Satellite P200 and Panasonic UJ-225 Blu Ray burner

Anyone any ideas about this Blu Ray drive working in a P200?
The operating architecture should be able to handle it but what about drivers? Is this drive the OEM that Toshiba are using in their Blu Ray laptops now?
It seems a clear upgrade route that I am suprised Toshiba are not offering themselves, or are they?

Hello
To be honest I also dont know if a Blu Ray drive would work in pretty old Satellite P200 but Im also interested in a Blu Ray drive for my notebook because I want to watch new videos in Blu Ray quality on my notebook too. But as far as I know Toshiba doesnt offer such drives at the moment so there is no information about compatibility in notebooks so Im not sure if such a drive will work in your notebook.
Theoretically you could test such a drive in your favorite computer shop and ask for such a drive and if you can test in your notebook. So you can make sure if it will work or not and then you can tell us your experience about this if it works or not.
As far as I know at the moment Toshiba doesnt offer a Blu Ray drives at the moment but I did read in the Internet that some new models like Qosmio G60 will be equipped with Blu Ray drive.

Blu ray burner options?

Hi Everyone,
I am looking to get an internal Blu Ray burner for my Mac Pro but sadly I realized that the internal connection is PATA. OWC offers a wide variety of Blu Ray burners but all the internal ones are SATA. Does anyone know if an adapter exists to make this work? Or should I give in and maybe go for an external FireWire 800 model?
I do have Windows XP SP2 installed via Bootcamp and whatever model I get would need to be recognized in both platforms. I'm just having some trouble understanding this high definition technology.
Suggestions? Please
Rio

Hi Malcolm,
Thanks for the link. Very useful info and solution. In the meantime I found an MCE Blu-ray burner but I'm not sure if it would be a better solution that the one you have provided. This one is quite expensive and I don't know this company's credibility. Here is the address:
http://www.mcetech.com/blu-ray/#osxcompat
I wonder if it would be a better investment to get the adapter you suggested and get a SATA Blu-ray burner which could, if needed be inserted into an enclosure if I wanted to use it externally with another computer in the future. Would the speed be affected by using it externally?

CAN I BUY A PANASONIC SKYPE READY BLU RAY PLAYER A...

CAN I BUY A PANASONIC SKYPE READY BLU RAY PLAYER AND USE LOGITECH SKYPE CAMERA TOGETHER? ARE THEY COMPATIBLE? OR DO PANASONIC PLAYERS ONLY WORK WITH PANASONIC WEB CAMERAS ON SKYPE?

Following 2 yrs of thread here and just having been given a new Panasonic BD110 3d Blu Ray with a Skype button on its remote, DNLA, built in WiFi, ethernet, BBC i-Player, YouTube etc. I set it up and went thru BluRays, DVD's, HDMI, sound etc. I was impressed, so I bought a decent webcam and plugged it in - nothing happened. Read the manual, did everything spot on, nothing! Pana's web site, Skype, Bing, Google, customer "support", confusion all round.
It seems Panasonic don't now sell either of their own cameras (discontinued? binned? still supported? forgotten? hoping we'll forget) - but the Blu Ray/Skype models are still for sale. If this concept had been made to work, it would have been world beating!! Otherwise a recall and refund or upgrade offer should be made. There's been no apology or explanation that I can find.
This is a scandal from such a reputedly "high end" manufacturer that makes stuff for hospitals even!! And it has published DNLA and other approvals that clearly are not true.
I'll be in touch with Panasonic again and try escalating the issue, though it seems Japan knows about it and are keeping quiet in the hope the problem will fizzle out. We should individually contact the technical press and their web sites and also raise Caine under a Trade Descriptions breach. Making a warranty claim is fully justified too.
We don't know how many they sold and how many want that feature but I'll bet many thousands were made. So if a big enough bunch of us complain we should be able to make life uncomfortable for the idiots who failed us, their own employees, some important business partners, the Standards folks, and the poor souls who have to speak to us on the phone or across the Argos & Curry's counters.

LAN Connection Error: Panasonic DMP-BD35 Blu Ray Player

Hello,
My Panasonic DMP-BD35 Blu Ray player has a wired LAN connection port that is used to download firmware updates.
When I was using a DLink WBR-2310 with Verizon DSL the system worked perfectly with the BD35 player wired to a LAN port on the DLink router. I recently switched to Verizon FiOS and now the BD35 player is wired to LAN port 2 on the FiOS wireless router.
The BD35 is no longer able to connect to the network now that it is wired to the FiOS router. When I run the connection test an error is returned, "Cannot obtain IP Address using DHCP." However, all of my other network devices (Wii, Laptops, Desktops, Print Router, etc.) have had no problem connecting to the router, both wirelessly and wired. I have even wired a laptop to the jack that the BD35 is using and the laptop connects just fine (wireless turned off). Also, I checked the Port Configuration screen on the router and Port 2 is showing that it is connected at 100Mbps Full-Duplex when the BD35 is on, but the device does not appear on the list of devices connected on the My Network screen.
Here are the settings on the BD35:
- IP Address Auto Configuration (DHCP) = ON
- DNS Auto Configuration (DHCP) = OFF
- Auto Detect Connection Speed = ON
Does anyone have experience with this issue? Is it possible to setup a Static IP for the BD35 in the router using the MAC Address for the BD35?
Thank you!

I'm not familiar with the Panasonic BD35 but I would suggest that you try it with DNS Auto Configuration turned on.
You may also be able to set it up with a manual address that is way out of the range of anything that you woudl normally use.
Try the following:
Check the TCP/IP Address that your PC is getting. Assuming your IP Address is set to 192.168.1.x set the Panasonic to
IP Address: 192.168.1.200
Subnet: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS: 192.168.1.1
The Verizon STBs will use 100 to 150 and your other DHCP Devices woudl normally use the addresses between 2 and 99.
If you still have problems try using OpenDNS and set the DNS address to 208.67.222.222.

How do I change file format so I keep HD and can play on blu ray player?

how do I change file format so I keep HD and can play on blu ray player?

Hi
Part of it - in my way of doing is
Roxio Toast™ Pro incl BD-component.
• Burn short AVCHD - on standard DVDs (20-30 minutes at HD quality) - NEED Blu-Ray player to be viewed
or BD-burner and disks - for full Blu-Ray Disks (not got to this yet)
I think that saving as .mpeg4 H.264 and save on USB-memory to be put into PlayStation3 also keep high quality playback.

Toast 11 and ASUS Blue-Ray burner not working together!

Hey All,
I recently got an ASUS SBC-06D2X-U Blue-Ray burner and found out that little "Mac compatabile" label isn't correct. Had to get Toast 11. Now I have that and the disk spits out still when I try to burn. I don't know what to do at this point. Disks are 4x and burner is 6x, but that shouldn't matter.
Help please!

it has nothing to do with windows or mac..
Your bluray from Asus its COMBO, that model doesn´t record bluray,

JVC Everio HD and PRE9 - Optimal Settings to Blu-ray burn

I have a new GZ-HM550 (AVCHD 1920x1080/60i and have really been struggling with finding an NLE that I like. I have plenty of computer (Dell Vostro, quad core, 4GB RAM, XP Pro, blu-ray burner) that I use for my photography business. I've tried Pinnacle Studio (sucks - poor output), and now PRE9 and I'm not confident I'm doing it right because I can't get blu-rays to author properly - just won't play on the deck. The only program I've found that works is the one that shipped with the JVC, and it's very limited in creativity.
I Adobe Creative Suite CS4 on the machine, but didn't think to buy CS4 Premiere when I bought everything else. CS5 Premiere would work, but only supports 64bit op systems and for now I need to stick with XP for other reasons - so I'm looking for a NLE that will work with these very large .mts files I was hoping that PRE9 would be it, but so far I don't think so, everything seems to take forever, and it looks like it's transcoding when it burns to Blu-Ray - which I wouldn't think it should need to.
Any guidance or advice on how to set up project and share options to get high quality output with this combination? Desired projects will be wedding and event videos with relatively simple transitions and menu's but in highest possible quality to blu-ray disc

Welcome to the forum.
There are only two formats allowed on BD, HD MPEG-2, and BD-compliant H.264. Though the AVCHD is a sub-set of H.264, it is not quite the same as the BD-compliant H.264, so one will need to Transcode for BD authoring.
One thing that I am not sure of (don't have PrE 9, so I cannot check), is whether PrE offers a choice of BD format. Others will be able to tell you though.
Also, just as with DVD, I strongly recommend using the best quality blank media, when doing BD. The quality and playability will be much higher. Verbatim is about as good as it gets. Memorex is about as bad as it gets. Store brands, and many others, are nearly as bad as Memorex. What brand of blank media have you been testing on?
Good luck,
Hunt

I have burned to my external blu ray burner 3 times, but twice ended up with glitches in the project. now it stops at 59% and won't finish sharing. How do I get it to finish sharing?

I have burned to my external blu ray burner 3 times, but twice ended up with glitches in the project. now it stops at 59% and won't finish sharing. How do I get it to finish sharing?

It's a complex project and there are a lot of possibilities. Among them is the length; there are a number of reports of projects that are approaching 2 hours failing to burn.
If it's a question of jarring Create Disk into action, one thing that has worked for some users is simply to click on and the Apply button (s) in the Settings pane of the Blu Ray Share window and then hitting Cancel. This can be tested by duplicating your project and selecting a tiny section of your sequence and exporting. Change the Output Device to Hard Drive and see whether Create Disk successfully writes a disk image.
You can also check that a specific clip isn't rendering properly. Since the process got to 59%, it may just mean that the burn couldn't be initiated by Create Disk – or it may indicate a problem with a clip toward end of your sequence. (If you can check the log, there may be something useful in there.)
Use the duplicated project and this time set a range for the last 30 minutes or so of the project and export it, using the Blu Ray destination. Again, set Output Device to HD and see whether it will complete.
Good luck.

Availability of Panasonic DMP-BD30 Blu-Ray Player

Does anyone know when the Panasonic DMP-BD30 Blu-Ray Player will be available? The last I heard was Nov. 13th. but I don't see any in stock.
Thanks for any information.

That's the first thing I'd try. If that doesn't work, in AirPort Utility put the Time Capsule into "manual setup" mode, then pull down the menu option Base Station -> Equivalent Network Password.

Install an internal blu-ray burner on a 24' iMac 2.4 Ghz

Been trying to find an internal blu-ray burner drive to install on my 24 inch iMac 2.4. Does anyone know of an internal drive I can use. Thanks all.

Get a Panasonic UJ-235 (SATA) or UJ-225 (ATA). I installed one in my 27" iMac. It works like it came from Apple. Any 12.5 mm slot loading optical drive will work in an iMac, but the best option is the UJ-235. Your best bet on finding one is on ebay as they aren't redily avaliable for retail purchase as they are mainly for oem aplications. Wait, check to see if you optical drive is sata or ide, if it is ide you can't use the UJ-235, it will take the UJ-225. the way to check is in the sytem information. Look under ATA, if it is your current superdrive will be listed there adn go with the UJ-225. then check serial-ATA, if the suoerdrive is listed there then go with the UJ-235. Toast will burn a bluray, makemkv will rip one, and Mac BluRay palyer will play it. You can do a decrypted rip an clone a commercial blu ray with MakeMKV and toast. But there is no reson to do that because the blank double layer discs are more expensive than buying the movie. Also Handbrake is now bluray ready, you have to do a decryted rip first. But you can make a m4v file that is much better than ones you purchase on itunes. itunes only has them in 720p right now but you can make them in 1080p with handbrake, and incrase the bitrate. Granted, it will take about 12 hours with the 2.4 dual core intel, but it will do it. I have the 3.4 i7 with 32 gb of ram and it takes about 3 hours. I heard a 12 core mac pro can do it in 20 min, so long as the ram is maxed out at 96 gb. But my set up ran about $4,000 and the mac pro set up like that will push $10,000.
Really, your best bet is to use a full speed external through firwire 800 or usb2. The read and burn speed is determined by the drive anyway and those fullsized drives are so much faster than laptop internal drives that the iMac uses.

C55DT-B5208 internal blu-ray burner?

I have a Satellite C55DT-B5208 and am wondering if it's possible to install an internal blu-ray burner. If so does anyone know of a decently priced one that would work in this model?
Thanks for any help!
Krystofer

I don't know about Blu-ray, but the model above in your same part-number family has an optical drive. So you should be able to install the same one.
If you want to pursue it, call a parts vendor and ask them to look up that second model. (It's too new to be listed there.)

DVD & Blu Ray Burner Drive Trays Do Not Stay Open When Media is in the Drive

I have a problem with both Windows 8/8.1 and the Windows 10 Technical Preview (there is no issue when I run Windows 7).
I have 2 optical drives: 1) DVD Burner and 2) Blu Ray Burner (I just got the second drive a few weeks ago). They are attached to the secondary SATA Chip (see below for specifics).
The problem I'm having is that when I eject media from either drive, the drive does not stay open, but rather immediately closes. Before I got the Blu Ray Burner, I had this problem with just the single DVD Burner by itself. I was hoping when I installed
Windows 10 Technical Preview that this problem would not be present, but it is present in that O/S as well.
This problem will repeat continuously if I attempt to use the eject button and so I either have to grab the disc while the tray is moving, or if I press the eject button again on the drive at the right time, I can get it to re-open and not close (this
is tricky to get the button timing right as it seems like it has to be done close to when the drive tray is fully extended when it starts retracting). It usually takes me 5 to 10 button presses to get it to stay open. Sometimes it will stay open for about
0.5 to 1s before it closes again, but most of the times it just immediately closes. I also have the same problem if I use the software eject feature by right clicking on the drive and choosing eject.
Of course, the expected behavior is that pressing the eject button should open the tray, but not close it immediately allowing you to remove the disc.
Here is some background information about my system and how the drives are connected:
1. Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EP45-ED3P Revision 1.0 LGA 775
2. Interface (for both drives): Gigabyte SATA II Chip - 2 x SATA 3 GB/s connectors (GSATA2_0, GSATA2_1) supporting up to 2 SATA 3 GB/s devices
3. Memory: 8 GB (4 x 2 GB)
It should be noted that I tri-boot between Windows 7, 8/8.1, and 10 Technical Preview and that this issue is not present in Windows 7, but has always been there in Windows 8/8.1 and now it is present in 10TP as well.
I've had this system for just over 6 years now and it is still going strong. It should be noted that I have both drives on the secondary SATA chip (as identified above), which is meant to be used with removable SATA devices.
Since the problem exhibits itself in both Windows 8/8.1 and 10TP, a reinstall of the O/S will have no affect on this problem and so this appears to be some other issue that is consistent between Windows 8/8.1 and 10TP.
I'd appreciate your support in looking at this issue - thanks!
Matt Caspermeyer
P.S. I also submitted this feedback through the Insider Program.

Hey Zagayer,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
As you now have two optical drives in your Mac Pro, you need to be able to choose which drive to eject. That is built into the system. You just hold the Option key while tapping eject for the 2nd drive.
OS X Mountain Lion: Eject a disk
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10613
If your computer has two optical drives, hold down Option-Media Eject or Option-F12 to eject a disc from the second drive.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Help with Blu Ray burning requested

I've been using PRE for many years now very succesfully with no significant problems until I entered the world of HD and Blu Ray. My system specs are at the bottom of this post. I've been recording HD for some years now on my Sony HDV camcorder and rewriting the final production back onto HDV tapes. I recently decided to move up and get myself a blu ray writer now that burners and media have become affordable (well relatively) . . . and the beginning of all my problems.
Normally I create 10 minute final productions from about an hour of footage; however, after a 3-week trip to China, I've created a 50 minute production from which I want to create a Blu Ray disk. The production contains quite a lot of transitions, titles and still images (taken with 10 Megapixel camera).
I can render the project OK although it does take quite a few hours. However, my system crashes (Blue Screen) at about 85% of the way through the Blu Ray encoding process. I've split the project into 2 seperate projects - one of 20 minutes and one of 30 minutes. The 20 minute one burns to Bly Ray ok but the 30 minute project still crashes (Blue Screen again) towards the end. One obvious solution would be to split the project down in to 3 seperate projects and burn to 3 Blu Ray disks but this kind of ruins the point of having a Blu Ray writer as I could have created 3 AVCHD DVD disks instead.
The problem seems to be lack of memory. The encoding process seems to work in the 1 - 2 GB space until very near the end when the memory requirement seems to soar up to 4 GB limit. My suspicion is that Premiere is trying to use all the system memory and tramples over the system needs hence causing the whole system to Blue Screen.
I've scoured through the various forums and have found that lots of other users have had similar problems but not found any solutions. Has anyone managed to create a decent sized Blu Ray disk from Premiere Elements - and, does anyone know the minimum configuration for doing this.
System:
Premiere Elements 8
Sony Viao VPCCW1S1E - Intel Core 2 Duo P7450 running Windows 7, 4 GB memory with everything running on the system c: drive.with 150 GB free.

Thanks Steve

Steve,
First a question: what is the size of your still images in pixel x pixel dimensions?
Now, a BSOD is almost always a hardware issue. The most common causes are:
1.) Heat build up, especially with regard to the CPU
2.) RAM - usually a block going bad
3.) Powersupply either under powered for the load, going bad or perhaps a rail not being up to the necessary voltage.
3.) MoBo - often a soldered connection (could be almost anywhere in the bus) heating up and separating.
First thing that I would do would be to turn OFF Reboot on Error, in hopes that there will be something useful on the BSOD. Next, I would download and install SpeedFan, which will monitor every sensor on your computer. Along the way, I would check the operations of all fans, and clean out any dust. Run the system under the same load, but with SpeedFan's GUI up. Watch the temps everywhere.
This ARTICLE's links will point you to several great utilities, including SpeedFan.
There are also RAM testing utilities, and I would run those.
Check the output of your power supply and check that against what is needed for each rail. Do not forget to add the load of your new BD burner.
In case the BSOD screen does not offer any help (often it's just bunches of code, that no one can gather any info from), this ARTICLE will give you tips on finding out clues as to what is happening on your computer, when the BSOD happens.
Though it will likely not help, as a BSOD is most often hardware related, but this ARTICLE will help you get your system ready (once the BSOD issue is solved) for Video editing.
Last, having only one HDD is a big handicap when editing Video, and doubly so with HD. One needs an absolute minimum of 2x 7200 RPM (min.) HDD's, and my recommended minimum is 3x. For HD playback, Adobe recommends at least a RAID 0 for the media drive, for PrPro. PrE is not that much different, regarding real-world system requirements for HD.
Good luck,
Hunt

Premiere Elements 11 no longer recognizes my external blu-ray burner.

I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today, but for some reason Premiere Elements 11 is not recognizing it. Windows 7 sees it just fine. Premiere Elements 8 (which is still loaded on the same computer) also does not recognize it.
What do I need to do? Samsung's website is no help, but I have a feeling it's an Adobe issue since Windows 7 still recognizes the drive.

rbcourter
When is your Blu-ray burner not recognized
Premiere Elements 11: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, burn to AVCHD on DVD disc, or all?
Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1: burn to DVD disc, burn to Blu-ray disc, or both?
and when you wrote:
I have used my Samsung SE-506BB-TSBD external burner many times before today
Did "....many times before today" imply that you could use the burner for Premiere Elements 11 and 8.0/8.0.1 before. I am trying to get a whether this is a "it worked before but now" or a "it never worked before" type issue.
Do you have the USB 2.0 cable connected to a USB 2.0 computer port directly or via a USB multi port hub? I take it that this burner does not have AC support? If you are using only 1 USB 2.0 port, can you set up the burner for 2 USB 2.0 ports?
Does the computer involved have an internal burner? Or is this the only burner that you have available to you external or internal for the computer?
Let us start here and then decide what avenues of further troubleshooting are available to us.
Thanks.

I don't see a blu-ray icon in the destination window of my Final Cut Pro app even if I have an LG blu-ray burner connected

I have a MACBOOK PRO running under 10.9 and 4 Gigs memory. I bought FCP to be able to burn blu-rays videos (I produced a 4h30 video on a trip to Turkey)
My video is produced in full HD. I have an LG blu-ray burner. I bought training videos on FCP at Macpro Video and they show that going on SHARE and selecting ADD A NEW DESTINATION will bring a window where should be an icon of a blu-ray disc. But I don't see any blu-ray icon there. My burner is the model BP40NS20

Thanks Tom! Yes, I have the french version. Then, is there a something to do to correct it.
