Qosmio X870/016: Win 8.1 - DVD player 3D option greyed out

I have Qosmio PSPLZA-016003 with Win 8.1
When new I could play 3D Blu-ray disks in 3D no problem on Win 8
I upgraded to Win 8.1 but did not check 3D DVDs worked.
After Toshiba Service updated Blu-ray player I could not play 3D disks in 3D - they appeared as 2D with the 3D icon greyed out. The Blu-ray player service update was to 1.0.5.175
I have:
1. Updated BIOS to 6.3 from support site.
2. Removed player and reinstalled from my c: drive
... program files/PINS/COMPS1/Toshiba blu-ray Disc Player-V1.0.5.48
3. Installed V1.0.5.175_A from support site (this shows in 'About Player' as V1.0.5.175)
I still have problem that 3D DVDs show as 2D and 3D icon greyed out in player window.
I assume the combination of Win8.1, Bios 6.3 and DVD Player V1.0.5.175_A should work - any suggestions?

Hi
I assume you did something wrong during the update from Win 8 to Win 8.1
Here on this Toshiba page (responsible for Australian notebook series) you can find information how to upgrade the units from Win 8 to Win 8.1

  • Dvd player not responding, spits out dvd

    My dvd player does not read dvds. It just spits out the dvd. This has only begun after I installed Lion.

    The thing may need cleaning, go to your local office supply store and get a CD/DVD cleaning kit.

  • No power to hard drive and DVD player

    I got a G4 1.67ghz PowerBook of eBay. It powers on with out any problems and goes to the flashing question mark. So I put in a new known good hard drive and tried putting in the 10.5 install disk but the DVD player wouldn't take it. So I hooked an external DVD player and restarted. When I got to Disk Utility it only shows the external player. No hard drive and no internal DVD player. I can't hear the hard drive spinning in the PowerBook.
    What would cause the PowerBook to work perfectly otherwise but no power getting to the hard drive and internal DVD player?

    I found out what the problem was! I put the hard drive into an external enclosure to see if Disk Utility would see it. when I did that the DVD drive showed up in Disk Utility. So I looked at the hard drive and found it had a jumper on it setting it for Cable Select. I pulled off the jumper and the hard drive showed up in Disk Utility! Why having the jumper on it would make both the hard drive and the DVD drive not show up in Disk Utility I have no idea.

  • M4500 anable to connect with DVD player

    Hi,
    Kindly help me I am not able to connect my Creative M4500 speakers with DVD player.
    Regards

    Not sure what your asking as it should be very simple, you are talking about the X-fi front bay unit right? You have a DVD player with R&w outs, you simply connect to those and then the same R&W connectors on the bay unit. I believe its treated as Linein2 in the mixer. Should be very simple to figure out

  • DVD Player initialization error -43

    DVD player stopped working since I ran a program called MacKeeper to cleanse unwanted files.
    Now: I start DVD player and it puts out the message
    There was an initialization error.
    Error: -43
    However, Front Row still works for this DVD and CDs will play ....

    I use Time Machine to backup my Imac to an external drive.
    I put in the Snow Leopard system disc as if I were going to re-install.
    You start the computer while pressing the C key and this makes it start from the system disc.
    The install routine starts and then there are menu options that appear at the top.
    Restore the system from backup is one of these. The Time Machine backup gives you a spacey looking timeline and you can choose the day and time that you want to go back to.
    Took about 5 hours because I have a USB connection instead of the Firewire, but it ran overnight and all was well in the morning.
    It is possible to re-install from the system disc just the software while preserving your data in a safe part of the disc - but it would be best to look this up.

  • Frame-By-Frame / DVD Player application is missing?

    Hey everybody!
    So I finally made the witch and got myself a nice new macbook pro about a month ago! Everything is going well with so far, but I may have just run across a bit of a small problem.
    I'm an animator, and I like to be able to study animations frame by frame. I can't really seem to do this in Front Row. Or if I can, I can only go forward frame by frame. I need to go back and forth, one frame at a time. Am I missing a shortcut in Front Row for this?
    Furthermore, I can't watch DVDs in front row in any other mode than full screen... I'd rather have it in a small window. This also doesn't seem to be an option with FR.
    I would have thought that the program "DVD Player" would help me out, but I can't seem to find it on my computer! So I searched through the site here, and I found an installer - Great! Except that when I run it, I get an error message saying "You cannot install DVD Player on this volume. A newer version of this software already exists on this volume".... But... But... WHERE IS IT??? I've searched my computer for it, but it doesn't show up anywhere. Yet the installer thinks that there's a new version here somewhere.
    Anybody have any god ideas as to what's up, or what I can do to watch DVDs in a window (not full screen), frame by frame, back and forth?
    Thanks!
    -Pete

    So it seems I fixed most of my problem(s)!
    I found a way to extract DVD Player from my install disks (Pacifist). So at least I have that working now. But I still can't frame step backwards... Annoying, but that just seems to be the way, I suppose.
    If anybody has any suggestions about working around that problem, that would be greatly appreciated - Otherwise, the full screen and DVD Player problems are resolved.
    Thanks!
    -Pete

  • Shapeshifter themes may prevent DVD Player from playing movie DVDs

    A user on Apple Discussions reported that every time they played commercial DVDs they got an
    "Error: `nilP`"
    When trying to play DVDs on their DVD Player software. Turned out the problem was a certain theme they had installed to use with http://www.unsanity.com/ 's Shapeshifter product. At the point of the writing of this FAQ, it is unknown which themes cause this issue. However, if you get this issue, please report the problem to the theme author and Unsanity so that the problem may be fixed. Always be sure that when you install system modification utilities like these that they are up to date for the operating system you are about to update to before updating to that operating system, and checking how to uninstall them if necessary before updating the operating system.

    Reset the NVRAM/PRAM and Reset the SMC, then try again.

  • Error message when running HD-DVD player after clean win 7 install on P205-S6347

    On a P205-S6347, did clean win 7 ultimate install with toshiba instructions and loadup software downloaded from toshiba support.  On first dvd player install of latesed full player, got a video eror.  Installed latets patch, now I get "An error has occured in the audio output settings. Please check thet the sound driver is set up properly" The sound playes fine for all other programs/utilities.  Note, I am running USB powered Logitec external speakers.  I have tried to follow all the recomendations of others with this problem, yet nothng works, unless I'm not using the right software, yet I only use whats on the site for the model and OS.  The reason that I want to use this OEM player is that I havent found a comparable player that does just that, playes DVD's like a home unit, complete with menu access as a physical player would and that the moving cursers only seem to work with the Toshiba player, whereas others like VLC and Kantaris will only show one moving curser on a menue and I have to guess where the next one is to slick it to start, and Real Player isnt any better either.  Other problems I've had with other players are that the graphics seem a bit hazy sometimes, I never have that problem with the Toshiba player.  Also, others have way to many bells and whistles, I only want a player that works doing that specific job.  I wish Toshiba would package a universal player that could be installed with all that it needs to run itself.  Any Ideas folks?

    Try to use the command ipconfig /renew in the cms (command dos box)
    Also try this:
    Control Panel > Administration Tools > Computer Management > Services & Applications > Services.
    Scroll down this list to find 'WLAN Auto Config'
    Double click on 'WLAN Auto Config' On the general tab, select from the start up type drop down menu, select 'Automatic'. Under Service Status click on 'Start'. Then 'Apply' these settings and exit from all open control panel windows.
    Otherwise uninstall the Realtek driver in the device manager.
    Then reboot the notebook.
    Download the Realtek WLan driver again and install it.

  • Qosmio G30-E10: No Playback of DVD`s with "Toshiba HD DVD Player"

    Hi all,
    If I try to playback a normal DVD (not a HD-DVD) with the Toshiba HD-DVD Player Software, I get the following message from the HD-DVD Player:
    "This player has no DVD Playbackfunction. Please try an appropriate application for DVD playback"
    HD-DVD Drive has current firmware. HD-DVD Player is on current patchlevel 4.20.16.
    DVD-Playback with InterVideo WinDVD works fine!
    Notebook is a Qosmio G30-E10, with Vista Ultimate (Factory standard).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.
    Sincerely
    Uwe

    Hello
    Have you ever ask yourself why Toshiba install two players on this HD-DVD notebook? Probably not.
    With short words: HD-DVD player is designed for playing HD-DVD movies only. For watching usual DVD movies use DVD player. For this purposes use WinDVD player.
    Bye and enjoy your great Qosmio notebook.

  • Cannot use BD DVD Player: WIN DVD MFC application has stopped working

    Tried to install my old version of WinDVD and failed and in the process may have accidentally deleted a file,
    for now whenever I try and use BD DVD Player I get the following message:
    'WIN DVD MFC application has stopped working '
    I tried using restore point but still get it, can anyone advise please?

    It will be interesting to know which notebook model do you have.
    Anyway, in my opinion there is some software conflict. I can imagine both players use same modules or plug-ins and there is conflict.
    I dont know what solution can be but maybe you should remove both players, restart your notebook and make clean BD player in hope it will works properly.

  • Qosmio F60 - Change screen settings when using DVD player

    When I try to play DVD using BD DVD Player a message appears that tell me to change the screen setting I have followed their instruction to no availo. I am running Windows 7. The DVD plays on windows media ok.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Hi ametec,
    Was this BD DVD player preinstalled on your computer?
    Which message you getting exactly? Maybe you can upload a screenshot or something else
    In my opinion this problem is only related to this DVD player because on Media Player everything works
    For example I use VLC media player for all my audio and video files. Its a small freeware player that can play the most audio and video files. Furthermore its not necessary to use a special DVD player software.
