Qosmio G30-163: Windows media encoder doesn't recognise video device

I cannot get Windows media encoder to recognise my video camera connected to S-video port (Qosmio G30-163).
I get similar problem with Marratech pro webconferencing application (it crashes after 15-20 second if I try to use it - during the time the application is frosen - in configuration I can see the test picture/video).
If I use InterVideo WinDVD Creator 2 Platinum bundled software for capturing video it works just fine.

Hi Nesko
In my opinion you see this issue a little bit wrong. You are right about some standards but you must know that every hardware manufacturers dont care much about that. Other way Toshiba as notebook producer can not test all cams and external devices with the unit and also all software you can find on the market. It is a mission impossible.
Qosmio is a multimedia unit and if you read specification about that you will see that you can do everything listed there (watch TV, connect camcorder and create own DVD movies etc.). Every one of us has some specific and unique wishes but nobody can guarantee that everything you want will work.
For example: since almost a year I have Qosmio G20. I have tested it with my camcorder, with VHS recorder using it with preinstalled and also third part software and for every situation I have found solution and it work somehow.
I really dont know which cam you have but if you want to have web conferencing without any problems you should by USB webcam with highest resolutions and frames per second. Web cam will be recognized and installed very fast and you can use it any time. Sorry but web conferencing via MCE and cam is not known to me.
Anyway you can try to contact support. Maybe they have some magic\solution. If you will find out how it works please write again. I am really interested if something like that is possible.
Good luck!

  • Windows Media Player Doesn't play video files or DVDs (Windows 7 Home Premium)

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a new hard drive and installed Windows 7 Home Premium on it. Since then, Windows Media Player has not been able to play any kind of video files or DVDs. I have tried using the Fixit tool and turning the WMP off and on with the Windows
    Features menu, but it has not solved the problem. I have also made sure that my video and audio drivers are up to date.
    The errors that come up say:
    Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or a required codec might not be installed on your computer.
    and
    Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings.
    Any help with this would be great, because I like using WMP better than other media players.

    Hi,
    Firstly, please try to use the Video example in C:\Users\Public\Videos\Sample Videos if it could play normally.
    Secondly, try to reinstall Graphic Card driver for test.
    If problem persists, try to remove WMP in Windows feature and add it again for test.

  • Webcam on Satellite A200 doesn't work with Windows Media Encoder

    Hardware: TOSHIBA Satellite A200 (1GH) with integrated Chicony webcam.
    PROBLEM:
    When i using webcam by Chicony software - it's working allright (video recorded normaly).
    BUT: when i closing Chicony software, and starting Windows Media Encoder (preinstalled with Vista) - when i try to select webcam as input device - error is reported "device is not ready".
    This error also repeated if I select for webcam Microsoft webcam driver instead of Chicony native driver.

    Hi
    Download the newest Chicony driver and software from the Toshiba page and install it.
    Dont forget to remove the old version.
    Furthermore if you get the error message like webcam is use by another application or "device is not ready you should start the msconfig and should disable and enable the chicony webcam service and process.

  • Export to windows media encoder-PPro crashes

    Every time I try to export to Adobe Media encoder: windows media: PPro crashes.
    I am working on a 64k computer using the 32k version of PPro CS3.
    Every other format in the media encoder works fine.
    Does anyone have any solutions or know why this happens?
    Thanks,
    J.

    J.Charette, "Export to windows media encoder-PPro crashes" #, 15 Jan 2009 12:24 pm
    This thread is getting a bit old now but I'm now having the exact same problem as J.Charette. I think I may have some light to shed on it as well. I was successfully running CS3 master collection and exporting to WMV files in PPro/AE for the past year under XP64. I was given a new computer (again XP64) and didn't have any problems until I installed Microsoft Windows Media Encoder 64 (I used to use the 32 bit version successfully and this time figured I'd just get the 64 bit one instead).
    Now that I've installed WME I can't export as WMV from any AE/PPro CS3. As soon as AME comes up with the format selection screen, if I select WMV from the drop down box it immediately crashes. I've tried uninstalling WME, reinstalling it and even uninstalling WME & CS3 and reinstalling from scratch. Still doesn't work.
    In my case at least, there is a definite correlation between installing WME64 and its interaction with Adobe Media Encoder... Anyone have any suggestions? It seems to me there must be some registry setting / config file for AME that is causing it to try to use WME64 for something which causes a crash (since 32 and 64 bit apps can't call each other).
    Ideas?
    Thanks,

  • Widescreen footage using the windows media encoder of Matrox 100

    I use PPRO 2.0 with the matrox 100 card. I will encode a footage, shoot in widescreen. Normally when I have a 4:3 picture I use the Matrox mediaencoding for WMP and this works fine. But the matrox mediaencoder settings doesn't have a widescreen setting.
    Using the PPRO encoder in widescreen setting,  the picture is distorted, maybe because of the many time dicussed Matrox system.
    Can anyone give me suggestions to encode a matrox build footage into a mediaencoded footage using the matrox media encoder or otherwise?
    Thanks
    Chris

    Thanks for replying.
    The solution I finally use is to export the AVI in windows media encoder and encode it to WMV format. This works but is as bit more time consuming than directly use the Matrox encoder in PPRO as I use for 4:3 footages (which have no widescreen option).

  • Small icons on Qosmio G30-163

    On Qosmio G30-163,the letter and icon seem so small.

    I belive you that you need glasses but you have great HIGH DEFINITION multimedia notebook and for full HD you need this resolution. Check please display properties under Appearance tab. There you can set font size for different window areas.
    In Internet explorer there is also possible to set text size. Check it out!

  • I can't open wmv files with Lion.  Windows media player doesn't work.  Any suggestions?

    Unable to open wmv files using Lion.  Windows media player doesn't work.  Are there any suggestions.
    Thanks

    macfriedchikkin's reply would make sense to you if you were trying to open a camera, but if you are trying to view streming media from a web site that is a different story. It helps to be very specific about what you are tyring to do on these forums.
    I belive you would go into Firefox Preferences menu and tell it  to use VLC as the application to play WMV files. I'm still running Tiger,  however, so I can't tell you if it the latest version works wel that way. The Tiger version doesn't seem to, but a lot may have changed since then. (I'm only just getting around to installing Leopard next week now that there are too may apps I can't run on Tiger. ) Perhaps someone else on this forum can better help you set  up the player in your browser.
    Or you can cut out the middleman and give VLC the direct video URL:
    Choose Open File from the File menu and paste in the URL of the video, say,
    http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-1
    or http://azul.streamguys.com/auduboncal-2
    Your media should play this way. Dont forget to save the playlist for later.
    I'l keep investigating on my end, and yes, I'm also  encouraging certain people who are streaming windows media in to switching to a different format

  • Exporting Cross Platforms/Windows Media Encoder

    (I know this is an apple forum, but I have transferred videos across platforms from a Mac to a PC. My employer wants me to create wmv files to play on windows media player and all the other forums told me to cross platforms if I couldn't pay for a program to export through Final Cut Pro.)
    Long story short, I exported out of FCP into M2v files. The files are now on the PC, where they play fine. However, when I try to convert into wmv, I lose the first 3-4 seconds of video and it throws the audio off by that much. Am I doing something in Windows Media Encoder to lose that or was the initial transfer from FCP the problem?
    Any help would be great.

    No answer from me about what to do on your PC, but you might go directly from FCP to WMV using Flip4Mac in trial mode. It will give you 1/2 the duration of a clip, up to 30 seconds, so you can test whether it works for your purpose. Could be worth chunking out the $49. for the license.

  • Audio delay in Windows Media Encoder

    I am using WME for broadcasting (streaming).
    The video source (digtal mixer) has a delay of 200ms.
    The audio source (soundcard) has no delay.
    Audio and video are now out of sync.
    WME has no audio offset option, is there another way to delay the audio for 200ms?
    Is there maybe a plugin for WME that can delay the audio?

    This will help you to configure:

  • Media Encoder doesn't start rendering when I queue from Premiere Pro

    I have Premiere Pro CC and Media Encoder CC, and it seems the render in Media Encoder never starts or takes a very long time to process.
    When I start exporting on Media Encoder, the preview shows up, but the encoding time stucks at 00:00:00 or 00:00:01.
    If I export videos using Premiere Pro, the video exports just fine. It just that Media Encoder is not working.
    This happens when I use Audio Effects on my audio files. I've been exporting audio separately and re-importing them into my Premiere Pro project so that Media Encoder will export my videos. But this takes more time to make videos.
    Anyone having this issue?

  • Adobe Media Encoder not loading any videos from Youtube.

    Some HQ videos I downloaded from Youtube and put into Media Encoder doesn't work.  I have the option of downloading an HD .mp4 or .flv.
    For the .mp4s, when I put it into the Encoder the preview and output are both completely black.  When I encode I just get nothing but audio and it's about 4MB.
    For the .flvs when I try to load it simply says it can't load.   The lower quality .flv works though.
    My primary concern is getting the .mp4 to work.  Not entirely interested in the .flv.  I'm using Windows 7 64-bit.
    Help?

    After playing Youtube go to your temp internet
    files and copy the file to HDD which is a mp4.
    Add this to the Media Encoder and see if it will work now.
    If it still does not work, your ME is prob. not working right.
    I sometimes use AME as a converter and it handles mp4 just fine.

    Der aufgerufene Media Encoder stürzt beim Video-Export aus flash immer ab. Weiß Jemand warum?

    Hallo Mylenium,
    Du hast absolut Recht! Meine Anfrage war derart allgemein, dass Niemand damit etwas anfangen konnte. Ich habe das Problem mit dem Adobe-Chat lösen können, es hatte mit meiner AMD-Grafikkarte und einem anderen AMD-Gerät zu tun, deren Treiber aktualisiert werden mussten! Das nächste mal werde ich mich deutlicher zu verstehen geben;-)

  • My iPad doesn't recognise video files when I connect my sd card with the camera connection kit. It only recognises photos from the same card

    My iPad will only recognise photos when I connect an Sd card with the camera connection kit. It doesn't recognise video clips from the same card?!

    Most probably because your camera records videos into MTS files, which aren't cmpatible with iOS. Read http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/playing-back-1080p60i60p-non-mov-videos-right- your-camera for more info and the alternatives (preprocessing ("remuxing") on a desktop etc); don't forget to follow the iVI review link at the bottom if you have a Mac.
