Source of strange Thumbnail in Cyberlink Power DVD Player?

Hi!
My client just showed the DVD I made for her using DVDSP4 on her Cyberlink Power DX DVD Player (PeeeeCeeeee application) and while everything else worked fine, she gets a foreign thumbnail with the title of the disk next to it when she presses the Help button on the player. The title is just what I entered in DVDSP and Toast 6, but the thumbnail is a ***** scene with the words "nude" underneath.
Apparently, the DVD plays that way on other Cyberlink players around the university as well. The DVD I made for her a couple of months prior using DVDSP3 appears on the Help menu with a blank thumbnail next to the title. So no problem with that one. Does anybody know where this thumbnail comes from? Is there some secret image embedded in my DVD I don't know about? Gosh this is embarrassing.

After a few emails with Cyberlink, various test DVDs, etc. Problem is solved.
1. Thumbnail doesn't come from DVD, but Dell version of PowerDVD player gets thumbnail from internet.
2. The particular thumbnail appears to be based on the TITLE of the DVD (i.e. change the title and the program will display no thumbnail). I guess the title of ours "Auditions" was adult rated somewhere out in cyberspace or something...
3. By the way, even Cyberlink PowerDVD on a Dell running vers. 5.5 didn't display the adult thumbnail, just 5.0xx and 5.1xxx. The new download version of their software doesn't have such a thumbnail help menu page.
Thanks for your help.

DVD from Elements 3.0 has no audio on Cyberlink Power DVD

I've burnt a DVD from Elements 3.0 which seems to go okay but when I put the DVD back in to the drive and open Cyberlink Power DVD, it plays without audio.
What's the griff with that?
Chummy

As a test of what Steve wrote, go back to PE, and Burn to Folder. Point CyberLink Power DVD to that folder and play from there. Do you get Audio?
I'm with Steve in that PE does a good, DVD-spec AC3 Audio file, that *should* play fine. CyberLink Power DVD is a good software player.
If you are not getting Audio, first place I'd check was the Audio setup on my system and then Ctrl-c from within Power DVD. What are the settings under the Audio tab there?
Good luck,

How do you close " CyberLink power DVD"

Keep getting notification to close Cyber Link power Dvd when i try to view a video , I have a new HP Pavilion Windows 8.1
Cant find solution other than to reboot

Hi rhr22,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I have read your post on how your CyberLink Power DVD gives you a notification when viewing videos, and I would be happy to assist you! To begin, I will need to ask you a few questions:
What is the Product and Model Number of your desktop computer?
Has your computer completed all of its important Windows Updates?
Is this an on-going or recent issue?
If you use a different video viewing program such as Windows Media Player?
When you receive this notification, is there a numbered error in the same window?
Do you get this same error message if you try different DVDs?
Please re-post with the necessary information, and I look forward to your reply!
Regards

Cyberlink power DVD activation key.

Hello.
I have played DVDs on this Satellite C75D-A7102 before but now the Cyberlink app (Toshiba installed) Said I need an activation key to start the app. Win 8.1 with AMD A6 chip. How can I get this activation key? Cyberlink power DVD is not listed in the add/remove programs list but it was loaded from the factory. DVDs used to autoplay but do not anymore.
Thank you in advance.
Pete

I have no solution to your specific problem. Your specifications above make no mention whatsoever of Cyberlink. What is mentioned, is the 'Toshiba Media Player by sMedio Truelink+'. Given Cyberlink is NOT listed as an included software with your system, even as 'Trial Software', regardless of your assertion that it was factory loaded, I don't see there being any chance of obtaining an activation code for it.
Try the Toshiba Media Player instead. Personally, I like VLC Player, and I never have problems playing DVDs, CDs, MP3s, etc, or any kind of audio/visual media with it.
With regard to Autoplay, if it has in fact become disabled on your laptop, I would strongly advise you to leave it that way. One of the main ways viruses propagate themselves is through USB flash drives, burned CDs/DVDs and any portable/removable media. The infected machine puts the virus on the removable media, often using Auotplay to do so, and when that media is then put in any other un-infected machine, the virus can then use Autoplay to infect this unit. Disabling Autoplay is one way to help prevent the spread of viruses.

Re: Toshiba Service Station - Cyberlink Power DVD Update

Hi Everyone
Just purchased this new Toshiba Satellite L50-B laptop, downloaded the firmware update and then it said the DVD software needed updating. But it seems the boxes are greyed out in the Service Station app. Please can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.
Ben

Hi Ben
Pretty often messages from service station can be confusing. You have new notebook and if everything works perfectly you don't need to install any update, especially not for DVD player.
As far as I know service station just offers information about updates but you are not forced to do this.
I use my notebook since more than three years with original factory settings and I didnt install any update for drivers or preinstalled software. Everything works well and stabile. Why to change anything?

Very strange problem with sound in dvd player

Hi
I have a strange issue which I am cannot resolve. I recently purchased season 2 of NYPD Blue on dvd, region 1 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008YGRR/qid=1151702794/sr=1-3/ref=sr13/103-1409159-4182204?s=dvd&v=glance&n=130). The season is spread over several discs. The region of the dvds is the same as that of the superdrive on my 1.25 factory spec 15” pb running 10.4.6.(always has been region1) On playing the dvds in dvd player, the sound is very quiet, and you can hear a slight hissing noise (picture is fine). However, if I set the balance of the speakers in system preferences to the left (as far as I can) the sound becomes louder and the hissing disappears. Hence the sound is normal, other that the fact that it is unbalanced. The same happens if I set the balance to the right. Hence the hiss is only there when the balance is set to the centre or around it i.e. slightly to the left or right. This problem is true of all the dvds in the set.
Fair enough, the nypd discs are defective.
However, I then played them in a standalone dvd player without any fancy sound settings etc and no problems at all. Hence I then thought that the problem was with my pb - the only different thing I have done lately is use handbrake to put some of my other dvds (not these NYPD ones) on my iPod, so I thought that handbrake had done something (although I don’t know see how it could have done anything). However, today I tried some other commercial dvds in my pb (produced by the same company) and they sounded fine as has been the case for over two years. Hence, there is something about the nypd blue dvds which affects the quality of the sound output in my pb when the balance is centred. However, whatever this is it doesn’t seem to bother standalone players, nor is it something that anoth of my other dvds have.
Any ideas on what exactly is going on here, as it has me stumped.
(I don't have any other season of nypd blue, so I can't see if these have the same problem as well.)
Thanks

Cyberlink Power DVD 8 no audio

I have a pavilion dm3-1040us laptop running Win7, purchased new in 2010. At the same time I bought a LG optical auxiliary drive
model GP08NU20, which came bundled with Cyberlink PowerDVD8 software.
The software autostarts when a DVD is put in the drive, the video plays, but there is no sound. I have done everything I can think of to debug it, including working with Cyberlink's customer svc. I sent them the diagnostics file and the response was "upgrade your audio codec driver". problem is, the laptop HAS the most recent drivers installed, according to the driver update I tried.
Driver Name: stwrt64.sys
         Driver Version: 6.10.6242.0000 (English)
      Driver Attributes: Final Retail
            WHQL Logo'd: Yes
          Date and Size: 8/2/2010 08:17:23, 500736 bytes
            Other Files:
        Driver Provider: IDT
ANy thoughts on Cyberlink? I read on other boards they shipped "bundled" sw that didnt run on the HW. Are they erroneously blaming it on the HP/IDT SW?
Windows Media Player, and VLC both play the video and audio fine.
Help!?

Audigy 2 ZS and Power DVD 5 Surround Sound Questi

I am a bit new to home computing so any help would be appreciated. I am using an Audigy 2 ZS with Creative 7. speakers. I have connected the "spdif" cable from my Audigy 2 ZS to my DVD Rom player.My question is this - when using my Cyberlink Power DVD player,if I select the audio option to use my "spdif" will I get all the surround sound options(dts,dolby digital 5. etc.) to work even though it says that my current version of Power DVD(version 5)does not support all these sound options.Does the spdif connection to my Audigy card mean that it will decode all the various surround sound options regardless of what my DVD player can decode.

I?d recommend you to upgrade to WINDVD 6 or PowerDVD 6 (WinDVD is better). but if u can't...
If u want to use 7. channel audio with PowerDVD 5,these are the things u need configured:
) Speaker Settings Panel: 7. speaker option selected.
Digital Output Only disabled.
2) Explorer --> Control Panel --> Audio HQ --> Device Controls --> Decoder --> Settings --> Enable Dolby Digital EX and Enable DTS-ES Matrix 6.
3) PowerDVD 5 --> In the Speaker settings select the SPDIF Output option. (In this case, the software player sends the digital signal through spdif to the soundboard and since the soundboard has Dolby EX and DTS-ES built-in decoding).
This SPDIF option doesn?t mean that u get ONLY spdif output (although u get it) but that the signal is processed by whatever "thing" (software or hardware) is receiving it, instead of being processed by PowerDVD.
Hope this helps you.

Lost Cyber Power BLU-RAY/DVD Player Software

Greetings,
I have a HP Pavilion G7 Notebook, with Windows 8 that has performed well until I had to refresh Windows 8 due to a lost or corrupted file on my Device Manager. Everything went well despite loosing all my Apps, with no way to replace it easly. However I lost my CyberLink Power DVD/BLU-RAY that played both my Blu-Rays & DVD's. I have been unable to recover the software that plays both my Blu-Rays & DVD's. How do I get a replacement software to reload it back into my Notebook to restore it? Thanks!

No power DVD icon in my laptop (Lenovo G410)

Dear,
During the collection of my laptop after technical service recently, I told the staff-in-charge that the desktop is still short of Power DVD icon. There was such an icon before the service. He told me to download from the following link:
https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/IdeaPad-Y-U-V-Z-and-P-series/Lenovo-PowerDVD-10/td-p/1089661
PowerDVD 10 BD,
When I downloaded & extracted the file, it showed "This software can only be installed on a Lenovo system". Installation was unsuccessful. I think that could be due to a different model and series.
Mine is Lenovo G410 (model 20237). Where could I download the power DVD that is suitable for my laptop & display it on my desktop? Please provide a suitable link.
Thank you for your assistance.

I downloaded the free VLC player which is able to play the DVD in my laptop. Earlier on, when I searched for Cyberlink Power DVD from Windows Store, a price $14.99 (free trial available) was displayed in the website. I think it is only free during the trial period.

Power dvd included not running- need mod help ple

when i first installed my xfi, power dvd installed but didn't seem to do so properly. all i see in start menu under creative labs-soundblaster xfi-
is 'get powerdvd' with the generic windows icon for an unrecognized app
when i click this i get:
"to play dvd, please upgrade your version of powerdvd player from cyberlink. would you like to check for an available upgrade now?"
when i click yes powerdvd crashes
i deleted the cyberlink powerdvd from add remove programs and rebooted, then
found the 'getpowerdvd' under the repair option, so i reinstalled. still having it crash though everytime i answer yes to its prompt to upgrade my version of powerdvd player.
to clarify- is it a trial version only of powerdvd that's included with the xfi? the xfi box implies it is the full version.
jason or any other mod- could you please pm me with a link i can use to download the full version or at least a working non trail version of powerdvd, since the current one isn't working? thanks
i have an xfi xtremegamer, which i just registered, thinking that might be the problem.
