Hi Daniela2727,

What happens when you try to play a DVD movie? He asks to insert a disk? He asks a decoder?

You have PowerDVD, or something like that installed on your computer? If this is not the case, there is a free program called VLC Media Player I recommend (and use it myself).

  • DVD/CD RW do not read audio CDs or data or save a blank CD, but that it's ok to read and write DVDs

    My DVD/CD RW drive will not respond to CDs of any type, void, audio or data.  It whirs for a few seconds and then more nothing.  No AutoPlay (even if she is selected and in the registry as a value of 1), and if I try to click on the drive, the old hourglass stand forever and if I click on new does not, unless I have the disc, it erases then back to normal.

    The drive works fine for DVD reading and writing.  I tried to little nearly every thread relating to problems of CD, and I ran out of hair out! I uninstalled it, unplugged, repluged, rebooted, reinstalled, you name it! PC has updated the driver when I try to update.  I did all the advice regedit I saw and still nothing!  Anyone?  Please?

    Hello

    You have disk problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD burning and)
    Playback of CD and DVD). So it is not unusual for parts from 1 or 2 to not work so that others do
    correctly.

    A CD/DVD cleaner might help.

    CD have a tolerance + - and your can read/write on the edge outside these discs
    tolerances. They may be delivered, but it is generally more economical to replace the disk.

    Notes on the troubleshooting and repair of readers of compact disks and CD-ROM Drives
    http://www.repairfaq.org/repair/F_cdfaq7.html#CDFAQ_014

    ===========================================

    This troubleshooting could not help if there is alignment and/or wear issues however it
    a shot.

    Step 1: Please do all the same underneath if you did some before as is often total
    a process that solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a coward
    cable or slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Step 2: You have disc problems as the CD/DVD is actually 4 discs in 1 case (CD & DVD

    Did you follow the Troubleshooting Guide for the reader who still does not work? There are
    the entries in registry that the troubleshooter does not solve and those who "might" be the cause.

    Check with your Maker system and a device for the two possible firmware updates and

    Here are the keys that I of course are those in question - for the subkeys of the CD/DVD drive

  • As you drag the video in the Timeline, only audio files will show, not video.  Why

    Hello world!

    So I had to update to PPCC 2015 after 2014 CEP kept crashing on me while I just changed.  After having reopened the project and the program telling me to convert everything on the new 2015 PPCC, I didn't think it was a big deal.

    Well now, the old version of my project can still play all the videos, and the editing I've done, but when I try to drag in a new video to continue editing, only audio files will come in the timeline. The video will play in the window of the fine source drive, but try to get the actual image of the video in the timeline, will not be displayed.

    It makes me crazy!

    What should I do?

    It was activated at the same time. I closed my projects and rebooted my computer to see if that would do anything and now it works as usual. Thanks for your help anyway!

    Hi dagleich,

    Thanks for the information. The problem can be located on the format of your videos. I checked the model number and found out that your camera records in MiniDV. Unfortunately, video tapes and CD recording is not transferable on DVD using the House PlayMemories disks. Even with their conversion into files Mp4 Mp4s cannot be burned on DVD discs.

    I would recommend looking for a local camera shop that could help to convert your files and save them in another medium.

  • HTML5 video: video freezes regularly while only audio continues to play. Firefox 12, Linux, Centos 5 up to date.

    whenever I find a YouTube video on my linux (Centos 5.8, completely up to date) using Firefox12 machine, YouTube still offers for me html5 instead of Flash video. It would be nice, but intermittently the video stops (while the audio continues to play). I click on the (I don't know how it's called) cursor to the current position and the video will move again. until he paused next time, anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes.
    I don't know why he delivers html5 instead of flash, I get on my laptop using centos 6 and firefox12 flash video. Is there a way to configure Firefox to get flash instead? If this isn't the case, I would be grateful for help when the video component setting stopping.

  • Satellite Pro A120: DVD/CD burner does not burn audio and video files

    Hello

    I have the Satellite Pro A120 with a cd/dvd burner MAT * a uj-8415. It works very well with data Brüning, but...

    When you try to burn the MP3 files or video files on DVD or CD/r or any type of audio file, it suddenly gives me an error message telling me that the cd can no longer be used.

    I tried hole Sonic (RecordNow), through Nero 6, and also directly by dragging and dropping files, but all was in vain. This MATI * a uj-8415 machine has also made the same error while burning a DVD double layer.

    Again, the unit reads all types of CD and DVD and writes also all types of files with the exception of the audio and video.

    Can you help me please to solve this problem?

    Hello

    I know that some mp3 files and audio are protected against copying and burning on different CDs or DVDs so could not work? ¦

    Other reasons why you can't write these files to CD or DVD is simply a problem of compatibility between the STRANGE and the CD or DVD.
    According to my experience, not all CD or DVD is supported, and these compatibility issues are not really rare.

    I also have another idea.
    Have you heard of burning of problems caused by the bad registry entry? I mean the upper and lower filters...

    Please check this doc MS:

  • Terrible freezes during online play. Not only ping or delay.

    OK, so I was playing a MMORPG called Lineage 2 on my PC, when all of a sudden I got a blue screen of death. After the restarted PC I tried to type my password to user on startup and I immediately had a blue screen again. I was really worried and thought that I should try the system restore, since I have no idea what I would do if I encounter a blue screen. But he failed and there was a mistake, 0x80071a91. I scanned the PC, defragmented, ran CCleaner and searched a lot of answers via Google but so far without success.
    Ever since I got these 2 blue screens that everything is terribly late, including mainly games. I only managed to reduce delays when using internet browser or when all but any game.

    Once, I try to run any game all starts to freeze for a few seconds, every few seconds, including the game itself, the browser and everything. I'm stuck using a PC that is used to be able to run anything smoothly, including games like Crysis.I know that it has nothing to do with my internet from the same connection "freezes" occur when I try games offline as well.

    You have ANY ideas what could be the cause of the problem and how do I fix and prevent it from happening again? I have already decided to leave my PC switched off for about a day, but I don't think it will be as simple as that.

  • HDMI output on Apple TV 4 sends audio and video on TV, not just audio and video for TV to a stereo receiver

    Just hooked up our new Apple TV. Excited is no longer need to use both optical HDMI cables so that everything happens [with our compatible audio receiver HDMI.] But to hook the HDMI cable to the receiver, it sends audio and video to the TV. The audio will not play back via the receiver which is very annoying. Anyone else having this problem?

    It all depends on how your receiver and the TV are connected. the general idea that underlies the HDMI, is that he send audio/video in HD quality via the same cable...

    my system is configured - Live tv on HDMI1, HDMI2 on ATV, bluray on HDMI3 and cable optical audio output to receiver - no "entry" material I look at, the audio comes through tv receiver.

    on the other hand, my father has everything connected to the receiver via HDMI, which acts as a transition to television, but he needs to change the entry on BOTH the TV and the receiver...

    How is your audio connected TV to the receiver - it cable on which exit?
