None/streaming video sound and bad quality

I recently had to reinstall Windows XP on my Toshiba laptop.  Since the reinstallation, I had no sound and the quality of streaming media for things such as Netflix and youtube is very poor.  Also on my touchpad scrolling is very choppy.  I learned by several friends that I probably need to update or reinstall the drivers for this problem, but I can't find everything related to audio or video on the Toshiba Web site.  Can anyone help?

Hi PenguinGarcia,

·         What is the model number of the laptop?

·         Windows XP came preinstalled when you bought the laptop?

·         Do you have any driver CD?

Since it is a new installation, need you the latest drivers for the computer (as suggested by your friends). Look for the drivers with your specific model on the Web from Toshiba website. You can check the sound, video drivers, network and touchpad on the Web site.

  • Stream video slowdown and going out of sync on Satellite P100 - 434 Vista

    I have a Satellite P100-434 pre-loaded with Windows Vista and WinDVD. During playback of DVD video, the video stream slows and goes badly synchronized with audio after a short period of normal play.

    The video then jumps and will be back in sync for a short time before going off again. I found references to this on a general search of the web with the only offer the solution of reloading with XP.

    I confirmed that with Windows XP Home edition, the problem does not occur, and with Vista it always happens with PowerDVD v7 good than not as pronounced. I would like suggestions as to the cause and possible solutions.

    Well, what to say seems the Vista itself or the drivers are responsible for this problem!
    As you already suggested the use of the Win XP operating system would be simpler!

    Anyway, the laptop uses the nVIDIA GeForce Go7600 FX card. Then first try to update the graphics driver and check a few improvements!
    Try to use the drivers from the site omegadrivers.net

    In addition I recommend you disable the acoustic silencer maybe it would help

  • Firefox will not play many videos, sounds and other Html5 applications but Youtube is fine.

    No matter what are the options I change (I tried everything under subject: config), videos html5 play not (format not supported, etc wrong mime type.). On youtube, html5 player works fine.

    Examples of videos does not:

    flow using the html5 and formats like gif player also like gifv to imgur.

    My OS can all play, I installed Windows Media Player.

    All my preferences in topic amovible.*: config have a default value, and I tried to change things - without success.

    I also disabled all addons/plugins, tried another profile, tried the developer version of 64-bit. I had the same problem on my old computer (I did a clean install on a totally new computer and imported via MozBackUp settings). Firefox Safe mode will not help either.

    http://detectmybrowser.com/ tells me that I can play ogg but not h264 or webm. https://www.YouTube.com/HTML5 told me that my firefox support everything that youtube needs.

    Once again, on Youtube, everything works (right click on the clip not gives me the possibility "about the HTML5 player"), elsewhere (for as far as I saw) I get "not taken in charge or false mime type error format.

    I use Firefox on Windows 10, but also known 40 the problem under Windows 7 and Firefox 3 x

    In addition, my plugin-container crashes whenever I close Firefox, I tried to clear the cache/history/cookies. No idea if this is related to the question of the html5.

    So, any ideas I can try to do html5 video finally work? It is very solutions use another browser every time for anything associated with Html5.

    Holy f * ing sh * t!

    In fact, I managed to solve the problem!

    All I had to do was to start Firefox using administrator rights. So simple, yet I didn't on this subject! Why have I never tried this before? I managed to solve a lot of problems like this but never thought about Firefox could also be linked to it.

    In any case, thanks to all who responded, as well as all those who had to read all my rants in this thread!

    Solution: Launch your Firefox with administrator rights

  • Why when I resize a picture looks less sharp and bad quality?

    I use Photoshop for CS3 and have never had this problem before. I used to create websites using WordPress for clients and have created many images of different logo with no problems. Now, however I do for muself and I have problems when I resize the images for web use.

    Here are a few examples. The first is a picture of 1400 x 1400 that I will use for a podcast. iTunes requires this size, and it looks good in my eyes. When you look at the resized picture but you will see that it is not quite as strong.

    1400 x 1400 http://d.PR/i/SrtJ

    300 x 300 http://d.PR/i/IqtI

    Logo to http://safetydad.NET

    Twitter page http://Twitter.com/thesafetydad

    I tried different things to be beautiful at any size but not to watch this only when the image is resized (especially by a CMS or Twitter) he looks like crap. I tried saved as png, jpeg, flatteing before resizing, sizing of the psd, recording to JPEG then resizing, using save for web option, but no matter what it does not look good.

    What I am doing wrong?

    When you resize it down, you will lose some sharpness because this is removal of the pixels of the image, and Photoshop is trying to figure out how to remove pixels and roll up the edges of the image... So, when some of this backstory is removed, it begins to blur. Make sure that when the downward revision to an image (image - image size) that you assign the sharper bicubic resampling. This will help reduce the blur of the deletion of pixels.

    In addition, you can go to filter - sharpen - sharpening - and work on bringing some of the sharpness it back as well.

    For your twitter logo - I would make a logo for it, because the text is difficult to read on it. Sorry - just my opinion here.

    You have tried these things already - but if not - I hope it helps

    On the other note - I think you might be hyper-critical of changes...

  • Qosmio G40-108: bad quality video/DVD playback

    I have new Qosmio G40 108 loaded with Vista Ultimate and am very disappointed with the quality of video/DVD playback compared to the older machines loaded with XP. Seems insipid depth bland, not really the color and not too strong. I tried another laptop of another manufacturer and pretty much the same thing!

    What is Vista's fault? You want to try XP but blocks me when I boot with XP disc in. I would like to run the two to see if there is a difference. (Sorry to all if this appears as message repeated hurry but bad touches earlier - starting!)

    I don't have a notebook, G40 but I use the Vista OS and I must say that the video and the quality of the DVDs is great!
    Don't know what DVD software you use, but I use the WinDVD and Windows Media Player. Two applications provide the same quality.

    > I tried another laptop of another manufacturer and pretty much the same thing!
    According to your own statement I don't think that there is something wrong with the Qosmio G40 laptop because you have the same opinion on the other non-toshiba computer.

    PS; I wonder why you start always different threads on the same topic:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//message.jspa?MessageID=107067#107067

    However, if you wish, you can test the XP if the same phenomenon occurs with other OS.

  • Hum/buffering sound every few seconds when the streaming videos online.

    I can't stream videos online (IE youtube, vimeo, etc.).  Every few seconds the sound will sound buffer. The photo is very good all the time. I have updated all drivers, tried to change the 16-bit sound, 440000Hz, update flash, silverlight etc. I also tried several browsers such as IE, firefox and chrome.

    I found a solution that is far from ideal, but if I disable the Realtek High Definition Audio, restart the computer and then reactivates the Realtek High Definition Audio, the sound buffer disappears. Unfortunately the its buffer returns the next time I start the computer.

    Does anyone have a more permanent solution than the deactivation of the sound system - reboot and then reactivating og the sound system?

  • "No audio output device is installed" no sound, video controller and game on the Device Manager section,.

    my laptop has no sound, it says no audio installed and the speaker symbol has a red cross on it. I tired all help but nothings worked, and the thing to fix auto could not fix. The Device Manager there is not even a sound, video, game controller section. Sometimes when I put into hibernation and back on I have sound and everything works fine (except when I run itunes and it stops again), but I say that I have no audio device again to restart the laptop. I have the vista updates this. All ideas

    Thank you

    I had the same problem with my Compaq F700 series laptop. His was a work day and does not not the other. I couldn't use most of the patches because they need to have the tab of sound, video, game available and also lacked this tab.

    I tried to do system restore and rolling it back, but the problem has not been resolved. What finally worked was restoring the system to a MUCH earlier date, as one month before the problem. When finished restoring the sound was still not fixed. HOWEVER, the computer OS (WINDOWS 7) necessary to re - install a bunch of updates and after the updates have been installed, everything worked. I suspect that the original problem was a bad update (I.e. has not installed correctly) and one to ride the system goes back to a time before the bad update and then re-installing the update was the fix.
    That said, if the restore option does not or cannot be I would try searching through the Add/Remove programs in the control panel to uninstall the updates of the system, and then restart the computer and let updated them, re - install.
    Good luck

  • Recommendation of tutorial and software for streaming video?

    iMac OSX Yosemite here is the problem:

    I work in a school and managing the "writing Center" in the library. I need a camera pointed at the writing Center cameras which broadcasts streaming to a Web page. Teachers will be able to click a bookmark to see the web stream, or a jpg "intervalometer" every 1 minute or so, to see if there are useful volunteers available to help their students. Or to see that he's too busy.

    I have a good camera, webcam 2 IPEVO P2V.

    I need a whole tutorial instruction newby explains an inexpensive way to do it.

    I'm pretty sure that Quicktime Pro or Gawker (open source and free) for this. I know that Adobe ($$$) such software. Because I'm a teacher, I prefer free.

    Gawker (free) is old, but I know he can do interval jpg screenshots, and I think he can do streaming video to a folder or an ftp address.

    Can you suggest a good Web page which, step by step, tell me what software I need and how to configure the page?

  • Satalite P100-188: Sound Volume low quality and no energy saving.

    Hello
    I already owned the Satalite P30 - 110 and found the sound quality very good - so I chose to upgrade to the P100-188 as a logical step but at a higher price.

    I found that the quality of the sound on the P100-188 is far below and even quieter and more slender, almost seems like a cheap passive speakers for PC but stronger together.

    Is it likely that my new laptop is down or is it a normal question on the new model?
    If this is a normal problem, I regret the purchase as its is important to me.
    The Power Saver utility that I liked in the P30 is also omitted from the P100. Can you please tell me if Toshiba intend publishes a software update to provide what I want to leave the laptop running in different operating modes depending on how I want to use it for example (downloads, etc).

    Also how to adjust the brightness of the screen? It was a feature in the TPS Toshiba Power Saver.

    Hello

    As far as I know the Toshiba Power saver is installed on many laptops Toshiba, but not on everything!
    It seems that the Satellite P100-188 was delivered without the Toshiba power saver.
    In this case, Windows power management control power options.
    You can define and save also different eating patterns in the Windows power options.

    On the sound: it's not easy to tell if it s a normal question.
    First of all I recommend to check sound and audio devices and make sure that the volume is set at a higher level.
