Qosmio G20 - HD video playback stucks for 2-3 seconds

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Qosmio G20 laptop installed win -7 on it and its working fine with no problem.
But when I tries to play HD videos , it is playing a little bit and then stuck for 2-3 seconds it continues and again stuck.
Can I upgrade my graphics card which is currently NVIDIA Geforce Go 6600 with 128 MB RAM.
I tried with latest NVIDIA graphics drivers but no luck.
please advice
ABHI

Hi buddy,
Graphic card upgrade is not possible. Your notebook is only designed for your current card (Geforce Go 6600) so its not possible to exchange it.
Furthermore I doubt that this issue is related to the graphic card
Some more facts would be interesting Do you play videos from CD/DVD or HDD?
Have you tried different players, for example VLC media player?
Otherwise use the Maximum Performance mode as Keany wrote. Battery Optimized mode is not enough for HD playback.

  • When workign with video, logic freezes for a few seconds then playbacks

    Dear all,
    When i am working with video in logic 9.1, the playback freezes for a few seconds and then plays smoothly. This is irritating as when u score for movies, u cant sync the sounds. I tried converting the mov file into various formats, but still no luck. Strangely, the demos given with logic(the ones with videos) plays smoothly without the freezing.. pls help ...
    thanks

    Ken,
    Yes , you were right. i researched on video formats and found, logic will only support uncompressed video formats. Like u said, i opened quicktime and exported my movie to DV coding. It works fine.. I also found out that, to have less CPU load, convert you video to "photo jpeg" coding.. Its smoother !!!1

  • Whenever i try to play a video on my iphone, it pauses literally every 2 seconds. i will hit the play button, the video will play for a few seconds and then it will pause again. what can i do to fix this?

    videos will play for a few seconds on my iphone then it pauses. i press play and it pauses again. why is it doing this? and this is for all videos: youtube vides, videos off the internet, videos ive downloaded from itunes

    I can understand this with videos you are streaming, i.e. maybe you have a slow data connection.
    Videos on your phone should not do this.  Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.

    I had this same thing happen to me.  I was using my brand new iphone 5 (texting and listening to music through the speakers) when it flashed the apple logo, stopped my music and brought me to the lock screen.

    My iPhone is getting stuck for a few seconds everytime I do something,  if i type a letter it will type it twice or a few times, if i click to close the browser it stucks there for a few seconds before closing, if i try to open some app it gets stuck there.
    I have restored it and loaded the backed up material again. But this problem doesnt seem to go away. Sometimes it is too much sometimes it is not noticeable, so what exactly could be wrong and what ALL should I do to get it fixed?  Please reply.

    Thank you. You are very kind. First I backed everything up, then restored as a new phone, and then i couldn't see the contacts, the contacts were not restored when i restored as a new phone. So in order to get the contacts I restored from the backup but then the same problem happened again.
    What I meant to saw was that the probelm disappeared when i restored as a new phone, but it reappeared when i restored from the backup. So is there a way to just somehow get the old contacts when the phone is restored as a new phone. All I need from the current phone is the contacts to be there when I retore as a new phone.
    I hope I am clear.
    Kindly help

    I did that many times, I mean I do it everytime. But it doesnt seem to help. It is strange sometimes the phone is slow and stucks for a many seconds, sometimes it is just one or two seconds. Thank you for your help though, but is there something else that you could think of?

  • Qosmio G20 : D-video pinout ?

    Hi Qosmio users, I've been trying to output D1, D2, D3, D4 resolutions on a HD-ready LCD TV with no success. I can output standard PAL through the D-out plug at the back of the Qosmio, using the provided D-to-Scart cable, but when I output 480p, 720p, 1080i,... the LCD TV is out of sync.
    I know the TV is able to receive 1080i signals, I have tested it with a HD camera video recorder (using component outputs).
    So, I have checked the D-to-Scart cable and found that it only carries a composite video signal (plus the left and right audio signals).
    Some people have suggested to buy a D-to-component cable in Japan, but I can't understand how it could work because it seems the D-out plug on the Qosmio is not the standard D4 connector as described on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D4_video_connector
    (there's no audio signals on these D4 connectors).
    So, I'm looking for the pinout of the Qosmio D-connector...
    Also, I am wondering if the Japanese D1, D2, D3, D4 analog HD standards are supported by european HD-ready TVs ?
    Thanks for any answer,
    Fabrice

    First of all, what cable did you use for this test?
    The D-video to scart cable provided with euro Qosmios is absolutely unable to do this, so it's no big surprise it didn't work. the Component signal is just not transmitted via Scart input on european TVs.
    But that's not all..
    > So, I have checked the D-to-Scart cable and found that

    Yeah that's right, unfortunately, read below...

    You're absolutely right. It seems Toshiba Europe decided that we, european users, would have no use for the Component output so they made the D-Connector just a plug to output rotten composite through the "D-video to scart cable".
    If you bought your Qosmio G20 in the US or in Japan, it would be able to output Component. (cables supplied with US&JP qosmios are the "D-connector to component" type.)
    Even if the nVidia driver gives us the option for D1 -D4, the plug on our european units apparently just won't allow it.
    Talk about misleading advertising, or worse, the marketing guys have strictly no idea what they're talking about.
    I do have a Euro Qosmio, the E10, with D-connector plug and I have bought the "D-connector to Component" cable in Japan. I have no TV or HD screen to test it yet, but I strongly assume it will not work for the reason stated above.
    It seems the D-connector plug output has been "adapted" for european needs (read: its original purpose has been totally destroyed).
    What IS THE POINT of using this output plug for conveying a composite signal is beyond me. Especially since we already have S-VHS output which is fantastic compared to composite. No, i think Toshiba did this so that mr n00b-i-don't-care-about-quality makes it work easily on his TV by just having to plug the scart for both video + audio.
    Very, extremely sad.
    Our only hope would be that the 4 signals (1 ground and 1 composite for video + audio left, audio right and ground for audio (prolly shared with ground for video)) leave some of the pins free for the component signal output.
    I have yet to test on HDTV but i would be extremely surprised if it worked.
    I would *love* anyone to prove me wrong on that one.
    Later,

  • Re: Qosmio G20 - multimedia video controller installation

    Hi friends
    I have tried to install my Qosmio G20 Windows XP (MCE) with PCI device ..
    PCI multimedia video controller.
    USB device.
    I installed it manually and mapped the driver path to "C:/ tools cd "
    It gives me an reply that the no driver is found for the device and get finished..
    So what I am suppose to do now and make it work...
    tanx in advance
    Raja

    If you ran Toshiba Recovery, then the drivers should be in C:\TOSAPINS
    But running recovery should install all the required drivers automatically.
    I am guessing that its the TV Tuner, so go to the Toshiba website and install the TV Tuner Driver.
    If that doesnt work, tell us the VEN and DEV numbers
    For XP: Go to Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager.
    For Vista: Go to Start -> Control Panel -> System -> Device Manager.
    Right-Click on the Unknown Device, and select "Properties".
    Go to the "Details" Tab, select "Device Instance ID" or "Hardware Ids" in the dropdown list.
    You will see something like PCI\VEN_????
    The VEN_ number is the Vendor or Manufacturer. For example:
    8086 = Intel
    10EC = Realtek
    168C = Atheros
    14E4 = Broadcom
    1022 = AMD
    1106 = VIA
    11AB = Marvell Yukon

  • Video playback issue for Adobe Presenter 9 when publishing to Adobe Connect Pro 7

    Hello!
    I am having an issue with video playback for Adobe Presenter 9. When I preview the presentation on my computer there are no issues with any of the MP4 videos that I have loaded into my presentations. However, when I publish the presentation to Adobe Connect and access the URL the videos are either delayed or do not appear at all.  We are using our own Adobe server which we purchased in 2008, along with Adobe Connect Pro 7. We recently updated our Adobe Presenter software to version 9. Is there an incompatibility issue between Adobe Presenter 9 and our current Adobe Server/current version of Adobe Connect? Or do I need to do something different in Adobe Presenter when importing the videos?  Note: I have tried FLV videos and had the same issue.
    We are trying to launch of series of webinars (each webinar has between 15-42 slides), which was the whole purpose of updating our Adobe Presenter and Adobe Captivate software....hopefully we can resolve this video issue.
    Thanks!
    Dana

    Connect 7 didn't support MP4 video content, as I recall. Another issue is that Connect rooms are using Action Script 2 (AS2) while Presenter 9 uses AS3, and the two code languages don't play well together. You don't mention if you are using the meeting application to display the presentation, but it is worth mentioning. If the presentations are stand alone, then the AS3 issue should be non-existent, but the MP4 support may be.
    Is there a reason you haven't updated the Connect software to Connect 9 (or at least Connect 8.1 where the Connect application became AS3 as a whole and supported MP4 content)?

  • Video playback problems for Mac/iTunes

    When iTunes is in video playback mode things go haywire. The video stops (the audio keeps playing ok) then skips forward. Sometimes it will play ok for a few minutes but always starts up again. I have done the profrences thing. No luck. Anybody found a work-around to this problem while Apple gets it's groove back re: iTunes?

    I have the EXACT same problem!! I have gone through the same steps as you and more. I have reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime, emailed support, and they responded as follows: " Dear John, I understand that you're unable to hear any audio when playing this video, purchased from the iTunes Store. I'd be happy to help you with this. Fortunately, this issue can usually be corrected by simply reinstalling QuickTime." I really think it sa something to do with iTunes 7. I didn't have this problem with earlier versions. Something to do with the audio/video drivers?

  • Qosmio G20 = Component Video Cable and High Definition Videos With Pinnacle

    Dear Everybody
    I bought my Qosmio G20-120 from Poland which came with D-video to Scart cable. This cable is only capable of transferring Video (CVBS) signals which is pretty useless because Qoismio has S-Video Output already... Which is better than simple Video Output that I can get from Scart.
    According to www.toshiba-europe.com Qoismio has supposed to have Component Video output. But it comes with Scart cable instead. I am still trying to get this Component Video to D-Video cable from the distributor. If I wont succeed, does anybody know if and where I can buy this cable in Europe? Or is it possible to make a component video to D-video cable out of D-Video to Scart cable?
    As last did anybody try the high definition DVB-S channels on Qoismio by using USB 2.0 DVB-S TV Card.Any opinions about Pinnacle PCTV 400e ??
    Thank You

    Yes I do live in Europe. But who says that Component Video Cable is a standart from USA or Japan. I have been using Component Video Cables to connect my DVD Player with my video projector since 2002. Component Video Cables are wisely used in Europe. And its the ONLY analogue way of transferring HD-Video (Plus DVI and HDMI)
    What disturbs me alot is that on www.toshiba-europe.com they explain that my computer has:
    Interfaces 1 x headphone
    1 x DC-in
    1 x line-in
    1 x external monitor
    1 x RJ-11
    1 x RJ-45
    1 x i.LINK (IEEE 1394)
    4 x USB 2.0
    1 x Monitor-in (line-in port)
    1 x TV-antenna
    1 x S-Video-in (Composite/Line-in)
    1 x TV-out (s-video, Component-out))
    1 x 5-in-1 Bridge Media slot (supports SD Card, Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, MultiMedia Card, xD-Picture Card)
    Where is the Component-out ???Promise is a promise. Why do they say it if they dont give it?
    Instruction manual also says that : D-Video port lets you transfer 525i(480i),525p(480p),1125i(1080i) or 750p(720p) data to external devices.
    How can you transfer 720p with a Scart Cable?? It is impossible.... The only way that Qosmio can transfer 1280x720 picture is a Component Video cable.(Because it has no DVI port) How much does this cable cost anyway?? But the problem is NOBODY is producing it in Europe. I am writing to Toshiba-Japan. Since they are saying that my computer has Component-out so they must get me the cable....

  • Video only plays for a few seconds, then freezes

    The video, which I got from the apple website, plays fine in iTunes but once I upload it to the iPod it will only play for a few seconds before freezing and becoming nonresponsive. Is this a software problem? Anyone know of a solution? Thanks.

    Or you can follow these instructions.... (adopted from btabz)
    Here are more detailed instructions on how to go back to 1.0, espescially if you bought your iPod in the last couple of months and it came with 1.1.
    First, please download the older version of the iPod Updater here...
    http://appldnld.m7z.net/content.info.apple.com/iPod/ww/win/061-2225.20051128.PDW nw/iPodSetup.exe
    Now install that updater and restart your computer.
    Now open the iPod updater (Start-->all programs-->iPod and find the iPod updater you just installed
    Open the iPod Updater and connect your iPod. With that older version of the iPod updater you just installed, restore your iPod by clicking restore.
    The iPod will restore and go back to software version 1.0. Now reload everything back into iTunes.

  • Video only plays for a few seconds, no sound, ALL BROWSERS

    I have having that notorious problem that seems to originate from sometime in 2008. I found no recent reference to it, but that's irrelevant.
    I have no sound in youtube/megavideo/any flash, and the video will only play for 2-3 seconds. This is the same for IE, and Opera.
    Uninstalling via Adobes uninstallation tool and then reinstalling has not fixed this issue. I do not have Realplayer on this system, that I am aware. I am outof ideas. I am using Windows XP SP3, if any other information is relevant I'll post it.

    Hi, well it sounds like something is certainly conflicting but exactly what can't be determined at this point. Confirming that you have the correct Flash Player files Installed would be the first thing to check. Go to C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash  Open Flash and post back all files listed. NPSWF file(s) will need a right click and then click on Properties to obtain the version number(s).
    Using IE, check in all add ons for Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control..Flash10h.ocx. It should be listed that way and Enabled. It may include the vs # 10.1.53.64.
    Using FF, check for the SWF vs 10.1.53.64 plug-in and it should be listed that way and Enabled.
    Thanks,
