K220 Blu-ray player locking up

I just picked up a k220 from a retailer with a bluray player built in. It runs Intervideo win dvd 8.0. When the movie starts to play the machine locks up and gives me an error message WINDVD MFC Application is not responding. I updated the intel G45/g43 drivers and when I tried to updload the windvd patch it from the site it would not load, not the correct version. Any suggestions?
I already returned one machine to the retail, still have the same problems.

Well the firmware version for this router is not available in the Linksys/Cisco website. So you can try the following:
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type 192.168.1.1 that will open up the Router setup page.
# Then Click on wireless Tab select Channel Width to 20 MHz only and Channel to 6, 9, and 11. Click Save Settings.
#Adjust the following advanced wireless settings:
~~ Lower the beacon interval from 100 to 50
~~ Lower the fragmentation threshold from 2346 to 2306
~~ Lower the RTS threshold from 2347 to 2304
If you want to use Pre-Shared key then it is equivalent to WPA shared key...

How do I use my Airport Express with a Blu-ray player?

Hello, first post, long time lurker. Have a question, hope someone can help me
I have an Airport Express V 6.3, currently I have it set to 'Join a wireless network' and its connected wirelessly through a Netgear router that is located on the 1st floor, I'm on 3rd floor by the way. I've been using it for airtunes, but I recently received a Sony Blu-ray Player and would like to connect it the airport express via ethernet cable.
What do I have to set up on the airport express to be able to give the blu-ray player internet?
I've noticed many threads here about airport extreme connected to express...so they weren't too helpful

Welcome to the discussion area, mareithree!
You'll need the 802.11"n" version of the AirPort Express to be able to "Enable ethernet clients" and connect the DVD player. Unfortunately, your older version of the Express does not allow this type of feature.

Can I connect a blue ray player/burner to my mid 2010 MacBook Pro 17"?

Yes. Here are a couple:

My Blu-Ray player has a USB input but it doesn't have an HDMI input. Can I connect my Apple TV to the Blu-Ray using an HDMI/ USB adapter? It would allow me to run the audio through my stereo. Thanks to all for your help.

If you can find such a thing. I really doubt that exists since USB is a data connector not a video connector.

That would depend on this adapter.

Can I connect my iMac's iTunes library via wi-fi to my Blu-Ray player so I can listen to the music on my computer with my home theater system?

My music library is on my iMac, located in a different room of the house than my home theater system with a decent Denon receiver and good Infinity towers. I have an iPod connector to the Denon which I can use, but the iPod has a limited library of songs, so I would like to somehow access my iMac music library and be able to play it through the home theater system. Hard wiring the components is out of the question due to length of run through several rooms of the house, no basement and cathedral ceilings. I already have my iMac and my Panasonic Blu-Ray player both connected to my wi-fi, and it seems there should be a way to connect both of them using the wi-fi. The blu-ray player is DLNA, but the Mac isn't, so that is out of the question. Is there any other way to get these components to talk to each other over wi-fi?

There is a DLNA media server called MediaLink that is designed for use with the Play Station 3. It is not advertised as working with other DLNA clients but it usually will. I use it to stream audio, video and pictures to a WDTV media player in my bedroom. Works great, even supports iTunes playlists. I believe it still has a free trial period so you can see if it works with your player.

Can i use the apple tv3 to connect a blu-ray player to the internet through the ethernet port?

I Have a blu-ray player which can access teh internet but only through a wired connection. Unfortunately, do to some renovating a can't really pass a wire from my router to the player. I was thinking of getting the express base station and hooking up an ethernet cable and getting it to connect that wy. However, for just an extra 10$ i can get teh apple tv and started to wonder if it would do the same.
Anybody know if i connect an an ethernet cable between my blu-ray player and apple tv3 if it will be able to connect to the internet?
Thanks for you help!

Your blu-ray play can't play to your AppleTV, neither using a wired connection or wi-fi.
AppleTV only support compressed format. Therefore, your AppleTV require your content to be within your iTunes library and on the supported format; http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html
There are however wireless devices on which you can plug an HDMI cable. I don't know the price of such wireless devices but you'll find them on the net.

Creating a HDTV disk playable on Blu-Ray player - possible?

I want to distribute movies created in iMovie and exported in Quicktime HD (.MOV) format by burning them onto a Blu-Ray disk suitable for viewing the video on standard Blu-Ray disk players like my LG BD270 Blu-Ray player to view them on HDTV. I purchased and setup an ASUS Blu-Ray writer, which my iMac (Mavericks OS) recognizes. I'm using Aiseesoft's Blu-Ray Ripper for Mac to convert the .MOV file to a file format suitable for viewing on a Blu-Ray disk. I've tried two file formats: 1) HD MPEG-4 Video (*.mp4) and 2) HD H.264/MPEG-4 AVC Video (*.mp4), Everything seems to function properly. However, when I try playing the Blu-Ray disks on the Blu-Ray player, i get the spinning CD symbol for a moment that turns into "DATA". There are four icons that appear. The video icon is greyed out. Most frustrating. Perhaps I'm missing a step or using the wrong format???
Any ideas?

It turns out that the Blu-Ray disks were properly written. The problem was due to the fact that the Blu-Ray player used was not capable of handling the new file formats. Playing the disks on a modern Blu-Ray player showed no problems. Thus the combination of Aiseesoft's Blu-Ray Ripper for Mac and the ASUS Blu-Ray Writer works with my iMac.

Satellite P850 - Where to get Toshiba Blu-ray player?

Hi,
I recently reformatted my p850/049 for windows 7. I tried to install the Toshiba Blu-Ray Disc player V1.0.3.196A, the file didn't work at all and when I tried to install it manually "cannot find player in your system. Installation Aborted". On the download page it is listed as a patch, but where do I find the original file? I have SP1 Windows 7 pro 64 bit, all up do date as of 24th May 2013
I found V1.0.5.110 from the US version of the Toshiba support site and this installed and does play DVD's and it tries to open a Blu-Ray but it gets stuck on blank screen and doesn't play or allow me to do anything like skip scene or go to the menu. There's no error message complaining about region or corrupt files or anything it just goes to a blank screen, with the controls available but they don't do anything. As I said dvd's work perfectly, just not blu-rays.
The player itself seems to function normally on this screen and when you try to click buttons it comes up with a circle with a line through it when you try and click buttons like a normal dvd player if you tried to skip through the copyright warnings and the time index is always a small number ie 25 seconds or so. As if it were trying to play a small segment like the copyright section or something.
I've tried a number of different Blu-ray discs and none of them work. I downloaded a trial of another Blu-ray player program and it plays Blu-rays all the same ones that don't work on the Toshiba player (so the hardware works), so i'm looking for a free one that works without leaving a watermark on the screen. It seems silly as I expected my machine to PLAY BLU-RAYS without me having to buy software.
Any help would be appreciated

> I tried to install the Toshiba Blu-Ray Disc player V1.0.3.196A, the file didn't work at all and when I tried to install it manually "cannot find player in your system. Installation Aborted"
Yes, this is a patch file and you cannot install this without having installed an full version.
But I found on the Toshiba Australian driver page the Toshiba Video Player 5.0.0.16-A
Did you try to install this application?
At the other hand I could recommend the usage of freeware software like VLC Player.
This is really great and in my opinion the best player you can get for free.

New Blu-ray player and DVD-R media... strange problem?

Hello,
So, I have a sample disc that we made last year with various clips on it. To the best of my knowledge, everything has worked just fine. Now, I have a new Sony Blu-ray player. I put our sampler in, and one of the tracks does NOT play the audio. Plays the video, no audio. Inserting the same disc into our other players and the audio plays with the video just fine. Grab another sampler from a different build/burn. Same EXACT issue, on the same exact video track there is no audio but the disc works in all other players. Now here is the real kicker- take either sampler disc and play it in the Blu-ray player, go to the track that plays the video but no audio, play it for a few seconds, then rewind and play from the beginning, and you get sound. Jump back to the chapter index and choose the clip, no sound. Rewind & play you get sound.
Anyone want to give my any ideas as to what is going on?
Mike
For what it's worth, the project was edited in FCP, Compressed using Compressor. I don't specifically know the exact settings, but I typically use VBR with an average of 6 or a CBR of 5. I always use AC3 audio. DVDSP authored the disc. I usually keep my systems up to date, but the disc was authored last January so I would have been using whatever the latest system updated in January were. And finally there are two builds of the disc. The 2nd build has DVD Rom content added to it. But either build has the same exact issue with the same exact tack.

Not Really. Try using another batch of discs. Author the project over again..maybe it will help.

Blu-Ray player won't burn a disc. Error Code "0"

Hi all, haven't made the jump to CC so we are using CS6 for everything.
I just recently installed a SSD and deleted/fresh install of the CS6 suite onto the newly wiped internal HD. Everything works perfect, except Encore.
Encore is refusing to burn to a DVD. I have been using CS6 since it went public and I have never once had this issue for a Blu-Ray or a DVD. Now, it won't even recognize that a disc is in the burner. It keeps saying to put in a DVD or a Blu-Ray DVD, hit OK etc. I do this, repeatedly, to no avail. Now I have tried creating a Blu-Ray Image which works perfectly fine. However I couldn't get that Image to burn succesfully to a blu-ray. Now it burnt without an issue, (using windows default burner which may be the issue), but when put into the blu-ray player it is just a black image with no menus or anything.
Back to Encore, It will trans-code the files without incident, it's when it goes to the burning session it will not accept any disc I put in. This is for both a Blu-Ray and a regular DVD. I keep getting Error Code "0" or simply, "insert a blu ray or dvd media disc an hit OK". Occasionally I got "Adobe Encore Failed" and that is it. Not sure what to do. I've been trying to burn since this morning.
I gave in and bought Nero 2015 just now in the hopes I can burn the blu-ray image correctly. Do I have any other options as this needs to be done today as I have to be an event tomorrow.
Thank you!
Jason

Adding to that, I am not getting the message "The Device Is Not Ready" and you can hit Retry and endless number of times with no results. Or just cancel and then it says Building Failed. Thoughts?

No More Surround Sound on Blu-ray player after Upgrade in MediaSmart

When I used the Blu-ray player in my home theatre I selected the "HDMI pass through" mode to get surround sound. I came across some new movies that would not play and after the update from HP the player would simply freeze up as soon as there was audio present. I had to go into the task manager to shut it down.
MediaSmart works fine on the laptop, but it only freezes up when I use the "HDMI pass through" setting.
I have tried "HDMI pcm" mode and that doesn't work either. The Denon receiver shows there are five channels working but I only get stereo sound out of the front left and right speakers. This would indicate that the Blu-ray player is not outputting in 5.1 surrond sound and that the laptop and the Denon receiver is working fine.
Hp supports' solution was to reinstall the old driver or try a system restore. I know a system restore isn't going to do anything. The problem is in the new software. The new software did not work on my HDX18 when it was in Vista, it didn't work when I upgraded to Windows 7 and it doesn't on my new dv8.
I tried contacting CyberLink to let them know that the upgrade is giving problems, but I think they are ignoring me.
Personally I think that either HP or Cyberlink just forgot to add the drivers for 5.1 and 7.1 surround sound.
If someone were to find a solution to this one I would be surprised. I am quite certain I covered every possibility, but you never know.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

OK, I found a solution. SORT OF. I use the laptop to watch region "B" Blu-ray movies that I buy out of England. Rather than set Media Smart to region "B" I purchased software from SlySoft.com. When the software is running it removes the region code and all that annoying copy protection. Fox is the worst, followed by Walt Disney. (Pixar Animation and Buena Vista) One specific movie that would not play on the old Media Smart software was "Ice Age 3 Dawn Of The Dinosaurs. When I tried, a red window came up prompting me to go to Cyberlink for an update. Of course after that the movie would play, but I had no surround sound in my home theatre.
So now I use the old Media Smart software and run SlySoft...no more red window...I have surround sound in my theatre through HDMI pass through.
The problem with this solution is that Slysoft costs around 114.00$ U.S. for a life time membership and free updates forever. HMMM.

Can't connect wireless blu ray player

I've been using verizon DSL for about 5 years now. I have a Versalink 327W that was provided by Verizon. I've been pretty happy with the service, experiencing only a few glitches that were easily fixed. But I haven't been pushing it hard. I have a couple of desktops both wired to the Versalink by ethernet. The versalink provides internet access to the two computers, and file and printer sharing as well.
Now I have a problem. I recently bought a Sony Blu Ray player (model BDP-BX57) with built in wireless. No matter what I do, wireless connection fails. I've ruled out SSID and WEP key problems. The Blu Ray sees the Versalink with its SSID, and can't connect even if I set the Versalink to open. For what it's worth, if I plug the blu ray into the versalink with ethernet, that works, and I can access the internet.
That solution won't work for me in use. I need wireless.
Reading various entries in this forum and other places, I see that some people need to update the firmware in their Versalink. Do I need to do this? Is it going to help? Am I just going to have to upgrade my router/modem or my DSL service later on?
Also, looking at the steps needed to update the firmware, it looks error prone to me. What's my fall back if things go wrong due to either my error or Verizon's? I don't want to be without service for a long time while Verizon gets me a new router/modem.
Thanks in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

This problem has been solved.
The solution turned out to be to upgrade the firmware inside the "Residential Gateway" (aka router/modem) provided by Verizon. The gateway is a Westell 327W of the A90 vintage. The firmware it contained didn't work for wireless connections.
After finding a Verizon site that provides firmware for downloading, and satisfying myself that this site was on the up and up, I finally ventured to download and install the new firmware. if you are interested in downloads from Verizon, start at download.verizon.net and navigate your way to the download you are loking for. There may be a link from My Verizon to this download area, but I sure couldn't find it.
The firmware is now at rev 4.04.03.00. And the gateway now supports wireless connections.
Thanks for all your responses, and a special thanks to some contributors to old discussions in dslreports where the solution was outlined.
The next problem to deal with is going to be slow speed. I'll start a new topic.

Tricks to connect my iPod Classic to a Sony Blu-ray player?

I'm trying to get my iPod Classic to play through my Sony Blu ray player. Unfortunatley, I think they're just not compatible. But there's always hope!
You guys are smart if anybody has any ideas let me hear 'em.
Here's a list of what I've tried so far, unsuccessfully; I connect my iPod to the A/V input, but it did not generate the sound that I wanted.
I connected to the Blu ray's usb port this improves the sound but I have no control over what music is played and all of the music folders and files have weird labels on them so I don't know what any of the folders or song files contain.

I had the same problem with Sony BluRay BDP-S3100 and iPod Nano (6th gen.).
I had a nice online "chat session" with Apple, and they said a couple of things.
One was that a USB connection is not the "best" connection for audio files, I thought
that was an interesting factoid. :-) The BluRay player said the "USB device" was
"not supported." It just can't "see" the iPod.
But the Apple chat tech said I should try hooking the iPad directly
to the TV via a headphone jack -- didn't have one -- BUT...my stereo system DOES
have a headphone jack, so he said to get a cable that has two male plugs -- one is
the 3.5mm headphone plug, and the other is the mini (for iPod) plug. Voila! Apple
sells that kind of cable, but I'm sure one could be found at Radio Shack etc.
I hope this helps you! I don't have a cable yet so I can't say if this solves the problem
for me or anyone else, but it's where I'm going to start.

Can I download to a Blu-ray Player

I currently have my internet set up to download to my Directv for Video on Demand and other Apps.
I have a Blu-ray player that has a USB port.
My Question :
Can I also download a movie/video to my Blu-Ray player via the USB or
Is there a way of downloading it into a flash drive and then allowing my Blu-Ray player to accept it and play it.
Do I need the Apple Tv unit and/or some other type of program ?
Obviously I would want it in either 1080p of at minimum 1080i.
I am not sure if this is the right forum section, if not would someone guide me to the right one.
Greg

the usb port on appletv is only for firmware updates
about if you can move movies from your bluray drive using it's usb port is doubtful as that would make it easy for people to pirate movies
and no the appletv can only do 720P even if the atv1 can upscale
if you can upload movies to your bluray player would likely be a question for the manufactory of your bluray players forum rather then here as you have not even stated the brand of your player

I just got the Sony BRAVIA 60" Class / 1080p / 120Hz / LED-LCD HDTV and I have a Yamaha RX-V1800. I want to buy and hook up a Blu-ray player to both. What the best way to do this? Should I use the optical audio to connect the Blu-ray to the receive and the HDMI to connect to the TV? I really want to be able to use HDMI for the audio but then I'm left with only component video for the TV. I can't filter the sound through the TV, this does not work. Does optical produce good audio?

Okay so I did try to run everything through the Yamaha receiver and the refresh rate is just to slow. I put in the DVD Salt and as soon as there was a chase scene I got lot of blurring.

You have no idea what you are doing which is why your results are not pleasing. Simply connect the equipment with HDMI cables as instructed and use only Blu-Ray discs as they are full-resolution sources. Your Blu-Ray player applies upscaling and processing to your DVD which is why it looks like crap and your receiver would do the same depending on the settings. You also need to check the settings on your player and HDTV to get them both aligned for the best picture quality.
Well I did use HDMI cables, and I also checked all of the setting on both the receiver and the TV. I did not use a Blu-Ray or player as I have not bought one yet. So are you saying the only way to not get a blur when using this set up would be to only watch Blu-Rays?? That does not make much sense. Also I would like to say I have some idea what I'm doing but obviously not as much as many people on this site, that's why I posted my question here. Thanks though for pointing out the obvious, It was very helpful of you.
