No Go With Samsung BluRay Player

HD DVD encoded out of DVDSP works fine sans menu with Toshiba player, but not with the Samsung BluRay player.
I don't know if a h.264 encode would work with the Samsung.
Anybody else

There are unfortunately TWO blue laser formats--blu-ray and HD-DVD. The laser pit created is different in size between the two. DVDSP is capable of creating HD-DVD content, but there are no HD-DVD burners, and probably won't be until end of this year or into 2007.
There are blu-ray burners, but DVDSP does not currently support authoring content for that format. Therefore, there isn't a way for you to get from a to z.
You can currently create a straight forward video play only (and mpeg2 codec only) HD-DVD title, burn it to standard red laser media (not an officially supported format) and get it to play on the new Toshiba HD-DVD player. It will not play on a Blu-Ray player, because it's a rival format for one; and two, it's not compiled in a way that the player is set up to read it. It would be like putting a DVD-Audio disc into a standard dvd player--it won't be able to read it.
By the time the format war is 'over', we'll be on to the next one (format, and probably 'war' over that).

IMovie DVD Cannot be read by Bluray Player

How to resolve a problem with getting a DVD (with a correct DVD type) to play on a Samsung Bluray player that has IMovie files burned to it? The problem is not the DVD type. Could it be the settings for burning the DVD?

My Macbook does not have iDVD app. There is a "Share" option in iMovie that allows you to export it to QuickTime as an mp4 (mpeg) file. From there I used a free DVD burn app (iburn) that I downloaded, that did not offer any menu options other than to burn the video to DVD. The DVD will play the video on the Macbook, but not my Samsung Bluray player. So, my friend told me to convert the files to .mov, because Samsung does not recognize the other file types (based on their website specs). I did that, but, it still didn't play on my bluray player. It did however, play on my friends 2 players -- one of which happens to be a bluray player. We then thought it might be the DVD type and tried every DVD type that my bluray manual says are ok. Even though, my bluray manual says DVD+RW cannot play, it will play a slideshow that I created in iPhoto! So, now I am wondering if the issue is still the file type OR perhaps, I need to use a DVD burner that will allow me to select specific options that might make a difference. If the burner options don't matter, why then do DVD burners that are NOT free have options from which to choose? Perhaps, there is something within those options that could help the situation. I don't know. I am frustrated and at a complete loss at this point. Any thoughts??

Gateway 7500 not allowing connection for bluray player

I recently installed a new westell gateway 7500 to provide an additional ethernet port for my samsung bluray player.
Got a green light, full internet connection for my pc but no go for the bluray player. The status shows as connected but i am unable to access the net.
Have checked and rechecked the configuration of the blue ray player, samsung says that the modem is blocking access
The firewall is off. Have rebooted EVERYTHING several times.
Verizon tech support is useless, I have called at least six times over the past two weeks. I have been told that they are not trained on this equipment and that my only recourse is to purchase premium tech support.
HELP!!!!!!!

Accidentally un-installed winDVD for Bluray player

In an attempt to fix a non-existent problem with my bluray player on my satellite, I uninstalled program not realizing that you have to pay for it. The WinDVD program came installed on my computer out of the box. My question is how do I retrieve this program? If I perform a system recovery to out of the box condition off the hard drive, will this program return. I tried system recovery from a prior date but that did not work. I did perform a back-up on dvd's but when i tried that it appears that maybe there is something wrong with the back-up as no matter what disc I install it continues to say please insert disc #1. If anyone has any insight on this I would greatly appreciate it.

Using iPod Touch with Bluray Player

I have an LG Bluray player with a built in iPod dock. I recently loaded some movies on my iPod and would love to watch them on my tv. I can bring them up when docked, and the sound works just not the video. Does anyone know the appropriate way to connect the Bluray to the TV for video? Do I need to buy an extra cord or do I just need to rearrange the cords I have now? This is new to me, so any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

I've never heard of such a thing what model blu-ray player is it

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; says you can use a PC or player to play music; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; Samsung says you can use a PC or player to play music using the USB port; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod? Or is there some ap?

Skip the DVD player use an HDMI connection to your system.
Use this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3a&fs =s%3Dalpha
or for just Audio use the 3.5 MM jack.

Connecting Wireless Samsung BluRay Disc to Airport Express Network

I am trying to connect my wireless capable Samsung BuRay Disc Player to my Airport Express Network. The Samsung keeps telling me to check my IP Address, DNS Server, Gateway etc. I have tried to set it up using the auto option and using the manual option. Neither is working. How do I check that my IP address, etc. is correct for connection??

Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
I looked at a manual for a Samsung Bluray Disc player. They seem to have left out an important capability: the ability to choose a wireless network and supply its password.
You may be able to use the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) capability, although that is said to be tricky between Apple and non-Apple equipment. Use AirPort Utility to put your AirPort Express into "manual setup" mode. Invoke the menu option Base Station -> Add Wireless Clients. Then follow the player's instructions for "PBC (WPS)". Use the AirPort Utility option "First attempt". The AirPort Express' status light will turn blue while it waits for a connection from the player.
I have no direct experience with this. All the above information came from the electronic book "Take Control of Your 802.11n AirPort Network" (http://www.takecontrolbooks.com/airport-n).
I have no relationship with Take Control Books other than that of a customer.

Access a NetFlix account with Samsung TV, Samsung home theatre system w/netgear wireless router

I just want to know what is required to wirelessly access a NetFlix account using my Samsung TV & Samsung home (DVD) theatre system with a Netgear wireless router.

Like previous poster mentioned, for the Netflix app itself, either use built in NetApp on your tv or get it via Bluray player that has that NetApp .As for connectivity, you'll need to either get an Access Point or the proprietary Wireless LAN Adapter from Samsung. I've got both and I would recommend the AP for multiple port capablity ( more than one Ethernet jack ).

Samsung bluray BD-C6500 WEP vs WPA

well, having a quick look at the archives, I see many people have wrestled with this particular bluray player.
Here's an interesting wrinkle...
Mine had been working flawlessly for months.
In a way it still is.
But all of a sudden I can't get it to connect to my [old model] airport extreme anymore with WEP security. It only works with WPA. So, hurray it works, but now I have two old imacs in my house that I can't get connected to the network cuz they're WEP only.
The imacs aside...
ANY IDEA why this bluray player should suddenly not work with WEP security, but work just fine with either open (no security) or WPA???

OK, I was able to resolve the issue myself. I tried attaching the Samsung Q1 to ethernet port #1 and installed LELA and selected "Go Wireless". It ran and failed, so I tried setting the mode from G-only (Linksys support suggestion) to Mixed again. Tried the same drill, and connect wizard (Go Wireless) still failed. OK, so now I just started digging around in the wireless configuration setting in the Admin web manager. I looked at all the setting and then I looked at the 'Wireless MAC Filtering' tab and saw a single entry. Guessing that might be the addy of the Q1 I removed it (set back to all 0's). After saving and then trying to connect the Q1 again using the ethernet port it worked.
Now how or why the device ever got flagged in the Wireless MAC filter is a complete mystery, maybe one of the WiFi heavy hitters from the Linksys support team might venture to guess but I am suprised that a MAC would get flagged by the router shortly after joining as a Wireless client? There must be some config rules as to what activity causes a MAC to get added to the filter list? Anyone care to guess what may have caused this?

My DVD plays on my Mac and new BluRay player, but not on my TV

I burned a DVD with three mp4 movies. The movies play fine in QuickTime, and the DVD plays without a problem on my Mac. It also plays correctly on a newer BluRay player. However, when I try to play the DVD on an older DVD player (about 3 years old), I have problems. The DVD starts OK, and I can navigate the menu choices. However, I find that after about a minute, the player simply freezes, and I can't play or change anything. I tried burning a new DVD with a different format, but the same thing happened. I think the problem might just be that my DVD player is too old, but I wondered if there is a setting in iDVD to be compatible with older players. Any help would be appreciated!

I tried burning a new DVD with a different format
I'm not sure you mean because ALL video DVDs are in multiplexed MPG-2 format.
I suspect your set-top DVD player doesn't 'like' writable' media (it used to be fairly common). You might try using a DVD cleaning disc in case there is any dust over the player optical system.

Iphone not compatible with Samsung LCD TV

Hi, I have an Iphone4 and a Samsung 6000 series LCD TV. I've tried tv out through an Iphone dock to the tvs AV input .... ie the three phonos into a single jack av lead. The iphone says playing to tv but the tv says "no device found". I rang Samsung and they say that the iphone is totally incompatible with Samsung tvs and will not play even through a different device. Does anyone know different please ?
I was thinking of getting a Zepellin, but seems this will have the same issue !
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers

I read the user manual for the series 6000 TV and it should work with either component or composite from the iphone4...
I dont see details on the dock you are using, but if it has a video out on the dock itself chances are it is old... apple changed over to the universal dock and the video is embedded in the 30 pin
The component and composite format is a video standard that apple has nothing to do with every digital TV i have tested it on works fine (Sanyo, Dynex, Viewsonic).
I good way to check for sure:
1. try connected another video source to the TV (DVD player, camcorder etc)
2. try connected your iphone4 video to another TV
But if it is an old dock, that is most likely the problem, the only video cables that should work are the 30 pin to component OR the 30 pin to composite
good luck

My HP G70-120EM Laptop with a blueray player will not recognise blueray discs.

my HP G70-120EM Laptop with a blueray player will not recognise blueray discs. Any idea what software update I need?

I also have this problem on an Envy 17 laptop with a HP DVDBD TS-TB23L drive that shows up as a BD-ROM. It will play music and read data discs but not play BLURAY or DVD discs. It is very disheartening to finid such a lack of support for any problems on HP machines and will make me question ever buy an HP device. They seem to produce them at such a rate that they never bother when things go wrong as there is another being produced in the next five minutes. At first I thought this was a problem with the drive but now I suspect it is a software problem they are not bothering to resolve.

Slideshow consisting of programmed image sequences using a BluRay player?

I posted this is iPhoto, and the only response suggested I try Keynote. So here goes.
My partner has just moved from slides to digital (using my camera). She has often been asked to show her slides, and now that she has digital photos, it's up to me to make sure she can present them using a HD digital projector driven from a Bluray player. No problem there, except I'd like to take advantage of digital techniques to brighten up the shows, but don't want to go as far as preprogramming them totally. The shows will remain under manual control (press button – next image; press button - next image) while she talks about the images, or simply presents them and let the images themselves do the talking. I hope to add a bit extra, and infuse some of the images with digital magic.
I want to set up a series of images that will be shown in sequence, with a 2-5 second dissolve between images. Those images (all 1920 x 1080) may be pure stills, or there may be some movement (pans, zooms) already programmed, or they may be HD Quicktime movies. However, these "images" will dissolve to the next image only when a button is pressed -- and this could be at any time-point while the image is being displayed. If a particular image reaches its endpoint (finished a pan, for example), the image just sits there waiting for the button to be pressed. For example, a show might go like this:
Image 1 - Still. (Press button for dissolve to next image)
Image 2 - Still with preset zoom-in. (Press button for dissolve to next image, even if zoom not finished)
Image 3 - Still with pan. (Press button for dissolve to next image, even if pan not finished)
Image 4 - Short Quicktime movie. (Press button…)
Image 5 - Still. (Press button…)
Basically, the show will be a sequence of images -- still or in motion -- but the next in sequence comes up only when a button is pressed.
A further complication: I don't trust computers to do a live show. I would rather use a dedicated player, like a Bluray player, to feed the info direct to the projector. Whatever software I use, it has to be able to export the show either as one large file, or a series of files, that I can put onto a disk and be playable by a BluRay player. The file type required will depend on the make and model of the BluRay player used, but I hoping it will be Quicktime H.264 format.
Two questions:
Q1: Is Keynote the software for me, or should I be looking for something else?
Q2: Will I be able to use a BluRay player, or will a laptop be necessary?

Thanks for the reply, Kelly. Am I correct in saying that the methods suggested in your reply require a computer, running either QT or Keynote, to drive the digital projector? Whereas I'd really prefer to use a standalone BluRay player.
Thinking about this a bit more, what I want is to play back a series of DVD-style "chapters" (stills, stills with pans, and video) but in 1920 x 1080 format, and whenever I press "forward" the output jumps to the next chapter and cross-dissolves while doing so. I might have to look into BluRay to see if cross-dissolve (at any time-point) from one chapter to the next is a part of the BluRay specification, or can be authored-in somehow.
Finally, what capabilities does Keynote have that a video-editing program like Final Cut would not have? This slide-show thing is really a precursor to generating HD audio-visuals, and I assume that if Final Cut can be used to generate, from raw footage, a Hollywood-type movie from woe to go, that it would encompass all that Keynote could do. So, if I had Final Cut, would Keynote be of any use to me?

Hi,
Yes you can add a Blu-ray player to your PC. I recommend that you consider an external player so that you and move and connect it to other PCs.

Streaming video from PS4/XBox1/Bluray player to iPad

I was trying to figure out a way how to watch a video that's currently playing on a console or a bluray player and have the video also show up on my ipad. Is this even possible without an AppleTV?

I have an original iPad and Apple TV 2G. I would like to play movies from my iPad, via Apple TV, on my TV. When I start a movie on the iPad, and select Apple TV from the drop-down on the iPad, I get audio from my TV but no video. What is the correct setting on Apple TV to get video?
What app are you using and what AirPlay icon is available? Basically, it is the app and how it is programmed that determines whether or not you can AirPlay both audio and video or just audio to your TV2 device. For instance, the Videos app with let you AirPlay both audio and video content but Netflix, Air Video, and HBO GO apps will only let you AirPlay the audio portion of your content. This also holds true for web site multimedia content. Depending on how the site is programmed, a few will allow the AirPlay of both audio and video while most currently only all audio. If only a "speaker" icon is available, only audio can be AirPlayed. If a TV icon is available, then both audio and video can be AirPlayed.
