Watch DVDs on my Qosmio G10

Hi, when I bought my Qosmio last week, I partitioned the two hard drives with fdisk. I then installed first the Qosmio player recovery CD, then MCE XP Recovery. Having set up the computer to work with (I don't buy it for the multimedia feature) I started to experiment with multimedia functionality.

The first thing I did was try a DVD movie with the Intervideo DVD player. The sound was terrible. After that, I tried to run the DVD in the media library. It did not work at all. The error message was "impossible to open the player, please restart your computer and try again". The same message came in trying the DVD in the Qosmio player.

Can someone tell me why this is happening? I read a little about similar problems here in the forum, the player is not installed on its own partition?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello

  • Qosmio G10 - no sound on DVD playback

    I have a Qosmio G10 - 106 I just got working again - had to replace the hard drives. I have loaded Windows 7 top and almost everything works up to a point, but gradually working through each of the questions.
    I can't find the original restore disks.

    The problem I have with sound - there is no sound during playback of dvd, although it works very well on Web pages, IE YouTube and is also on audio CD.

    Any suggestions please?

    Hi Debsta_1!

    What software you use to watch DVDs?
    In my opinion, this has something to do with the software you use, because you wrote that the sound works on pages web e. g.

    I always use VLC media player to watch movies on my computer. It s compatible with most audio and video files and this tool is a freeware. I like it a lot because it of too small and never had a problem with it.

    There are many different applications of DVD player on the market and you can use each of them. The WinDVD is preinstalled on the Qosmio, but if you want, you can install a different application like PowerDVD or something like that.

  • The Qosmio G10 DVD burner replacement

    My DVD burner was unable to get out and must be replaced. It is a UJ - 831S. I bought the same one, but I got an error of CD-ROM at the beginning upward. I tried this new CD-ROM on another laptop (Toshiba Satellite 2800-300) and it worked fine. I think I have a problem with the configuration of my DVD burner (c - select, master...). Do you know if can change the firmware of my DVD writer?
    Thanks in advance,
    Alain

    Greetings Alain,

    Yes, the problem here is the ID of engraver of DVD (CSEL) UJ - 831S. You must have the carpet * a DVD burner connected to the secondary IDE Atapi port as a master flash.
    Probably your G10 is recognizing as an oucederomsurlesecondport IDE IDE slave secondary.
    Unfortunately there is no firmware to change the internal Atapi drive ID.
    You can ask Toshiba for the firmware, but I think that they will not give him to you.
    The best thing is to share the UJ - 831S for the carpet * 831B - UJ part number: P000409790 Qosmio G10 model: PQG10U-00Y00L,.
    Please confirm first if your G10 model.
    When you go to the Exchange, please ask them to first test the DVD player. Better not make mistakes, here.
    All of these discs are Panasonic (mast * one) corporation.

    Good luck

    Hello

    It seems that all 3rd party applications could have a bad influence on the reader.
    It happens with a new OS installed since the Toshiba Recovery CD?

    Additional access properties of disc (right click) and check the recording tab. The engraving option must be enabled.

  • Software DVD multi-region Qosmio G20

    Hello

    I have a Qosmio G20 (Japanese version). There a Matsu * a DVD drive in it. Unfortunately, that means that I can't use a program called AnyDVD to omit the parameters of region if I want to watch DVDs overseas.

    Does anyone know of a software like this that works well with the Qosmio?

  • Qosmio G10: Entry Composite and WinDVD creator

    I have a Qosmio G10 and WinDVD creator 2, such that comes with the machine. I am trying to copy some old VHS tapes on my HDD using WinDVD creator and the composite entry next to the socket (connected on VHS by the SCART and supplied adapter)

    WinDVDc is not see anything at all to record from, and even less the composite input (which works fine when I press the "input select" button right next to the adjustment of brightness on the machine screw). I cannot therefore see or record through my TV signal analog, which is near the top and works very well in MC. I can record using MC but trust the dvr - ms format it uses is not editable and is much too inflated.

    I also tried to use nerovision for the same purpose, but I get an error message saying "capture device is already in use...". ».

    Sorry if it's a question of intervideo, but Tosh forums seem more useful.

    Help!

    Hey Jake

    Watch download drivers (the valid section for your model and OS) for a registry patch. Take a look also at the info for it. I think this should solve your problem. This means that you will get the Composite as a data source in WinDVD Creator valid entry.

    Good luck

  • Qosmio G10-100 - failed afer replacement with larger HARD drive HARD drive

    Following a failure in a Qosmio G10-100 HARD drive, I replaced the HD 80 GB IDE current with a 160 GB IDE drive. After execution of the recovery of the DVD, new HARD drive has been formatted and installed the software (later proved by removing the drive and treat as an exterrnal disk on another PC).

    However, on booting, the machine has recognized that it was another hard drive and it wouldn't let me go beyond the screen that offers alternatives (Safe Mode, etc.), nor what would allow me access.

    Counsel gratefully received

    > After running the recovery DVD, new HARD drive has been formatted and installed the software (later proved by removing the drive and treat as an exterrnal disk on another PC).

    Sorry mate but I put t understand what you did exactly
    You have installed the Windows operating system on the new HARD drive by using the recovery disk. Right?
    Well, the recovery procedure has completed correctly? The operating system has been successfully installed?

    Did repeat the installation of the OS?
    If this is not the case, repeat!

  • Install Mandriva on Qosmio G10

    I have a Qosmio G10 with two 80 GB drives.
    A (d: drive under Win XP, NTFS formatted for the moment) is empty and intended for the installation of Mandriva.
    I have absolutely no experience with Linux.
    I downloaded the ISO on the Mandriva site file and burned to a DVD.
    I put the computer to boot from DVD - ROM first.
    If I try to install Mandriva, the DVD starts, then I get a black screen with white characters (style BACK) sometimes something, but then the Linux boot drop-outs and switches from Win XP computer once more. Everything happens very quickly, so I can't really say if a message appears on the screen.

    I read that Mandriva takes care of both the bootloader and re - format the disk for use of Linux.

    Can someone help me with this please?

    Of course, I forgot something.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Well, as far as I know if you want to install Linux on the second partition, first you must format this partition for Linux help. In this case, I suggest using the Partitions Magic 8. It's very nice program to create and managed partitions.
    But it seems that you are not a teacher of Linux. Well, I recommend using the other Linux distribution. Try to use the Knoppix. It is a system live bootable CD or DVD.
    You do not need to install something. It starts from the CD/DVD.

  • Windows 2000 on a Qosmio G10

    Hi everyone, I am considering installing Win2000 on my G10 because I think it's an OS better than XP. Does anyone have any experience with the game, or I am about to be the first to give it a try.

    In case anyone out there has done this before,
    the G10 retains its full functionality on 2000?
    What alternatives are there to the media library?
    I'll be able to watch TV in Windows?

    Hello

    I don't know if it's a good idea to install Win2000 on Qosmio G10 Toshiba provides the drivers and other software only for XP. But perhaps XP drivers also work with 2000.

    Besides why do you think that Win2000 is better than XP? In my experience, XP has the same characteristics as 2000.

    If you have tried installing, let us know.

  • Video error on Qosmio G10 since the new software

    Hello world

    I have a problem with my MCE LiveTV. When I want to watch live TV, then always comes this error:

    "Error video - files neede to display video are not installed or not working not properly." Please restart Media Center or restart the computer.
    When I follow this order, nothing changes.

    I have this problem since I installed new software on my Qosmio G10 yesterday. It's called Magix Video deLuxe 2005/2006. When I uninstalled the new software, Live TV still does not work.
    It only works when I have sett my computer back to the time where I have not yet installed Magix Video deLuxe. But then I can't use the new software.
    I also tried to reinstalled the video driver and the TV Tuner, but the error is still there.

    What can I do now? Please help me

    I would say that the software that you install is not compatible with Windows MCE. It is possible and the cause likley. If you have all updates for windows and Magix Video and it still does not work then the problem is with the software application and the no compatibility. The fact that it works before and after roll you back OS proves it.

    What are you actually trying to do with the Magix software that Windows can't do?

  • Qosmio G10 does not start

    Hello world
    I have a qosmio G10 since less than a year. It was just perfect.
    But now it won't start, but I'm unable to identify the source of the problem. (I have some experience with hardware problems, but...)

    When I push the Start button I have the ear of the DVD player running, the lights of the HD for a second and then the laptop seems to be turned on, but HARD drives do not seem to work (there is absolutely nothing on the screen, no boot screen at all). I am able to open the drive of DVD/burner to be able to exist even on the battery.

    Someone will be kind enough to share a few tips? (The FN F5/F1 key does not help)

    Thank you

    Did you hear one beep?
    This unique short beep is displayed if the device succeeded the POST (power-on-self-test) and the material is ok.
    The BIOS of the motherboard will occur always a POST during the power up, usually, this test is required to ensure its correct operation of the system and if a
    failure of the POST will identify the failure and emits a sound signal to ask the technician to take remedial action as soon as POSSIBLE.

    In your case, it s perhaps something wrong with the display. Try to connect the external monitor to the laptop.

    In addition, you can try to remove the battery and unplug the power adapter for a while.
    After several time try to connect the AC adapter again and try to start the laptop.

    If it doesn't help then I would really communicating with the Toshiba service partner in your country for the control of the laptop. Usually, technicians start some tests diagnostic and are able to locate the very fast fault.
