My C50D-A-138 Satellite play DVD

My laptop Toshiba C50D-A-138 play DVD. I have my laptop in May and for the first days I would let me play DVDs but since then it will not play them, it's just noise wurring as if he's trying to open but it used. I tried to download VLC and various media players to see if it would help, but it's not.

My laptop will play CD and computer games when I put the disc in but when it comes to DVD, they usually open and I don't get a notification to say that there is a disc in. When I enter my PC folder and look at the D drive and it shows the name of the DVD, but when I click it opens in a folder showing a folder of video content and sound (something like that) and if I right click on disc he D when there is a DVD in and click on "open autoplay". , he wurr of for a few seconds then stops and noting happens.

I hope someone can help.

You try to play original DVD or just some kind of course copied movies?

> When I go into my PC folder and look at the D drive and it shows the name of the DVD, but when I click it opens in a folder showing a folder of video content and sound (something like that)

This means that the ODD (optical disc) can read the disc (DVD) because the content of the DVD is available.
The question is: why the software is unable to read the game, the contents of the disc.

There are a few possible reasons for this:

(1) the disc isn t out to countries in the region that is defined in the parameters of the STRANGE. The settings can be found: (right click on region D drive properties Hardware tab properties button DVD DVD/CD). In my case the DVD region has been set to region 2. In this case, I can play DVD disc released for region 2.
_Note: _ this settings can be changed only 4 times. Then it will not be possible to switch to another area code.

(2) the software you are using is unable to read the contents of the disc. But VLC player is one of the best players available on the market (free) and it should be possible to play almost all drives using this software. However, the preinstalled DVD Toshiba playback software should also read the original DVD discs.

(3) another reason why the STRANGE can not read the disc correctly, is the dirty laser lens. In this case, it will take to clean the lens of the laser using a fluid tip and alcohol of wadding.

  • C50D-B-120 satellite and DVD player

    Hi guys wonder if you can help me. I was given this laptop for Christmas and noticed that it is not built in a dvd player. Is there anywhere I can buy one as I looked all over the internet and can find a?

    Hello

    To be honest I don't know if WEIRD can be added more.
    Some models of C50D have 9.5 MM 8 X DVD SUPERMULTI STRANGE inside, but I don't know exactly what model it could be. Maybe someone with the same machine can help you with this.

    What you can try is to contact the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country and ask for help.
    I'm pretty sure who can check in their database, which model can be used and you can also ask if you can order the plastic for her cover.

    If you do not use the optical disc drive so often good solution is external USB ODD. I also use this STRANGE with my small NB550. This is HP CMB UJ141AF USB key.

  • Satellite C50D-A-138 - can't access Internet through IE

    Hello world!

    I'm not too IT literate so need to pick up some brains!

    My partner has just bought a new laptop, Toshiba Satellite C50D-A-138.
    Everything worked very well, the kids have been on it more than him!

    A day has started up as usual, tried to access internet through Explorer with no luck.
    Wireless is on, the connection is our broadband.
    The address is *http:toshiba13.msn.com/?=TEJB*
    I tried to change on google and various other site with no luck.

    I am totally baffled by this one so any help would be welcome.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Re: Satellite 1900-303 won't play DVD

    * Hi all, *.

    I have a Satellite S1900-303 which suddenly stopped playing DVDs.

    * Operating system *: XP Pro SP3
    * RAM: * 1 GB
    * HARD DRIVE: * 320 GB
    * DVD Rom: * Standard Toshiba SD-R2212
    * Chart: * Standard ATI Mobility Radeon
    * Software *: WinDVD 8 Platinum

    The DVD - ROM drive will recognize and play / install from a CD but not a DVD.

    I did all the usual checks:

    The device driver is up to date,
    Device Manager"indicates that the DVD - ROM drive works correctly.
    Tried to play a DVD through Windows Media Player, but the CD & DVD options are 'greyed out '.

    Everyone has a similar problem, and if so, is there a solution to this problem?

    Hey mate,

    How did you check if the device driver is up to date? There is no update driver for all CD/DVD players

    Normally, if CD works fine but no DVD, it appears to be a malfunction of the equipment. Before Exchange you it, try to clean the lens using a microfibre cloth.
    In addition, you need to test if you can boot from a bootable DVD to check if it s a software issue or not.

    As I wrote already in the worst case you need a new drive :(

  • Satellite A200 plays not only will not play DVD

    I'm a first time user on this forum so Hello to everyone.

    My problem is that my Satellite A200 of (duration Vista) won't play DVD. When I try I get the following message: "Windows Media Player cannot play video DVDs. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings. Needless to say, I've played a bit with the appropriate settings and there was no change in the situation. In a response published in another forum, someone suggested that I ditch Windows Media Player in favor of something better. I thought that the alternative program, he has proposed would be free, but it wasn't. In any case, I tried to play the DVD with other programs and received the same basic message. Is not a thing of Windows Media Player, it's a thing of DVD playback. In addition, it does not matter if WMP isn't the BEST DVD player - I just want to play DVD! I wrote to one of support from Microsoft customer care and they wrote in saying that it wasn't their problem. They consider it a "question of material". I don't buy that.

    Just a bit of history - I bought the computer second hand a good friend. Now, I don't ever remember playing a DVD on the computer, which somewhat confuses things for the following reasons. Just after I bought the computer, which is running Vista, I installed MP3 player software which has expressed its disagreement with the CD/DVD drive drivers. What I think is a quite common problem. This time Microsoft representatives were happy to help me and told me to delete two lines of registry keys. That fixed the problem to a certain extent, because now the reader a) still existed and b) could read and play CDs. But when I tried to play a DVD I got the above message.

    So as I said, I never even remember reading a DVD on the drive, I don't know if the problems are related to the problem of shock of MP3 software, although it seems unlikely that they are related. Finally, the computer has been less than a year when I bought it and in all other respects, it has been very well (unbearable slowness of Vista by derogation). Unfortunately the extended warranty is now sold out so I hope this isn't a hardware problem. The fact is that, given that I've never even played a DVD on this thing, and he plays the CD without any problem (in addition, the drive can READ DVD, he can tell me all the chapters that are on a DVD and play the files that he - she won't just play movies), I don't think it's material. I think that there is a current bug.

    If someone could shed some light on this matter, I would be eternally grateful!

    Concerning

    Tom

    Hi mate

    I m using the VLC Player as well.
    I m totally happy! It s for free, it s small, don t need a lot of material resources and manages almost all file formats.
    That s awesome!

    I totally agree with you. VLC Player is more than recommended!

  • Want to play DVDs on Satellite A40-151

    My d drive plays music CD but dvd makes just one beep do I need to play dvd CDs

    I'm a bit confused of m.
    You ask: what do I need read CD DVD

    You want to play the DVD or what?
    I put t found information on Satellite A40-151, but on the A40-141
    But I guess there is no difference between the models of theses.

    However, according to the news reader supports these media:
    CD - R (RW), CD - RW (read/re-write), CD,
    DVD-ROM (read-only), DVD-R (read only), DVD - RW (read only), DVD - RAM (read-only)

    Don't forget that you put media to DVD + t use because these DVDs are not compatible
    Also if you want to watch DVDs you must use an application like WinDVD or Power DVD, etc.

    Well, it sounds your need a good codec to play DVDs. As far as I know if you want to watch DVDs with Windows Media Player you need a special codec. Have you tried to watch DVDs with other software that is of InterVideo WinDVD? Try it.

  • Tecra A2 will not play DVD NTSC

    Hi all

    I HAVE AN ANOTHER PROBLEM HOPE YOU CAN ADVISE.

    IT OF JUST LIKE ABOVE IT IS NTSC ON THE DVD IS IT WRONG REGION? IT OF WHAT HE SAYS ABOUT TV PLAYER.

    I WENT FROM NTSC, BUT OF COURSE THAT ONLY CHANGES PHOTO DON'T FORMAT SO NO JOY THERE EITHER!
    ANYWAY I CAN'T PLAY ON LAPTOP, BEEN TO MY COMPUTER AND DVD PLAYER, BUT WHEN I GO TO OPEN IT I GET NOTHING

    BEEN ON THE SITE OF DRIVERS BUT CAN'T SEE CLUES THERE EITHER.

    SEE YOU SOON.

    > IT IS JUST AS ABOVE IT IS NTSC ON THE DVD IS IT WRONG REGION? IT OF WHAT HE SAYS ABOUT TV PLAYER.

    I think that it s doesn't know is not for you you will need to change the settings in the properties of the CD/DVD player to play DVDs from other regions of the world.

    Follow these steps:
    My computer-> properties of CD/DVD (right click)-> Hardware tab-> properties of CD Player / DVD-> DVD region tab

    Here you can choose country from the DVD.

    But note! You can change these settings ONLY 4 or 5 times (don't remember exactly) then the settings would fix and could not be changed.

    In Device Manager the driver appears as comfortable, but still no joy.
    Hovering over the speaker icon in the status bar displays a message that there is no connected speaker or haedphone. I tried the pluging helmet without success.
