Pavilion Desktop PC p7-1414: DVD will not play video

All of a sudden my DVD will not play on my computer.  DVD will play the data but not video.  Check Device Manager, which States that the device is functioning properly.  Insert other discs that have always played, but now they are not. Videos will play, however, on television.  No new hardware installed to cause a conflict. Checking for updates for the driver, but there are no new updates/drivers to install.

Success... Thanks a lot for the downloads.  I currently have 8 CyberlinkPower2Go for burning, but the best new version I guess.  Maybe he would correct music hushed on broadcast television.  Thanks again... you saved a LOT of frustration!

  • Why some DVDs will not play in my computer DVD player?

    I have a small collection of commercial DVD movies.  Most of them come from the place of the U.S. market, and some come from Asia... He play ALL these DVD in my Phillips DVD player that is connected to my TV.

    But only some of these DVD will play in my DVD player which is in my computer Dell Inspiron 531 with Windows 7 Ultimate edition.  This computer has a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive.

    Some of the DVDs that will play on my computer are the American market, and some of them are of the Asian market, so I don't think that this has nothing to do with why some of these DVDs will not play on my computer.

    DVDs that play fine in my Phillips DVD on my TV player that will not play on my computer don't yet seem to close at play on my computer.  The DVD that will play on my computer liquidation (you can hear the noise) in the DVD player in 20 seconds and they start playing automatically in Windows Media Player... but I welcomed all others who won't have to sit in the DVD player for several minutes each in my tests and nothing happens... There is no wind sound and all nothing is happening on the computer screen.

    This doesn't seem to be a problem with the driver software for the disk hard because some of the DVDs will play.

    None of these DVDs are buckled and all of them are clean.

    I tried two or three times test each of DVDs that won't play, the removed from drive and put them back in.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Hi Dale,

    Although I never had no problem with the DVD or the CD I burned on PC, I think you're going to probably the same thing, that I've been with this internal DVD/CD player, is not a software problem, but just the characteristics of a lower quality DVD/CD player, and it isn't necessarily the symptoms of a dying man in car , but just a stock car low quality that some computer manufacturers cut corners with.
    The drive in the computer that I was referring in this thread is a DVD/CD SAMSUNG HD161HJ SCSI disk drive. Which may or may not be identical or similar to the reader, you have problems with, but the computer on which the reader is underway is a Dell Inspiron 531.
    Through the information that I've gathered on this thread and on another forum, I came to the conclusion that it's just a cheap player who gives intermittent performance recognizing various DVD, but as I said, the drive I troubleshooting always recognize DVDs and CDs that I burned in it... It was just the DVD movie that I have problems with.
    I dug my loyal reader DVD LaCie and plugged and I had no problems with him acknowledging and play ONE of my DVDs on this machine, which proves that the problem has nothing to do with the software system or DVD player software, as in the case suggested by someone else on this thread.
    Just buy yourself a Firewire drive or USB-2 DVD decent and you're probably fine.

    More than likely that the video is a format that is not supported on your system.

    Hi Sam,

    Thanks for the reply.

    You might face this problem because of the flash drive corruption, that's why I suggest to uninstall and reinstall once and check. You can uninstall the Flash player using uninstaller from the link below.

    Flash Player Help / uninstall Flash Player | Windows

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Flash-Player/KB/uninstall-Flash-Player-Windows.html

    Once you have successfully uninstalled Flash Player you can download and install a new version of Flash Player from the link below.

  • House DVD will not play

    I made a DVD on a DVD recorder.  He plays very well on this DVD player and other DVD player.  However, it will not play on my PC (which is P6210 with Windows 7).

    Explorer Windows actually said the DVD is blank (zero points).

    Any ideas?  The DVD player manual says something "codec", but can't find anything about it on the HP support site.
