Type or paste the following text in the box run:

Toshiba 32TL838G - 3D TV - how to play movies from a PC or laptop computer 3D?
Dear Sir or Madam,
I bought a Toshiba 32TL838G 3D TV and want to play 3D movies. However, I can't see 3D movies. I don't own a Blu - ray player.
I tried the following things:
First of all, I downloaded a few 3D movies sample 3dtv.at (http://3dtv.at/Movies/Index_en.aspx) and YouTube (for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lK5jX2VLmi8).Then I tried to play movies with the USB Port. However, when you use the USB Port to the TV (for example with a HARD drive or USB key) I can't choose the 3D TV settings. When using YouTube of Toshiba Places I can't choose 3D settings or the other.
I can only choose the 3D settings, when I use "normal TV or HDMI input." However, I do not have a 3D channel, and I can't watch 3D movies during playback of my laptop.
What should I do to watch movies in 3D from my laptop? I tried to watch movies with vlc player and 3D TV settings. I tried the software of stereoscopic player on my laptop. I tried my demos aside and high demos side down. I use standard film lenses.
Is it necessary to use shutter glasses?
The manual of the TV couldn t help me.
Kind regards
GoodRuthThe users of this forum are talking books and laptop accessories questions there is not a lot of people who talk about TVs. However, I try to help you.

How to play movies from my pc on NSZ - GS7
On my PC, when I open Windows Media Player, I went to the stream, and I gave permission to access NSZ - GS7 to play media from my pc.
But when I go to the NSZ - GS7, I don't know where to go to see the movies on my pc to play on my TV.
Thnks!
The feature of the media player you are trying to use is called DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance). DLNA refers to technology that provides network capacity is home to many devices to home audio and video to stream media photos, audio and video between devices. DLNA compatible devices can be connected to a network home just like a computer or smart phone. Once the connection is established, you can browse the folders selected on your media server PC straight to your TV screen and select music to listen to, or photos and videos to watch.
For audio and video content from your PC on the media player, will need you a third party application, such as Plex or aVia media player. These applications are available to download and install from the Google game store. See the link below for a list of supported file types.

How can I move using Audio time units?
I am to change a sequence of multi track and the audio is slightly out of sync. I changed the rule to take into account the Audio time units, but if I try to drag the clip AV manually or using nudges it will only move by a minimum of 1 full frame. Is there a setting I can change to get moving instead of the Audio time unit? Change preferences > Trim did not work, either.
You must move the video and audio. Video will only pass in frames.
A boost in Audio Units is 1/48000 seconds.
On boost in a regular schedule is a picture.

Satellite Pro A300D - cannot play movies on a Toshiba DVD player
Hi guys,.
When I play movies in Toshiba DVD player I get the following error message: "unable to output the video to an external device. Please check the external output setting after the end of the application. TEMPRO, I installed and tried to install all updates - some of them were for different hardware so wouldn't install.
I get a similar problem in Windows Media Player "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD player and the video card protection decoder. Try to install a driver available for your video card. VLC player works fine. The drive otherwise normally functioning.
It's the same problem, as described in this thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=201029&tstart=0, but all the answers are a similar problem with HD DVD on a different model (P200).
Anyone know how I can fix this problem? I'm not sure I can be bothered to go back and reinstall Vista etc...
Thank you
AlexHey Buddy,
According to the Toshiba DVD Player error message: are you trying to watch DVDs on an external monitor or TV?
In your case, I will try to reinstall the DVD playback software. This means delete the current version and then restart your computer. Then download and install the latest software from Toshiba DVD player.But to be honest: it's that everything works with VLC media player as it s very big and small media player that can play all audio and video files. Isn t it? ;)

the s:VideoDisplay uses a variable 'muted', if we want to keep the same looking for outside like this component.
public var muted: Boolean = false;

Here is the code for the component. I hope there is nothing odd about that. I have included my contact information at the top. Please send me an email me or Adobe PM if you have questions or comments about this code. Hope this helps someone. It took me a good while to tinker until I found this.
