load all of the menus on the disc itself.

    Disk can navigate in Windows Explorer and there is no mark on the disc itself (it's a drive new, bought at the shop), but I don't have any other disc BluRay that I can use to check if it's the disc or the drive.

    The built-in player or the player itself's restrictions on the game bought at the shop of BluRay discs?
    I should also mention that I have ensured that I have selected the correct region during the initial installation of the player.

    Thanks in advance.
