Equium A110 - DVD picture and sound appear to choppy & scratchy

Hey guys, for the last couple of days when i insert a dvd/cd into my laptop and try to play it, the picture and sound both appear to choppy and scratchy. also when i try to copy and burn a dvd, it takes an eternity(2-3 hrs) whereas before it barely took 15 minutes.
Is there any way to correct such a problem?
And another question, I may want to try and restore the laptop to its "factory settings".
Anyone know how to do it?
Regards m1lz

> I may want to try and restore the laptop to its "factory settings". Anyone knows how to do it?
If you want to set the notebook to factory settings you have to recover the OS from the delivered Toshiba Recovery CD!!!! But be careful, the recovery procedure erases the whole HDD. Create a backup before start the installation from the recovery CD
Now something about the sound and video issue:
Maybe the ODD malfunctions, this is not impossible but improbably.
You notebook supports acoustic silencer application try to remove it.
But after recovery installation everything should run correctly... hopefully ;)

  • Equium A110-276 DVD image and sound playback problems

    A couple of months ago my Equium A110-276 stopped playing DVDs correctly.
    The sound and images on the DVDs are slow, sometimes skip and are generally out of sync.
    I downloaded the latest drivers however it didnt make any difference. If i stream a video from youtube for example the picture and sound are both fine.
    Anyone think of anything I can do to fix it?!
    Thanks

    Hi
    If the video stream looks ok then everything seems to be ok with the graphic card.
    I think either there is something wrong with the CD/DVD driver or with the software itself.
    I have investigated a little bit in this forum and found this thread regarding a very similar issue:

  • Insert picture and sound without external sources

    how can we insert pictures and sound without using external sources??
    i mean , i want to make the picture somehow embeded inside the program, not from external source,
    can any1 help?/

    I sense that what you need to do is create a Jar (java archive) file for your code and images and any other resources. Do a search on the forum for the terms -- jar pictures getresource -- and you'll get a ton of helpful threads. Also check Google. Some useful links:

  • I suffer from the problem of cutting picture and sound when Link Mac Pro with the TV via the Apple TV Is there a solution to the problem

    Have trouble cutting (the delay) picture and sound when Link Mac Book Pro with the TV via the Apple TV Is there a solution to the problem.
    (this problem is when I follow films in the sites and forums or watch the live broadcast of certain programs by using the browser Safari)
    I want a solution TV Apple made ​​meI feel disappointed

    Has anyone else encountered or solved this problem?  Same thing is happening for me with a new MacBook Pro, 13" i7 and an Echo Audiofire 4.  It's not even clear to me from searching if this is the processor idling or the firewire port hardware.  Only thing clear to me from testing is that it does have something to do with using an audio interface - I don't get this noise plugging in my external hard drive, but I still hear it if I daisy-chain the hd through my interface.  Any help or recommendations appreciated - do pc firewire ports have this issue too?

  • TV picture and sound is intermittent

    Is there a problem in 21236 now? TV picture & sound is breaking up on all channels. 

    See this sticky on pixelation issues, usuall it's very close to your home with issues like a damaged drop cable or loose F connectors.

    Check that all your coax connectors are snug at the back of the box, the TV outlet and all splitters.

  • Timing mismatch between picture and sound.

    I have been using Premier Element ver. 12 with my films recorded with my Canon EOS camera without any problems. I have now been trying to clip a film recorded with a MAC copmuter. The files have .mov extension. My problem now is, that the sound and the pictures are not sycnroniced anymore. It seems that the Pictures are 3 seconds faster per minute than the sound. So after 20 minutes the Pictures are 1 minute in front of the sound. Playing the original files with the Windows player Works fine and the timing of the sound in Premiere Elements fits with sound using the Windows player.
    Any Ideas????

    Hi' ATR
    Ref. #8
    Loading one of the problem files into Movie Maker Shows a small but constant shift between sound and Video within Movie Maker. Easy to fix. Exporting and import into Premiere Elements shows the same small but constant misallignment. That is good.
    The screenshots of the required readings is seen below
    Properties from Premiere Elements:
    I did not dare to install the MediaInfo properties readout program as I was warned about malware.
    Ref. #9
    From Movie Maker the Video bitrate is stated to be:
    15-12-14: 177232 kbps
    12-01-15: 81164   kbps
    16-02-15: 177396 kbps
    10-03-15: 280596 kbps
    From the above screen shots the audio bitrate seems to be 128 kbps
    Hope this makes sense to you.

  • Any solutions to stop picture and sound breaking u...

    After five trouble-free years and one slightly problematic week with a silver box, I have been forced to upgrade to a black box.
    Altogether an inferior product with which I am VERY disappointed. I have been sent a new remote (better not great) and have followed instructions given over the phone to get rid of problems with live and recorded TV breaking up (little squares, like when before the days of broadband when media buffered, and loss of sound).
    BUT the picture still breaks up with loss of sound. The so-called ‘home for Sports’ ruing the Tour de France for me.
    Any solutions on getting a clean programme? It happens on live and recorded TV, not i-player and I never watch demand so can’t answer for that.
    (My broadband is working fine and like I say it’s a problem unique to the new device).
    Thanks,

    You are a software build behind I suspect as the signal strength meter is only in the latest build.
    Can I suggest a factory reset?
    Factory Reset
    Switch off the Vision+ box at the mains socket
    Hold down the front panel OK and down arrow buttons
    Switch on the power to the Vision+ box
    Allow the box to start up (about 15 seconds)
    Release the OK and down arrow buttons
    The Vision+ box will then contact the servers to get a new copy of its firmware
    If this doesn't work and a rescan with the aerial out and then a reboot an a rescan with the aerial in then can you tell us if the aerial being taken out of the box and plugged into the TV does it work ok?
    If you've done all that
    Then it is either an aerial fault or a faulty box.
    So having done all that come back and let us know.
    I would add that the black box requires a stronger signal than the silver box. You may need a booster, my mother did,

  • Toshiba 56HM195 picture and sound shut off; blue light still on

    The sound and picture will randomly shut off together but the blue light on the front under the screen stays on.  The tv will not respond to the remote or the buttons on the side.  I have to unplug then plug it back in and it will work fine for several hours before doing it again.  I have tried replacing the lamp but that did not change anything.
    Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    Try leaving the TV unplugged from power over night. If the problem persists, it may require servicing.

  • Freezing and breaking up of picture and sound on Y...

    Any help greatly appreciated. When playing back recordings the picture often feezes! Have the same problem with iplayers too, but far greater as the picture breaks up and the sound also. Funnily enough the commercial ads during the programmes are fine!!! I have checked for systems updates and downloaded. All pulgs and sockets are ok and have switched everything of at the mains and back on a again. Still no joy. Gave up trying to watch a film on Netflix yesterday as it froze five times. Cannot watch catch-up on demand 5 as the pictures goes completely bonkers. Pixels all over the place and stuttering sound. Help please?

    Do you have system sounds muted?  Check the button above your volume control on the right hand side of the iPad.  If, when you change the button you see mute on your screen, you'll restore system sounds.  If you see lock orientation, you can restore system sounds by double tapping your home button to bring up the task bar (most recently used apps).  With your finger swipe those apps all the way to the right to reveal a mute icon on the left.  Touch that icon and you'll restore system sounds. 
    Let us know if that was the issue.

  • Pictures and sounds

    I have been trying to figure out how to send a picture message with music tones or voice recording. Does anyone know how to do this?

    If you want to send a picture message, select the picture then hold-press the picture, an options menu will display. I don't recall whether it's "send image" or "share image" but there is an option. Adding txt to the same msg is possible but the msg field might be overlooked... practice, you'll get it.
    {I'm having SD card issues at the moment; otherwise, I'd run this process and be able to give you step-by-step instructions. Hit me up in a few days, I should have my SD card fixed and my images reloaded [always back-up to your computer!] before 11 June 2011.}

    Then the issue is with your wireless network.
    Reboot ATV and router
    Make sure router is up to date
    Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise
