Qosmio G20-139: Using notebook screen to play on the Xbox360

Hi I have a query about the monitor in function with the G20-139,
I have an xbox 360 and want to know if there is a way of using the notebooks screen to play on the 360 either in High-Def or composite mode by using the monitor in function. With the notebook came a composite in cable at one end and a sort of 3.5 mm headphone jack at the other.
I have read the instruction manual regarding the matter and it doesn't work.
Any Help would be appreciated Thanks

Hi
The monitor-in port which you can connect with the composite cable can be used for displaying video from your digital camcorder, video game or video recorder on the internal LCD. It can be used as line-in port to enable the connection of stereo device for audio input.
In my opinion you need additionally this cable to connect the Xbox to the Qosmio with the delivered composite-in cable.

Then to should start the Qosmio with the Monitor-in button which starts the Qosmio player.

When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted.. help?

Firefox 3.6.8 and 3.5 (I downgraded to see if that would solve the issue)
Windows 7
Intel Core i5
Flash Player: WIN 10,1,53,64
When using Firefox certain videos play but the image is green and distorted. The image turns into lines and sometimes it half of the screen of the video. Examples are streaming MLB.tv video and some vimeo videos. The odd thing is that it isn’t all Vimeo videos. Is this a flash issue?
The issue does not happen with Internet Explorer which leads me to believe this is an issue with Firefox. I downgraded to 3.5 and the issue still persists.

Qosmio G20-139 [UK] Freezing DIGITAL TV

Hello Toshiba,
Have you solved the problem with Freezing Digital Pictures in the UK?
It is driving me crazy!!!
Is it a Toshiba Hybrid DVB-T CARD Problem or a Media Centre one?
And when will Qosmio Player be able to show DIGITAL transmissions, because analoug ones are on the way out here in the UK.
I need answer.
Here's hoping !!!!
cheers

I've had an update from Toshiba:
"We a currently aware that some users with Qosmio G20/F20 notebook computers are experiencing signal dropping off whilst using the internal DVB-T digital tuner. We have collated data in respect of these users and the issue is currently being worked on by the support team. Customers who receive signal from transmitters in the horizontal polarisation format are currently experiencing these issues. Given your location "CR0" you receive your signal from the Crystal Palace transmitter which broadcasts in this format.
Therefore please be assured that a resolution is being worked towards and I will keep you updated accordingly. "
Fingers crossed that they can sort the problem out with an updated driver, rather than a hardware change !

Using dual screens cannot play sound on either screen

I have an HP Envy TS m6 sleekbook.
I use 2 screens for work. If I want to play audio on either screen, it doesn't play anything. I'm not sure whats going on or what settings I need to tinker with or change.
Any help would be great

Hi brokerbizwash,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are using two monitors, but not getting any audio on either one when connected to your HP Envy m6 Sleekbook. I will try my best to help you with this issue. Although you have two monitors the audio should be working from your Sleekbook. Has the audio been working and now has stopped.
Here is a document for No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8) that explains how to use the Troubleshooting tool to check your audio.
I hope this helps, please let me know how it goes.
Thank you and have a nice day!

My notebook screen is rotated to the left

I was using my notebook with a friend one day and she leaned on it and cause whole screen to rotated to the side. Even the mouse pad is broken, when i sroll right it goes up and when i scoll up it goes right. Is there a way i can fix the problem at home or do i need to take it to a place where it can be looked at?

Hello Hpnetbookviolet,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand your screen has been rotated on your notebook. I'm not sure if I fully understand the issue. Was the screen physically broken or is the image rotated 90 degrees on the screen?
If the image is only rotated you need to right click on your desktop, choose screen resolution, and see if the orientation layout has been changed to portrait (flipped). If it has, change it back to landscape.
Let me know if this resolves your issue!

HT203671 What if I use a screen protector together with the keyboard top case?

Does a screen protector keep the screen from being damaged by a keyboard top case?
According to some saying, the screen could be damaged by any accessory between the keyboard and screen because there is a coating on the screen. Then anything between the keyboard and screen would hurt the coating the leave a scratch on the screen. So if I put a protector onto the screen, does it protect the coating from being hurt? Or does the back-adhesive protector itself hurt the coating (because it is adhesive)?

So I'm sure you're aware of this:
My Retina Display has stain damage, HELP!!!
So if you're aware of that then you know there is a total controversy about this problem.
"Does a screen protector keep the screen from being damaged by a keyboard top case?"
Some people there swear by them and some people say "anything between the keyboard and screen would hurt the coating"
So I would say "absolutely maybe!"
Sorry to be like that but we have so little information about this problem.
"does the back-adhesive protector itself hurt the coating (because it is adhesive)?"
I would say to avoid anything that has an adhesive on it. Some people have said that they cover their keyboard with a microfiber cloth but again I would say "this is purely anecdotal hearsay not based on science or actual testing."
I feel this problem is caused by outgassing of the keys or plastic in the computer.
If we knew more about the nature of the coating then maybe we'd have a course of action. I'd research the coating and see if there was a way to protect it.
Good luck!

Qosmio G20-139 slow video playback sound ok

Hi,
I no longer seem to be able to play video files, play DVDs, or watch TV as the playback is in slow motion but sound is ok except on the TV.
Have tried to uninstall Graphics driver but it won't let me saying something to the effect of unable to uninstall as required to boot.
Also looking into uninstalling /reinstalling Video driver but can't find what it is. Is it the same as the Graphics driver (NVIDIA Go Geforce 6600)?
This all started (i think) when i tried to use a netgear router insatllation CD but stopped it half way even though it said not to... Then whole system went incredibly slow and crashed a lot for a while (even Word, Excel and Powerpoint) but think some updates have sorted that out.. but it still doesn't seem to be able to handle too much going on at once like before... plus some site heavily using javascript have also gone ridiculously slow.
Besides using product restore CD as not to hand as moved to diff country... Any suggestions please????
OS: Window XP MCE
Regards,
Angela

Hi
> Also looking into uninstalling /reinstalling Video driver but can't find what it is. Is it the same as the Graphics driver (NVIDIA Go Geforce 6600)?
The display driver and the graphic driver is the same ;) some people call it display driver and some people say graphic driver
Im not quite sure why you are not able to watch movie files properly but possibly you would need some kind of codex.
The codec can be downloaded from different pages and many packages contains different codex.
Personally Im using N K-Lite Mega Codec Pack because it contains most necessary codecs.
I think its worth a try to install it!
Furthermore I recommend cleaning the OS using the CCLeaner its free tool and I had a good experience with it

Ability to both use Green Screen and then resize the clip?

Imovie 10 - the Green Screen works great. Place one clip above the other and presto. But then if you want to shrink it and put it say on the bottom corner, there in no way. It looks like you can either use the Green Screen or the PIP but not both.
This is a problem as say clip on is of a field of buffalos. Clip 2 is you in front of a green screen. There is no way to alter the size of clip 2 to fit it into the herd. Clip 2 has the subject way too big. You would have to shoot it from an equil distance from the herd for the two clips to match up. If, after you Green Screen your clip you could then PIP in and adjust the size of the video it would be perfect.
Any suggestions or am I missing something?
And no, I am not bothering herds of buffalos, ....not since the accident anyway.

Thank you for your reply. I saw this solution on another thread and tried the following. Will go into what I found.
The green screen function will only work if the movie is on top of something else. Therefore, when you save it it is saving the file with the background behind it. I tried several.
Then if you import it into your main project, it contains that background and using PIP will certainly shrink it, but again, you can't green screen it....back to step one.
This solution you reference would work if the file contained the subject against a transparent background, but it doesn't, it contains whatever you had to use under it to get the green screen to work.
Sorry if I am missing something. Two days into this and can't believe it can't be done.

Qosmio G20-102: RAID problem when installing windows xp media center

First I didn't find the raid driver for my qosmio. I tried another Qosmio G20's RAID driver but when it reachs the stage when I ask windows to format the C driver it shows me an error. It says that it finds an error in the file KR10N and it ends there.
please help me and thank you.

Hi
It seems that the Qosmio G20-102 belongs to the PQG20E series.
Searching on the Toshiba European driver page I found the RAID driver v1.03.0008 for Windows XP MCE (can be used also with XP Pro).
You will need an external USB FDD to include this driver into the OS.
But note; after the RAID driver installation you shouldnt format the HDD or create a new partition because this will delete the RAID driver from the HDD and the OS installation fails!
I hope I could help you would also appreciate a feedback ;)
Best regards

Downloading and Installing Tuner driver - Qosmio G20

Excuse my ignorance, but I have downloaded a zip folder from the Toshiba site containing files for installing a tv tuner driver(date last modified 11.24.05) for my Qosmio G20 - 139(PQG21E-01500NEN). The instructions say: '...check the contents of the zip file for installation details', but I cannot find/recognise a file that offers such instructions (there are a few I've clicked on that offer up a warning about opening files, so, being a novice in these things, I chose not to continue).
Can anyone advise me upon what file contains installation instructions, or how I should go about installing this driver?
Thanks in advance for any help given.

Hello Feliks. Thank you for your reply. To try and answer your questions:
1) I am not really sure the TV Tuner must be installed. I, in my innocence, thought it might be an update.
2) Under Device Manager entries (and thank you for telling me where to look!) there is a listing: TOSHIBA PCI DVB-T/Analogue Hybred Tuner.
I am presuming this is the entry that relates to the TV Tuner. I tried updating the driver from there (just out of interest) by entering the path to where the dowloaded driver resides, and the message I got was (paraphrasing) 'No newer version of the driver already installed found'
So, perhaps I've just been leading myself (and those who have tried to help) up the garden path.
Once again, thank you for your help.

Qosmio G20 - How do I get the tuner to work?

Hi There
I have a Toshiba G20 Qosmio. :) It has windows xp professional installed on it.
I can access the Qosmio Player (pressing the tv button) when the laptop is off. I get a snowy picture.
I donnot have a remote. I am from South Africa.
Can someone help with the following:
- Do I need a remote to tune to a psecific frequency?
- If no, how do I tune to a specific frequency without a remote?
- How do I access the user interface on the Qosmio player?
- Can the Qosmio player be accessed from Windows?
- Is there a guide on how to setup and use the Qosmio player? If yes, please provide download link.
Thanks

Hi
How do you want to watch TV?
What Qosmio player do you have?
As far as I know the Qosmio Player versions 4.3 and older do not support DVB-T signal.
Furthermore Im not quite sure if you would be able to receive the TV channels in South Africa if this Qosmio G20 has been released in European country.
The point is that the internal tuner would not receive the signals due to different PAL/NTSC settings.
Regarding the channel scanning:
Please check this thread:
http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=25430
In order to run scan you have to start the Qosmio player, press the F1 key and go into setup.
There you can do a scan. You dont need the remote control!
The other fact is that the Qosmio Player is not Windows based applications and you cannot start if from Windows. If Windows is running then you can use the MCE (Media Center) instead of Qosmio player.
