Replace W520 Sony Optiarc AD - 7710H DVD burner with Sony Optiarc BD - 5750: Blu - ray burner?

I plan on replacing the DVD writer came with my W520 (4270CTO) with a Blu - ray burner.  Obviously not all W520s are delivered with the same discs.

Does anyone know if the flange on the W520 is identical for both above mentioned Sony Optiarc drives?  If this is not the case, what Blu - ray recorders can accept the W520 flange of the Sony Optiarc AD - 7710H, the drive from that my machine delivered?

Thank you!

I think that Exchange you caches. I did it with mine.

  • Burned DVD using Windows DVD Maker times only once on my Blu - ray player

    Original title: burned dvd

    When I do a cd burned with my windows dvd maker, dvd will play only once on my blu - ray player separated from the TV.  It works fine the first time, but the Player cannot find the disc any time after that.  I use dvd + r discs.  Is there a formatting problem, or do I need to get the dvd + rw discs.  I'm really at a loss.  Thanks for your help guys!

    Hi frapachino21,

    -The problem occurs with all CD/DVD you burn using Windows DVD Maker?

    -After playback of the disc on the Blu - ray drive, the drive is not detected on your desktop/computer laptop with no problems?

    To use certain kinds of CD or DVD discs outside of your computer, you must close the session, which is a process that prepares the disc to be read by other computers and players.

    You can try to close or finalize the CD/DVD and check if it makes a difference.

  • Remote control DVD "skip" function does not work for Blu - ray (Encore CS5) projects

    I graduated from SD to HD and I need help.

    I just finished my first project HD in CS5, he engraved on a Blu - ray disc and immediately encountered a problem: jump jump forward and backwards remote functions do not work. (I met several other problems on the road to get here, but I solved with the help of the manual and by browsing this forum ). In this project, I am doing exactly what I did in my previous SD projects (where this function works):

    1. In Encore CS5, I added "Chapter Points at intervals... ».
    2. On the timeline in the properties panel, I kept the default selection "Operations: all allowed" (which includes 'Search for chapter' in the menu 'The authorized user Operations').
    3. In the "Project Preview" window, by clicking on the "Next chapter" or "Previous chapter", the function is executed correctly.

    However, after burning the blu - ray disc and pressing the buttons "jump back" or "forward" on the remote (Panasonic DMP-BD65) Blu - ray player, the 'Operation not permitted' message. (This very remote button function works on all my SD projects).

    More background information: I use also marks chapter to the PrPro project related to Adobe Dynamic Link, chapter marker tips end Actions (Jeff The Focal Easy Guide to Adobe Encore DVD 2.0, pp. 178-180) and the Bill on the use of the 'fade to black' transition to avoid the second ~ 1 the gap between chapters in the Playlist of chapter I use to play all chapters.  This observation can be independent: in the monitor Panel, 'Step Forward' button with the Alt key does not move the CTI to the next GOP brand. The work of functions (without pressing the Alt key) 'Step Forward' or 'Step backward' (move a frame CTI)...

    At this point, I desperately need help from the Forum.

    Thank you

    -Laci.

    Still must properly set the interval even chapters after the transcoding.

    You must say to "Return to the Original" If you do not want retranscode.

    Let us know on the chapter playlist in blurary: I think you will find that they do not work. Blu - ray, you must use the method used for SD cards.

  • 3D SONY BDV e390 House Blu-ray theater system

    I have a sony bdv e390 3D House Blu-ray theater system but I do not have a remote control. How can I use?

    If it is not possible, where can I buy a remote control? Because we bought the system without remote control, I don't know how it happened.

    Hello Jon,
    Welcome to the community of Sony.

    You may be able to control some functions of the system, Home Theater Blu - ray Disc using third party remotely. However, it is necessary to contact the manufacturer of the remote control for more information about the programming of the remote control. This is because manufacturers can set different code numbers in their universal remote controls to identify the infrared (IR) signal of a Sony product. Thus, the code number used to operate a Sony product in one remote can be different from the one used by another.

    You can try playing a disc and perform functions of the player using the control buttons on the front of the BD player.

    If you are not able to operate the BD HTS using the third party remote, you can buy compatible remote control to the unit using the link below.

    Hello

    ·         What is the update message that you receive?

    ·         Do you have an error message when you try to read the Blu - ray Disc?

    ·         This problem occurs only with Blu ray discs or any of the others?

    To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.

  • Blu Ray player can not read the DVD. It can read CDs and Blu Ray discs, but not DVD.

    Recently, I lost my hard drive.  Dell sent me a new disk with the drivers that came with the computer.

    I just noticed that my Blu Ray player is no longer playing DVDs.  I don't know if the hard drive crash has nothing to do with it, or if it's a coincidence.

    Windows says I have the latest driver.

    The computer is a Dell XPS 8300.   Is the Blu Ray player: bd - re bh30n hl-dt-st.

    The player has not served almost at all.   I read that there are the eyes for the Blu Ray vs DVD, then maybe the DVD part has failed.

    I'm always suspect that miss me a piece of software or a changed value.

    Any ideas?

    For all of you, the poor souls who shared my problem on the internet, I got beyond that.   Even though all said I had the latest driver, I found someone who said that they had downloaded a newer driver form the LG site and it fixed the problem.   Well, BH30N wasn't a model # on the LG site, but I found here: http://www.firmwarehq.com/download_1703-file_BH30N-A103.zip.html Norton said it was OK, I clicked on the EXE file, he said that he had me upgrade from A101 to A103 and suggested that I reload.   Once I did, my Blu Ray player will read the DVD fine.

  • Some of the Menus Adobe Premiere element cause DVD burning failures?

    Some of the Adobe Menus cause DVD burning failures?   What should have been a project of 10 minutes for a small 4 minute video took hours as burning DVDs stopped at 4% and then gave a message of "something has prevented completion in progress DVD burning".  I could finally solve it down for the Menu template, and when an audio clip looping has been added.  The Menu was built for an audio clip loop, but when I removed it the fine burned DVD.

    Since my last post, I checked that my drivers are up to date.   Driver updates were made to the display card Intel HD 4600 Graphics and Chipset Intel 8 series/C220 family SATA AHCI Controller.

    I created a new project and changed the flow of work to remove the check mark from selection to 'Add Menu markers automatically for me'.   When the menu has been selected and displayed, only the main Menu was to confirm that I didn't remove the Menu scenes.   At this point, I finished the remaining workflow and tried to burn on DVD using the stated parameters previously.   However, it had the same failed result.

    I went then to the path of Premiere Elements menu bar: Edit > Preferences > General

    The option "use hardware acceleration (works on Intel HD Graphics 2000 and higher)" has been selected.  I unchecked this option and clicked on the OK"" button.   I then tried to burn DVD with DVD NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby preset.

    Success!   The DVD was burned and confirmed to work in older DVD player (AVCHD burning earlier disk did not work in older DVD player, but worked in a new Blu - Ray player).

    It seems that the "use hardware acceleration" option preferred default was the problem in the prevention of burning DVDs.

  • Qosmio G40 with HD - DVD burner against BlueRay

    This is my 1st post.

    I just got my G40-127, and I wonder. Didn't the community of internatiolnal blow to HD - DVD on the sidewalk and go for Blue-Ray?

    You is a way to get a Blue-Ray wrighter to my machine or has misunderstood this concept HD-DVD machines.

    Please set me straight. Any1.

    Maybe you should take a look in this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=34643

    It is very interesting and useful publication created by Jeffrey.

    The fact is that the CD/DVD drive in your G40 doesn t support only HD DVD but also to other formats. The ability of HD - DVD is only a part of this drive.
    It is fully backward compatible and supports the standard DVD - RW SuperMulti (DL) too.
    In addition, there are more than 800 movie titles available for the HD DVD format which can be played in G40.

    In any case I didn t find any information on the availability of Blue ray discs in other Toshiba laptops. Who knows what will happen in the future

  • Y580 - what is the difference between 'Blu-ray/DVD Combo' and 'Blu-ray/DVD-RW?

    Can writer "Blu-ray/DVD Combo", I want to say burn on nine DVD disc?

    The two discs are identical, they can read and write CDs and DVDs and to read (but not write) Blu - ray. They are written differently because Lenovo doing weird things like that. For example, in configurations of Y480 they are all listed as having "Bluetooth 4.0" except one which is just listed as having "Bluetooth." Sometimes, when they add new configurations to the page, they will write some of the specifications without checking existing configurations to ensure uniformity in the way they write the terminology. Include DVD double or double layer dvd too

    What should I do to play my movies on dvd Blu - ray?

    My second problem is I think I lost my magic canvas and I want it back!   so, how do I get it back?

    my computer is model: 320-1030 hp. TouchSmart.

    Hello screamgueen:

    Normally I do not answer on this forum because that HP tollaly messed up everything on their Web sites. Your computer may not always play Blue Ray Disc unless you purchased a driver Blue Ray Optipical a surcharge. As you've found Hp has a set very limmited cd / dvd codes there. An option for the last time I check update update cost $87,00 codes. For the link to update in excess open HP Media Player click Refresh. You'll see what I mean that it is an update that you must buy if you want the update. Second option is to just buy an external cd / dvd player witch is cheeper then updating all together. Not only that when you get back you don't have to buy the update again. When you perform a restore, you lose your update.

    Now Software Web for you.  Open Manager HP recovery and software selection and drivers until it clicks. Opens a list go to the bottom of the list and click on canvas magic hp HP Touchsmart 4. HP Touchsmart 4 is already in HP Touchsmart desktop computer.  I don't know how the model of your computer listed there. If you need to load it on the HP website. I will then have the rest of the information on your computer. HP Touchsmart - 320? ??? As it is a wealth of sample are: Hp Touchsmart 600-1050 windows 7 ultimate 64-bit and my lap top is HP Pavilion DV7t - 7000cto Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit.  Thank you frrw
