Satellite C850 - fan is slowing down + choppy videos

Hello
I am here to post this about my laptop fan my laptop is an Toshiba Satellite C850 and it has a i3 CPU core
i know this is not good for gaming
the only games i play is war thunder, minecraft and stuff like that not to big games for top speck pcs but its all i can get at the moment
i also do YouTube and when i am trying to play and record i notice my fan speeds up has normal frames then all of a sudden my fan slows down to 20% percent and i get 5 frames and the videos very choppy
If any one could help me this that would be very nice.
Thanks :)

Hi
From my point of few the notebook slow downs due to CPU overloading and the internal temperature.
Because of the high amount of processes which are running simultaneously, the CPU as well as the GPU go to the limit. The result is an high warmness produced by CPU and GPU and therefore the cooling modules and fan run faster.
After that the GPU/CPU performance will be decreased to reduce the warmness. This process slow down the fan and obviously this affects the video performance.
I think first of all you should check if the cooling vents are free of dust. The CPU and GPU require proper cooling and therefore the cooling grilles as well as fan should be free of dust and debris.
Furthermore I would recommend checking the window advanced power management settings.
There you can modify the cooling mode as well as the CPU and GPU performance.
Last but not least an clean system installation could be helpful too. Why?
Because system might be overloaded by different background processes which slow down the system and lock CPU

  • Scrol bar to slow down a video and audio file

    Hello,
    I need a scrol bar to slow down a video file (video and audio)
    Thank you.

    you want a video to play at something other than its native framerate?
    if yes, you can't easily do that with an flvplayback component.  you'll need to separate the audio and visual parts of your video and had them to a movieclip timeline.  then you'll need to customize the playback speed of that movieclip.
    you can use the following to play any movieclip (forward or backward) at any speed:
    function playF(mc:MovieClip, m:int, n:int, fps:int):void {
        var playFFF2:Function = function(mc:MovieClip):void {
            trace(getTimer(),mc.currentFrame);
            if (mc.m<mc.n) {
                mc.nextFrame();
            } else {
                mc.prevFrame();
            if (mc.currentFrame == mc.n) {
                clearInterval(mc.int);
            //updateAfterEvent();
        mc.m = m;
        mc.n = n;
        mc.fps = fps;
        mc.gotoAndStop(mc.m);
        clearInterval(mc.int);
        mc.int = setInterval(playFFF2, 1000/mc.fps, mc);
    // and to stop it:
    function stopF(mc:MovieClip):void {
        clearInterval(mc.int);

    The problem is with your router, your internet service provider or you have a marginal connection with your router.
    Locate your iPad close to your wifi router and see if the problem persists.

  • Satellite P505D-s3859 random slow down then crash

    I got the laptop with Windows Vista, had this problem (along with many other Vista related ones), so I formatted and installed Windows 7 with all the drivers hoping to fix it.  Same problem.  Doesn't seem to affect Ubuntu Linux when I dual boot over into that, but my laptop reliably crashes or has to be rebooted at least once or twice a day.
    The problem seems to be random, but let me describe the normal case that I'm in when it occurs.  I will be running Windows 7, multiple browsers, Yammer, Skype, dropbox, winamp and AVG.  The first, most obvious symptom is that any USB pariphials will stop working (I use a usb wireless mouse) and the sound will go into uber-slow motion mode.  At this point, everything on the laptop will be ultra slow to respond, but I can still close my apps down if I do it quickly.  If I'm not using any external usb nor listening to an audio file, and I miss the slow down event, the laptop will eventually crash.  
    When this happens, I ctrl-alt-del and check task manager, but I don't see anything particular using up all the resources.  I've updated everything I could with the windows 7 drivers from the toshiba site, but still have this problem.  It was affecting me with Windows Vista, and this is the second Windows 7 install I've done on this laptop, with the same symptoms.  
    This is the only thing I see in Event Viewer->Windows Logs->System:

    I'm not a hardware guru, but the problem seems consistent with a flaky hard drive. It certainly has nothing to do with software. See what chkdsk c: /r has to say.
    The entry in Event Viewer occurs when the processor is throttled back to save battery charge.

  • Satellite A500-17X - Games slow down if I play on battery mode

    Hi
    When my laptop (Satellite A500-17X) is plugged in, the game I play (Call Of Duty 4) works very nice but if I try to play the game while my laptop is on battery the games slows down. If you know what I mean.
    Is this supposed to happen because the graphic card doesn't work well when the laptop is on battery or is something wrong with my laptop?

    Hi
    As mentioned my Syntax, Windows power management decreases the performance of some devices like GPU or CPU using battery mode.
    This helps to safe the battery power and to increase the battery working time
    Furthermore your cooling modules dont run with full performance using battery and this would lead to a higher internal temperature which could slow down the CPU and GPU as well
    So connected the AC adaptor or change the settings in power management but you should note that this will decrease the battery working time dramatically.

  • Fan Constantly Running. Choppy Video. Slow Loading. Comp is Slow to Typing

    A week ago my Macbook started to perform slowly. My fan is constantly running and my battery and the area around it is wicked hot. Video is choppy but the audio is streaming fine. Web pages are slow to load and when I type, the screen is a second or two behind what I'm typing.
    I've looked for new updates but none are out currently.

    Did you look at Activity Monitor? Did you check if the battery is deformed? Is your ram working properly - try memest for osx - and seated properly?

  • A55M-P33, CPU fan not slowing down with Cool&Quiet

    Hi,
    I recently build a computer with an A55M-P33 motherboard and A4-3400 CPU with stock fan. That CPU came from my computer and was working fine, the fan too and both throttled down with Cool&Quiet enabled.
    On the A55M-P33, the CPU does throttle down (checked with CPU-Z), but the CPU-fan does not. It keeps spinning at full speed.
    Did I miss a setting in the BIOS, besides the setting to enable Cool&Quiet, or is there something else going on? It's not a big issue though, just a little bit of extra noise, but I hate it when something does not work as it should.

    Only solution to that is to determine if you even need the case fan. If you do, then perhaps you can parallel the case fan with the CPU fan if its PWM, else, look at an aftermarket fan controller.

    Hi Joni S,
    how do I find out what version of Adobe Flash Player I have?
    To find the version double click your HD icon. When it opens select your HD and then in the resulting finder window search for "flash" (no quotes). In the resulting list look for FlashPlayer.plugin. Click on it once to highlight and then do a Get Info command + i or from the File Menu>Get Info. In the resulting pane look for the version. The latest for 10.3.9 is Adobe Flash Player 9.0.
    hope that helps,

  • Is there a way to slow down the playback of video in Captivate 5?

    I just made several recordings (FMR) and would like to slow them down for the viewer.  The video was actually of someone else's software demo that moved way too fast.  On the Captivate skin there is "2x" to move the video twice as fast, but no "1/2x".  Is there another way to slow down the video?

  • Making video start fast and slow down?

    I am trying to avoid doing this in FCP because I know speed changed video can be jumpy...
    Basically I have video that pans and I want to start fast, lets say 600% speed and slow down just at the end to 100%.
    I know that in motion it doesn't work with percentages, so how's the best way to go about this. I tried variable speed, but It starts slow then speeds up...
    Also, I would like to add a motion blur, is this achieved with activating motion blur in the render tab?
    Thanks

    Well, I had a bunch of videos that I overlaid with mattes to make it look like one continuous video... But the resulting video was 30 seconds and I needed it to be 5 seconds..
    So I exported a QT movie and re-imported it into Motion. Then I just went to the Timing property and changed the speed to variable. This gave me a key frame at the beginning and end of the clip. So I just dragged the keyframe at the end to 150th frame (for 5 seconds).
    But since I wanted to slow down the video just a tad at various points, I added a key frame to each area I wanted to slow. I then went into the Keyframe editor and made the interpolation to bezier, then just rotated the bezier to be horizontal. This slowed the video just a tad in each part.
    I also changed the frame blending to motion blur blending.
    Pretty straight forward once I got the hang of it.

  • Speed up / Slow down video in Motion?

    Hi I have motion 2.1 and am wondering if there is a way to speed up or slow down a video in motion. I have a video where I want the people to move to the beat of the music playing in my project.
    Thx in advance.

    Thanks It was actually really easy to find the speed I wanted. (People are already dancing in the clip just slow). I just opened the file and went to the modify menu and went down to speed and found the speed I wanted.
    But, having never used FCP much I am stuck trying to save the clip so I can use it in motion.
    When I go to the file menu it has everything greyed out except "export" which only allows "quicktime conversion" option.
    I tried using that and it only exported the audio. The video was blue screen.
    I guess i'm asking...
    How do you save or export a movie after speeding it up in FCP?
    Thx for any assistance.

  • Satellite C850 - Why does Flash Player give me choppy videos?

    Hi, I have the Satellite C850-1MD, PSCBWE, Windows 8.1 64-bit.
    I have two problems.
    A. When I use Flash Player for streaming videos it gives me choppy playback. It *doesn't matter* if I use lower quality videos because it chops even though I use the lowest quality on sites like Youtube.
    B. If I use Silverlight it streams nicely up to 2 mbit/s but if i raise it to 3 mbit/s the playback gets choppy both with sound and graphics.
    Is it my broadband connection lacking capacity?
    No.
    I also have an old stationary AMD Dual Core with Nvidia 8400 GS and the same conncetion: it streams videos in Silverlight with 3 mbit/s flawlessly.
    I've tried with IE 11, Chrome and Firefox. I've cleared the cache. I've turned off and on hardware acceleration, but with the same results.
    When i search for the latest drivers for my Toshiba I'm getting confused because I get several options both for sound and graphics card. How can I find out which driver versions I should have installed?
    Do you have any other solutions?
    /henrik

    > A. When I use Flash Player for streaming videos it gives me choppy playback. It doesn't matter if I use lower quality videos because it chops even though I use the lowest quality on sites like Youtube.
    This is mostly related to slow data streaming.
    You said its not related to your broadband connection. Well, it must not be an issue with your broadband connection but Im thinking about server load.
    > When i search for the latest drivers for my Toshiba I'm getting confused because I get several options both for sound and graphics card. How can I find out which driver versions I should have installed?
    You can find your devices in device manger.
    The device manager provides you info about all devices which are built in the notebook.
    But honestly dude, Im sure its not a driver problem.
    By the way: the notebook specifications say that the notebook supports Intel HD Graphics 3000
    The Intel HD GPU is an internal graphic card which does not provide a lot graphic performance. Nevertheless it should be good enough for video streaming. However, you could check the Intel HD media control panel to improve Intel HD GPU performance

  • Satellite Pro P100-465 Vista - video play back stutters, slows down

    I'm at my wits end :-(
    uninstalled drivers - re installed drivers - updated drivers (nvidia don't even list the 7600 Go graphics card for vista - used other site recommmened in this site) - changed screen resolution, changed screen bits depth, removed anti virus - plenty of system resources available yet on every single video file playback slows down and speeds up or stutters especially bad when i full screen.
    Tried different video files and dvds, different codecs and players, vlc, media player classic, neros show time, WMP etc etc all are effected. Seems like others have had similar problems and thought maybe they had some more ideas to solve this one ??
    Is there something i haven't tried ? please let me know... thanks for your help

  • Slow FPS, graphics and choppy video when connected to a Mini-DVI cable to external monitor on Macbook Mid2007 4GB RAM

    Hi,
    I have a Mid-2007 Macbook white. I have upgraded its memory to 4GB. Snow Leopard was working great, and I said to myself maybe it's time to upgrade to Lion.
    After the upgrade all was well. However, a big problem occurs when I plug in to the Mini-DVI display port with the HDMI adapter, to connect to my Sony LCD HDTV. The whole graphics and video slow down, everything is choppy. Quicktime and VLC video playback is strobe and choppy looks like very low Frame Rate. Cannot watch anything, not HD nor low resolutions. The entire computer is slow when the cable is connected.
    Things I tried:
    *VGA adapter seems to work fine - it's the digital display output that probably causes that.
    *Running it through a new user.
    This never happened on Snow Leopard. i'm considering to go back. However, I am wondering if there is a way to fix this minor problem.

    Update:
    We solved the problem. Weird solution but now it seems to work. I plugged a VGA adpater and played with the screen rsolutions to try and watch a movie well on my LCD screen. I changed the screen resolutions but I couldn't revert back to the default settings. Pressing "Detect Displays" didn't do anything.
    Here is the interesting part: When I placed back the DVI-HDMI adapter, suddenly everything worked fine!!! There was no choppy videos, no low fps, works prefect.
    Something weird is going on here, but I'm happy I managed to get the DVI to HDMI to work because I was about to removie Lion and bring back Snow Leopard.

  • Slowing down clip has a strobing effect(choppy)? How can I smooth it out?

    Hi guys,
    When I slow down the clip, it plays back choppy or with a strobing effect.
    How can I smooth it out in FCP5?
    Anyone please,
    Many thanks in advance,
    Zia

    Zia,
    I would double check that the 'frame blending' option is selected. Otherwise, is the original footage interlaced or progressive? If you shot progressive and only have 29.97 frames (or less) to work with, you might want to try a plug-in. If the frames do not exist, it will probably be difficult to get a really smooth look.
    Should you have shot at 30i (aka 60i), you can do some high tech stuff with a playback deck and your original tape- set the deck to progressive and the 60 fields will be tranformed into 60 frames (per second), hence giving a slow motion feel that rivals that of film. (this depends on your original media and what deck you can get your hands on)
    I just did this for a music video and even the best DPs that I know thought it was film.
