No tuner = no S-Video capture! (Qosmio F10-101)

I just bought Qosmio F10-101, which comes without a TV tuner. I tried everything to save my VCR to the computer's S-video input, but this is not possible. I have already installed the registry patch and I tested several applications like WinDVD Creator video recording supplied with the machine, they do not all video input ports.

The main reason why I bought this machine, it's that I thought that the S-video input could be used for recording the video on the hard drive. But it seems that this is not the case.

So, I'm supposed to return the unit for another model? Or is there a workaround to record a S-video input to the hard drive? Please, remember that this isn't a TV tuner.

TIA

Hello Tia

Since last week, I got a new Qosmio F20. I want to do the same thing as you. At the moment I am not familiar with this, but the Qosmio forum, you can find many discussions on this topic.

Try to pick up some information.

Good bye

  • Required parameters for Qosmio F10-101

    Hi, I just bought my Qosmio F10-101 & I have two questions:

    1 - hard drive (60 GB) is a player, I need to divide it into 2 or more drives & keep back the preinstalled software (what are the exact steps?, I keep all the factory settings?).

    2. the models that include a television tuner weren't available when I bought my laptop, if I get the F10-101, is it possible to add a TV tuner? the performance will be ok or it will be affected because it is not built in from the beginning?
    Appreciate to advise me soon (especially to question 1) to activate the startup using my laptop.

    Thank you
    Amal

    You can use a program like partition magic that can partition the drive into multiple separate disks (for example C: D: etc..) It is installed in the windows operating system and he can do the job without losing existing data on your disk.

  • New Qosmio F10-101. Where is OneNote?

    Just bought a new Qosmio F10-101 in Greece with Greek Windows XP, but I can't find Microsoft OneNote installed on my machine. On the European model site 'abandoned' the specs say clearly that OneNote is provided with this model.
    So why this software is missing?

    Hi Eric,.

    My copy of OneNote has come on a CD and I had to install it myself. He was not on the OEM Windows XP installation, and it is not included on the recovery CD.

    I recommend that you check the packaging for your Qosmio original see if there is a CD somewhere.

  • Upgrade CPU on Qosmio F10-101

    Hello people,
    I tried to upgrade my Qosmio F10-101 1.7 to 1.8 GHz CPU, but the whole system runs very slowly.
    In fact, it runs up to 500 MHz and it is not possible to operate at full capacity.
    Finally, I went back to my original CPU, 1.7 Pentium chip.
    I think Toshiba is using a method to control the CPU serial number and reject any new CPU unless it is replaced by them.
    Does anyone have an idea how to make my notebook to accept the 1.8 GHz Centrino?

    Concerning
    Kypros

    Hello

    The fact is that after changing the motherboard or a unit firmware must be updated.
    Unfortunately, it is not possible to update the firmware for a common user.
    This can be done only by the Toshiba service partner.
    After this update the CPU has to work with maximum efficiency.

    I guess it's a question why the CPU works only with 500 MhZ

  • Qosmio F10-101: after change of graphics output d-video card does not work

    Hello
    I had a problem with my qosmio F10 and after service, changed the graphics card from Nvidia Geforce 5700 6600. But when I tried to switch the LCD for the TV screen, I could not use my d-video out (SCART nb exit). I could not change display properties TV format because these settings the value NTSC and shadow. You have an idea? How can I solve this problem before the service...
    Thank you

    Hello

    The G10 has installed the utility of development of Toshiba and this tool has controlled the TV out put and the PAL, NTSC settings.
    Check if it is available on your Qosmio F10 and change the settings if necessary.

    Furthermore, it would not be a bad idea to access the BIOS and check if there are any options that can move from a PAL, NTSC

  • Controller drivers/video display Qosmio F10-136

    I'm in the middle of reinstalling everything on my computer laptop Qosmio F10-136. I used the Toshiba site display drivers. However, in the video controller Device Manager shows an error, and the drivers are not installed. The graphics card is a nVidia GeForce FX go5700. Scrolling up and down pages in Internet Explorer is very slow.

    Also when I go to display settings-advanced-adapter graphics card properties is not displayed under adapter type.

    Someone knows what's the problem? I need to download the drivers to elsewhere?

    Thank you

    Ben

    Hello

    The graphics driver on the European driver Toshiba page works and can be installed correctly.
    I think you did something wrong.

    Try to reinstall the graphics driver again.

    Remove the graphics controller from the list of Device Manager and restart the laptop.
    Then try to reinstall the driver again. I recommend to install in the Device Manager.
    Choose graphics card, update driver, and then point to the downloaded graphics driver and complete the installation.

    See you soon

  • Qosmio F10-101 does not have a TV tuner

    Hello

    I bought my F10 about 2 years ago. It is actually a F10-101. I picked the local official Toshiba site (Turkey). On the web page, he said that F10 comes with a TV Tuner (such as all the Qosmios). Also I checked it on the site of toshiba - Europe.com. The local page was actually just a copy/paste of the toshiba - Europe.com

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/JSP/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?PRODUCT_ID=98310&DISC_M OD = 1 & service = EU

    2-3 days later, I bought the computer. Since I knew that the specifications, I didn't ask questions. When I got home, I realized that there was no TV Tuner on my machine, or remote control. I called the dealer that I bought, they said that none of the F10s have TV Tuners.

    I sent to the local distributor of Toshiba on the problem, why this is so. They do not even condescend to answer. The TV Tuner functionality is also excluded from the site 2-3 days later (I also sent Toshiba International, but I was told to contact your local Distributor).
    I didn't actually buy my Qosmio for its TV Tuner functionality. But this isn't what Qosmio is made for?

    I didn't have to return to the computer dealer, because it is a very good machine in addition to its multimedia capabilities. I say "was" because of some problems of motherboard, I am facing nowadays. I'm a little start to Brown it off.

    What would you do if the same thing has happened to you?

    Hello Cagri

    It is well known that you have time to 14 days for the product if you are not satisfied. I don't know how it works in your country, but here where I live I can bring it if I am not convinced. I will also say that after buying a new product each of us should check the product, and if something is not as described in the product description, we must respond as soon as possible and dealer.

    Qosmio F10 does not work for me because it's one of the first laptops Qosmio but one thing confuses me. According to the specifications of the laptop it comes with WXP Home. Am I wrong? As far as I know to use the TV tuner you need Media Center Edition.

    Sorry, but it's really not easy to be objective enough. After 2 years is now too late for all the complaints. I just hope that you still like your toy and I have a lot of fun with it.

  • Qosmio F10-101: question on a keyboard

    On my f10 cosmio 101 caps lock green won't turn on all the time, whether it is on or off, so I never know is it turned on. Also when I press right shift windows media player turns, and when the left press the letters on my screen became smaller.

    Hello m24

    AFAIK all keyboards works on the same principle. Lock shift turned permanently you can turn it off by using the SHIFT key. Press the SHIFT key and hold down the key. After that press Caps lock once, and it should be disabled. If there is a green light it shows whether or not shift caps lock is enabled.

    Please also check out Chapter 5 in operating manuals s. here, you will find a brief but very useful explanation on keyboard on Qosmio F10.

  • Qosmio G30-155: video Capture does not work using s-video in port

    Toshiba Qosmio G30-155 video capture does not work via the ports of the video (Windows Vista Ultimate x 86) victory of version 3.90 BIOS
    Video capture does not work in Windows Media Center, even if selected as ports of entry port composite or s-video in Windows Media Center settings.

    In the BIOS version 3.90 parameters via esc - F1 can only select this option: NTSC (USA), NTSC (Japan), PAL (S-video).

    It is worth noting that the laptop is supposed to be capture NTSC for composite input mode

    Someone turned to make this model of video capture for laptop, via composite video input with the new version of the BIOS (version 3.90 win)?

    Can you please explain what you want to do exactly?

    Many years ago I had this old Qosmio with TV tuner and antenna in port so I used it to transfer my old VHS format videos and burn movie DVDs.

    To this end, I didn't use Windows Media Center. Why you n t use other recording applications. I think that everyone is better than Windows Media Center.

  • Transfer VHS video to DVD with Qosmio F10

    Hello
    I really need help, I want to transfer my VHS to my Qosmio F10 videos, edit them and then burn to DVD. I have cable supplied with the machine, more I bought a Svideo cable. I have tried all the ways to connect to their place, but without success. Someone would have a go at describing the steps I must follow to do this?
    I'm not a computer expert, simple language not techno would be appreciated.

    Hi Walter,

    You are looking at a three-step process: -.

    1. connect your VHS player to your laptop (S-Video/s-Video is recommended for better quality imagery, but you'll also need to connect the audio cables from your VHS player to your Qosmio for sound.)

    2. change the captured audio and video using a proprietary software package. You may already have Windows Movie Maker installed, but you can also consider other packages of Nero, Ulead, Pinnacle, Roxio, etc.

    3 burn the project finished on a DVD.

    The whole project can be a minefield, so I recommend taking each step in turn and carefully progressing thanks to gain experience.

    Finally, don't download discouraged by the apparent conflicts between the different pieces of hardware and software. The final result will be very rewarding.

    HTH :-)
