  Having a problem with my blu ray/dvd player. It will read the software CD and drives very well, but does not recognize blu ray and dvd. I tried reinstalling the driver, but that solves nothing. Tried to restore my system to a point when he did read those, but it does not, either.

  So, is this fixable or should I just buy a new drive?

  Looks like the drive will need to be replaced. Reason to be after you restored and still the same problem of reading is then laser most likely has it reache use life. Reader of OD aren't so expensive that it just make sure yours is Sata connections and must match any player you just have to remove your plate and put it on the new drive and that will resemble nothing has changed.

• DVD player does not read blu - ray

  
  

  Hello

  As far as I know, you would need diagnostic equipment to test the output of the laser.  Is your laptop still under warranty?  If this is the case, you can send it to HP for repair by contacting them here.

  If it is out of warranty, I found a replacement on HP Partsurfer drive, but it is expensive in my opinion.  Here is the link.

  HP Partsurfer

  The procedure to replace the drive is pretty easy to accomplish.

  I hope this helps.

• SlimType DVD A DS8A5SH - could not read Blu - ray discs

  Hello community...

  My machine is ASUS A43S laptop and the drive Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH CD Rom...

  Well, I tried to play the "Blu - ray movies" and I get on the Properties tab... Unknown disc...

  NOTE: DVD movies will play fine...

  So, I tried a few things...

  (1) installed the VLC Blu - ray playback (of course) software

  NOTE: VLC player works great for DVD movies, but won't play Blu - ray...

  (2) I tried to update driver... but the driver is updated... Of course, I look on the internet and my drive is the best. Microsoft 6.1.7601.17514 release date: 21/06/2006

  And nothing I did make my CD ROM drive play Bul - ray...

  Community suggestions...?

  I am inclined to believe that the Slimtype DVD A DS8A5SH just isn't a Blu - ray player...

  Thank you

  Hello Russell,

  Thanks for the reply.

  I appreciate your patience.

  It is regrettable that the CD/DVD drive cannot read Blu - ray discs.

  However, please do not hesitate to answer, if you have other problems with Windows.

  Hi, Bob:

  Have you installed the required playback blu - ray software?

  If you did, then I don't know why the drive can't read the blue ray discs.

  If you do not, please try this software.

• Pavilion dv6 - 3163cl does not play blu ray movies

  The game screen comes up and it goes into the updates and I have select or not it returns to this message.  I tried to use the touch pad to select the game, rather than the mouse, but that does not make a difference.  I couldn't play this blu - ray disc library at home, without the internet.  at the library, with the internet, I still can't play.

  also received a message that the sp50935.exe should be uninstalled.  given that I just downloaded worries me to uninstall.

  see the post about? power play DVD and not uninstall HP DVD media, but if it works I am unsure of how to bring that?

  Hello

  First of all, if you still wish to reinstall HP MediaSmart DVD, the latest installer can be downloaded from the following link.

  HP MediaSmart DVD.

  However, the issue of the update with MediaSmart DVD is well known, so I would really say that replacement by the version of HP from Cyberlinks PowerDVD 10 that seems to be a much better solution. You can install this software as follows.

  First, download the latest installer for this on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp56501-57000/sp56904.exe

  Once the download is complete, open windows control panel, open programs and features, make a right click the entry for HP MediaSmart DVD and select uninstall - when this process is complete, restart the laptop.

  When windows has completely recharged, open your download folder and double-click the installer for PowerDVD 10 start the installation.  Once this done, see if your Blu - ray disc now plays OK.

  Kind regards

• Blu - Ray on my laptop Sony SVS1512DCXB player does not recognize Blu - Ray discs.

  It reads DVD discs very well, but when I slide in a Blu - Ray disc, it says either there is no disk in the drive or it does nothing.

  You need third-party application such as VLC Player or PowerDVD from Cyberlink

• Drive BD - ROM does not recognize Blu - Ray discs

  I bought a laptop computer to Leap Motion 17j-100 HP ENVY on measurement with discs Blu - Ray player a few months in the United States. I moved to India now with this laptop.

  For the BD - ROM Bank, I set the region to region 5 (which I think also corresponds to region C Blu Ray) for the India.

  I bought a few Blu Ray discs of the India itself - Bourne Legacy, birds, how to catch a thief.

  It works great on Power DVD 12 cell phone comes pre-installed.

  Recently, I installed updates and updated the Power DVD software on the Forum from the HP Support site.

  I've updated all the drivers and there will be no more updates to install.

  The drive plays Cds/DVDs very well. But he stopped playing Blu Rays. I thught it could be solved by using a different sofwatre like Corel Win DVD so I installed a version of 30-day track, but the same problem.

  Basically, the BD - Rom drive did a few laps and then stops, say that there is no disk in drive F:

  What can I do to make the Blu - Ray discs works again

  Thank you

  Thank you MechPilot and a peer. I managed to solve the problem by buying the full version of Power DVD separately (Power DVD 14) (apparently the Win DVD trial version is not suitable for the capabilities of Blu - Ray). I guess it was a software problem after all

• Is there a solution to the problem of the Optiarc drives do not reading Blu - Ray?

  What is a registry problem or a problem with the license MicroSoft/Sony?

  Whenever I look at a Sony camera to sell now I get this pain on the time I spent trying to solve this problem.

  I may never buy another product from Sony or Japanese again.

• Qosmio F750-11v - problem reading Blu - Ray 2d - 3d conversion

  Hello.

  Can anyone help please?

  I have a laptop Qosmio F750-11v 3d and although I can use the disk drive Toshiba Blu - Ray to convert standard DVDs to play in 3d using the 2d - 3d conversion tool integrated in the drive and they work great and also appreciate and understand that I can not reading Blu - Ray DVD and convert them using the same way 2d - 3d conversion tool. May I ask why, when I bought the New Avengers 3d Blu - Ray Disc I don't see it 3D even when I activated the drive on the "3d method" tab and active the check box for "turn on 3d Blu - Ray disc mode"?

  The software of face recognition using webcam of the tracks OK.
  I get an error message when you try to play the disc 3d does not recognize that a 3d Blu - Ray player is being used or that I have a computer 3d?
  All my drivers are up to date etc.

  Why can I not see a true 3d images generated on my pc drive?

  Confused?

  Al.

  Hello

  AFAIK you can use Toshiba video player for playback of DVDs and video files.
  But NOT Blu - ray discs!
  To read disc blue ray, you need to use the WinDVD BD for Toshiba, is another tool installed on the laptop.

  But beware: ONLY Toshiba video player supports converting 2D to 3D

• HP ENVY 17 TS j078 laptop will not play blu ray dvd

  They have installed VLC MEDIA PLAYER and dvd movies now work.

  I understand this particular laptop also plays blu ray dvd, I tried several but no luck.

  Any suggestions before I waste2 hours with HP support!

  Hello:

  Yes, this model confirms that it is not a blue ray player, just an optical drive DVD - RW.

  You can see a post similar to the link below where someone had a different brand with the same drive laptop and could not play Blu - Ray discs.

  That's how my blue ray player is tagged.

• When I try to read Blu - Ray, it says "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD. The disk has been created in a way that does not support the player. »

  Original title: Blu - Ray

  My computer can read blu - ray, but when I try to play one, it says "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD. The disk has been created in a way that does not support the player. "How should I do?

  Hello
   
  The Blu - ray disc format is not supported in Windows Media Player. To play a Blu - ray Disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports playback of Blu ray and a device that can play Blu ray discs.
   
  See the article mentioned below:

• My optiarc cant BD ROM BC-5500 ATA device read blue ray discs, it can only be read normal CD-ROMs. Please help :(

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as numbers of mail or telephone!

  Ideas:

  • You have problems with programs
  • Error messages
  • Recent changes to your computer
  • What you have already tried to solve the problem

  Always do a job - even in a first time?  If so, pilots may have been replaced by a Microsoft Update and maybe that's why it doesn't work anymore.  Check the drivers and see if there is an option to restore the drivers to a previous version (which may be supplied with the system when he worked).  If so, try the restore and see if that solves the problem.  Make sure that it not only reads blu ray disks but can read and burn CDs and DVDs as it should.  If not you can always just reinstall the drivers by unscrewing the restore and restore the drivers who were there before you started this effort and again to confirm that it still works except for playing blu ray discs.

  I don't see the point in HP brake a blu ray player that has no driver available for it - I have never actually heard of what happens with a manufacturer or the device installed on the computers they sell.  Someone at HP left dropped the ball big time on this one.  Maybe HP will give you a free exchange to another blu ray player they may have available for your computer making the drivers for it and who actually works like the one bought you is not - it can't hurt to ask.  Check the options first then you can ask to him who is of at least equal quality and is the same price, or maybe a bit more expensive - they can always be arranged because of the problem, they know exists.  I guess that it's still under warranty, so that shouldn't be a problem.  It's an option-, but the decision is yours.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• The CD/DVD drive does not read discs

  Hi, I have a COMPAQ Presario CQ40 with optiarc DVD RW AD - 7561 ATA Device driver, recently the drive does not work properly. It can read and burn the disc, that I already used, but when it's a new (disc white) it does not read the disc.  It has an error message "make sure that the disc uses a format windows recognizes. If the drive is not formatted, you must format it before you use it. "the disc is the format that would recognize the system.  I tried to uninstall the drivers and reinstalled from the Device Manager, but nothing works, tried too much microsoft fixit, always the same.  Hope that there is another work around here... Thank you...

  Have you tried using other burning software?
