DVD Player Brightness fine increase doesn't work

When i increase the brightness in DVD Player 5.4, then there is no change visible while moving the slider until about one third to the right, where it immediately jumps to a too bright value. From there on the slider works as usual changing the brightness smoothly the more I move it to the right.
I usually brighten most DVDs a little, just a few percent, but this is not possible anymore with this behavior so that I have to use another player.
I trashed com.apple.DVDPlayer.plist but this doesn't help.
Any ideas?

Can you see the Flash animation (rotating red 'F') and your installed Flash Player version at http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ ?
If not, in Internet Explorer, Tools, Add-ons, can you see Shockwave Flash Object, and is it enabled?
If not, what files do you have listed in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash ?
Also, did you recently have any malware infection?

  • Rayv Player on FoxSoccer.TV doesn't work on Snow Leopard

    Since upgrading to Snow Leopard, the rayv Player for this website doesn't work. I've tried running Safari in 32-bit and also tried Firefox. At most, I get some sound, and then the browser crashes. There seems to be an issue with FlashPlayer 10.
    Does anybody have a solution for me?

    From the SL review at arstechnica...
    "The sleeping Mac dilemma
    I don't like to leave my Mac Pro turned on 24 hours a day, especially during the summer in my un-air-conditioned house. But I do want to have access to the files on my Mac when I'm elsewhere—at work, on the road, etc. It is possible to wake a sleeping Mac remotely, but doing so requires being on the same local network.
    My solution has been to leave a smaller, more power-efficient laptop on at all times on the same network as my Mac Pro. To wake my Mac Pro remotely, I ssh into the laptop, then send the magic "wake up" packet to my Mac Pro. (For this to work, the "Wake for Ethernet network administrator access" checkbox must be checked in the "Energy Saver" preference pane in System Preferences.)
    Snow Leopard provides a way to do this without leaving any of my computers running all day. When a Mac running Snow Leopard is put to sleep, it attempts to hand off ownership of its IP address to its router. (This only works with an AirPort Extreme base station from 2007 or later, or a Time Capsule from 2008 or later with the latest (7.4.2) firmware installed.) The router then listens for any attempt to connect to the IP address. When one occurs, it wakes up the original owner, hands back the IP address, and forwards traffic appropriately."

    Lightroom doesn't use the Camera Raw plug-in. All of the Camera Raw technology is part of the Lightroom program. You will either have to upgrade to Lightroom 5 or use the DNG converter to create digital negative copies that can be used with Lightroom 4.

  • Exported slideshow from Iphoto11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine but show stops 1/2way through because DVD has 2 chapters. How do I eliminate chapters?

    I exported slideshow from Iphoto 11 to IDVD 7.12 so I could burn DVD for play on DVD player. Fine, but then when playing on DVD player show stops about 12 way and starts over. Seems there are 2 chapters in show. I wan t show to play straight through until end. How do I elimiante chapters or solve problem. Thanks. Bob Low

    Try this workflow:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the  File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option.  This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    Play the disk image with DVD Player and see if you get the same start over half way thru.
    Did you create the slideshow in iPhoto in the slideshow mode?
    or were you in an album and then used the Share ➙ iDVD menu option?  What I'm trying to find out is if the slideshow in iDVD is a movie file or an iDVD slideshow with the photos from iPhoto? If it's the latter how many photos in the slideshow?

  • Another dvd player 70017 error - but the drive works fine???

    Mac Mini early 2009 - 2.0ghz, 3gb ram, 10.6.2.
    I am having a regular problem with the dvd player; I usually get the message "There was an initialization error. A valid video device could not be found for playback. Error 70017" when I start the program.
    The DVD drive works wonderfully for reading, burning, etc. If I restart the computer the dvd player usually works for watching movies...if I use Toast, disk utility, or any other dvd related program, the player will now work again. I have tried the pacifist method to reinstall and have deleted every dvd player file I can find.... The same happens when I reset pram.
    Any advice? Doesn't seem to be hardware, but I'd be glad to test that as well.
    What's going on here? This is frustrating...I can use any number of other programs to watch movies, but it sure is nice to be able to use dvd player to see which title is playing, etc...plus I just want it to work - after all, isn't that the hook?
    Thanks for any advice!

    Two things, have you run the Hardware Test on your Install DVD? Have you tried resetting the Systems Management Controller?

  • How do you get dvds to work on regular dvd players?  It works on PC dvd player just fine.

    I created a movie via Elements 13 (Using Windows 7) using video from my camcorder.  I added menus and such and then burned it to a DVD -R using Elements 13.  The dvd will play on a computer via the dvd player but it won't play
    on a regular dvd player that is hooked to my TV.  What am I missing?

    gibbyutah
    What did you create in Premiere Elements 13 on Windows 7 (assumed 64 bit) - DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc or AVCHD format on DVD disc.
    Although you can use a regular DVD burner to create the AVCHD format on DVD disc, it will not play back on a regular DVD player. You need
    a Blu-ray player or one of those multi media players whose specifications include support for AVCHD format on DVD disc.
    So, first order of things is for you to confirm which type of product you produced using Premiere Elements 13.
    Also, be aware that stop markers in Premiere Elements (any version) burn to AVCHD on DVD or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc do not
    function at playback. Those stop markers work only for DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc.
    Please let us know if any of the above targeted your issue. If not, more details please, and we will think about this some more.
    Also, please review the specification of your TV's DVD player to verify its specifications as to type of disc supported as well as the format on
    that particular disc.
    Thank you.

  • DVD Player on MacBook Pro won't work?

    My DVD player on my MacBook Pro won't work! I can hear the sound of the video, but the actual image won't appear. Plus, I can't watch things on Youtube in full screen anymore because my computer won't show it. And finally, some of my images are very pixelated. I'm getting super frustrated that nothing will work. Please help me!
    -Katie

    Many times, these types of problems can be 'fixed' by using a commerical DVD 'cleaning' kit (usually available at local electronics stores, Amazon, etc.). If 'cleaning' doesn't work, you may have a faulty SuperDrive. But I would try the cleaning method first, beofre taking your machine into an Apple Store or AASP.
    Good luck,

  • [iPhone] Calc.app builds fine, but doesn't work as intended

    Hi,
    Trying the Calc example in "Xcode Quick Tour for iPhone OS", I end up with an application that builds and launches fine in the iPhone Simulator, but that doesn't work.
    Did anyone try this example and did it work for you ?
    Here is what I observed :
    When I press a digit, the displayField's value isn't changed.
    Going in debug, I can see that the instance of the Calculator class does receive a message with the "input" selector and with the parameter "character" worth the digit that I pressed. The [_diplay appendString:character], but _display seems to keep being "nil".
    Any idea ?
    Many thanks in advance for your help,
    J.

    The Calc example worked well for me. The only bugginess I found was that if the text field is forced to reduce it's font size it never gets reset to the original size.
    Assuming you didn't touch the Calculator class files it's probably something simple. Check the IB connections, especially the connection between the displayField outlet and the UITextField. Maybe put a NSLog in the press method to check \[_calculator display\]. Of course if your Calculator class files are different from mine all bets are off, so if you don't have any luck we'll need to compare those.

  • Toshiba DVD Player on Satellite U300 does not work

    I have a new Sat U300 and the Toshiba DVD player refuses to work a, the message is that a module is missing.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    wheres the problem. Uninstall the current installed version and reinstall the Toshiba HD-DVD player. It would be the best if you look at the [Toshiba Driver Download Site|http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp] for updates of this program.
    If this does not help, backup all your files and perform a full system recovery, which should really help.
    Otherwise, give some feedback here.
    bye

  • DVD-ROM/ CD-RW drive doesn't work

    I have had my iMac for a little over 3 years now and just recently the DVD-Rom/ CD-RW drive has stopped working. I have read other users posts and discovered that this problem has been happening to them as well, but no one has listed what is causing the problem or how to fix it other than sending it back to Apple. as of right now, no disk will play on my iMac. If the problem was as simple as a dirty lens I wouldn't be posting this problem. Does anyone have a clear answer as to what is going on? My problem specifically is that whenever I insert a Cd or DVD, the disk begins spinning in the computer like it is trying to read it, and then stop, repeating the process about 3-5 times before booting the disk out of the computer. As of right now I have tried using canned air to blow out any dirt that may have settled in the computer or on the lens, I have bought a DVD-ROM cleaning kit, but the disk won't even spin to attempt and clean the lens, and I have reset the PRAM and NVRAM twice. As of right now I am at a loss. I had the understanding that Apple computer were of a higher quality than most, especially their pc counterparts, so this comes as a shock. If anyone can help me with my problem it would be greatly appreciated, although I have been through the majority of these forums and have found no answer. Thanks for any help any of you can provide.

    I purchased my flat panel iMac in June 2003. In May 2004, Apple contacted me about extending my AppleCare. The price wasn't that much, but it was still extra money and hey, my machine was working fine. I should have known better. sigh
    One month later my drive started to fail. At first, it would stop in the middle of playing a DVD and then act like it couldn't read the DVD. Ker-chunk, ker-chunk, it went. I just wanted to watch the rest of my movie. Sometimes a restart would cure the problem, but sometimes not.
    As time passed, I logged onto the discussions area here and read about replacing my drive with a new drive. I should have replaced the drive back then...but I was afraid of taking my iMac apart.
    So for the past year, I have put up with the problem. Now the drive is starting to fail more than it works. I finally broke down and ordered a Pioneer 109 drive, and will replace the drive as soon as it arrives. Wish me luck.
    My main frustration is that it's an obvious flaw in the flat-panel iMac, and I wish that Apple would address the problem. I'd also like to note that in the first year, I think I burned 3-4 DVDs and 3-4 CDs so the drive certainly couldn't have failed to overuse.
    Will I buy another Mac? Yes, but I will definitely get Applecare.
    I'll post a follow-up after doing surgery on my machine to replace the drive.
