How to read a blu ray movie in family vista premium sp1, my blu ray drive is an optiarc bdrom bc5500s with a provider of firmware Rev 1.83 pc is an hp dv7-1095eo

Consult the following site who says he has a fix important firmware for your machine.  Maybe that's the answer: http://www.sony-optiarc.eu/supportservice/downloads/bluraydrivesnotebooks/bc5500s.html. (this page also includes support contact us links).  I don't know if you have to go through them or through HP, but it can't hurt to try.  If the player Blu Ray comes with your HP, you can NOT use this solution as it is does not work, but it can cause damage.  I don "t know how you have it so you have to answer this question, and then do the right thing (even if it means that you can't use the hotfix).

You can get in trouble with your device drivers.  Go to Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  Check for the blu ray devie and make sure it says that it is a blu ray devie drive (if it does not say blu ray in the description it likely somehow is not recognizing that it is a device of blu ray and pilots could be the answer). If you need to get the drivers (and you need to do at least for blu - ray device even if you installed from the disc supplied with the deivice - ago maybe more recent updates available for this device and your version of Vista and all the others you have time to do - they can help way beyond simply solve this problem) leave the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

It is not a Vista problem from your description.  It looks like a driver problem devixe, some missing software or firmware that is necessary to make the camera to recognize blu ray discs, or a problem with the devicce himself.  You have another computer, you can connect to see if you can get it to work on this computer (or you can connect directly to your TV if it is an option).  If Yes, we know devixe works and it is something on the laptop that is at the origin of the problem.  Have you confirmed that this device is compatible with your version of Vista in the http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/default.aspxVista Compatibility Center?

Another problem can be the software you use to play the movie - it cannot recognize or be able or read blu ray discs (or it can be so slow that you give before there actually loading times as I read that some may take a matter of several minutes before start).  What software you are using (name and version)?

Have you tried to contact the Helpdesk of brush head to see if they can help?  Because it's brand new, they should be happy to help you set up and work with you to resolve the problem with it being unable to recognize blu ray discs.  They met perhaps this situaton several times and have a solution easy availalble.  If the above does not work I give them a call and help you get them.  Again, I know not what provider, you must contact (but it it came with the machine, I think you deal with HP and what I read there is no solution available yet but things may have changed since that was sent)- but try both of them (one is bound to be willing and able to help you).

I hope this helps.

  • How to burn a Blu - ray export Blu - ray to hard drive?

    I have about a two-hour project that is 21 GB as a blu - ray export drive to the hard drive (I chose not to export to my burner blu - ray, thinking that it would be faster and the desire to burn it later if I wanted to). Now, I have the 21 GB exported to a file .img file, but I have no idea how burn it. Compressor does not open the file and no "burn" which does no DVDs anyway. Just to clarify, then export the project on Blu - ray, I chose HDD as my output over my blu - ray burner, who was also an option.  Any help would save me probably 6 hours or re-export and would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Paul

    If you are using El Capitan: control - click on the image file in the Finder, choose burn.

    For previous versions of OS, open with disk utility and click on the burn button.

  • How to format a blu - ray disc?

    You use Encore CS6, I'm ready to build a blu - ray disk movie, but does not yet recognize there is a blu - ray disc in the drive. I suspect that the drive must be formatted first. How do I?

    He didn't need to be formatted. There are a variety of issues that can create this.

    If you are on windows make sure you still run 'as administrator'.

    As a test, build a folder or image to see if this part is correct.
