Toshiba WL768 - BBC HD picture dropout

I am experiencing frequent picture drop-outs (i.e. black screens lasting about 1- seconds) while watching BBC HD on a Toshiba WL768 TV. The sound is fine. Is there a firmware upgrade or anything else that can solve this issue please? I am aware of sound drop-outs with BBC HD and Sony TVs.
Thanks!

Last week, I bought a Toshiba 37RL853B Freeview HD TV. Generally the picture and sound quality are really good. However, on BBC HD, there are frequent (what appear to be) drop outs lasting a fraction of a second and these are becoming irritating. I have a brand new high-gain aerial and the HD quality is otherwise very good.
Do I have a faulty set, or is there some other reason for this?
Any advice would be appreciated,
Bill

Toshiba Gigaframe Q80 - no pictures from memory card

Hi all,
my Gigaframe Q80 doesn't recognize a Memory Stick Pro (Sandisk Ultra II 1GB) and doesn't load any pictures. Nearly the same problem with a Sandisk micro SD (6 GB) which is in a SD adapter. The frame recognizes the card but doesn't load the pictures and the menu entry "copy pictures to memory" is inactive.
Is there anything else I did forget? The pictures are in the root directory of the memory card. Any memory cards that work?
Thank you for any hint
Best regards
Frank

Hi
On this Toshiba page http://www.toshiba-multimedia.com/ you can find some info regarding this Gigaframe Q80.
It seems that the Gigaframe Q80 supports only jpeg and bmp as picture standard.
Furthermore the frames memory card slot seems to support -SD, SDHC, MMC, MS, MS Pro, xD cards.
Did you test other cards? If not check it!

Toshiba Regza 42rv530u - no picture

Hey all...was hoping you could assist me with an issue. My Toshiba Regza 42rv530u flat screen recently stopped displaying an image. The TV functions fine otherwise - meaning that I can turn it on and flip through cable channels and hear the shows playing, I just can't view anything - the screen is just black. The LED is a steady green. Does anyone know what the issue could be, or could you point me in the right direction? I'm trying to see if this is a quick, cheap "do it yourself" fix or if I should just get a new TV. Thanks in advance. Jason

I'd first try turning it off and unplugging it from power for a few minutes. Afterward, reconnect the power and try again. If the problem persists, it would seem to be a hardware issue. You'd need to seek servicing. Unfortunately, I'm unable to recommend a home repair.

Toshiba 50HP66 TV - no picture

I have perfect sound but no picture. There is a black screen which keeps flashing every few seconds as if it's trying to display a picture but nothing comes up. The green light on the front of the TV stays lit and I have tried unplugging the power source but that didn't fix it. Any thoughts??

Try leaving it unplugged from power for an hour. If there's still no change, it may require servicing.

TV Tuner Qosmio F10-125

I have just taken delivery of an F10. Excitedly I connected the jack at the back of the PC to the ordinary Arial and searched for the signal by auto scanning using the media wizard. No signal was detected. I tried using the RF analogue signal from my Sky digi-box that must be a good a signal as one can get. Still nothing. In both cases the co-axial cable was carrying a healthy signal as evidenced by the TV happily playing all the channels on the cable from both sources
Any one know what to do? or is this wonder Qosmio F10 a joke!!

Hi,
I don't have the PC in front of me ... it's my son's and presently several hundred miles away, so I'll have to do this by memory (which at my age isn't too reliable, so I apologise in advance if I mislead anyone.
>> By MCE do you mean media centre?
Yes - acronymn for Media Centre Edition (which takes far too long to type).
>> How does one use the QosmioPlayer tuner? I don't understand F2/setup??? I've tried pressing F1 then F2 but nothing happens.
With the G10 (and I don't know about the F10) you can start up Qosmio player without booting the PC (by pressing the TV button at the back of the keyboard area). Initially (i.e. without setting up the tuner) I got pretty much a blank screen. Pressing F1 brings up a window with a set of options in two rows - one of which is F2 - Setup. After pressing F2 it didn't take much effort to find an option to do an AutoScan which worked very easily and in about 2 or 3 minutes, I think.
Once this ran through I found that valid signals were distributed fairly randomly through the 1-63 possible channels - I can't remember the numbers exactly but BBC1 was at channel53, Channel 4 at 27 and so on.
You can tinker with the settings such that when you select Channel 1 on the main TV player, this actually shows Channel53 (or whatever) so you can configure it for (say) channels 1- 5 to reflect the more obvious setup.
Having got this under control (more or less), I then went back to try Media Centre - configured the TV Tuner to PAL/Secam manually and could then find regular BBC, ITV etc ... again scattered at random channel numbers across the tuner. I've no idea how to rationalise these .. and I think someone else has asked this question on the Forum.
I used a decent rooftop aerial to plug into the Toshiba ... the pictures for ITV1, Channels4 and 5 are perfect, BBC1 and 2 are poor. Not sure why this should be so since they're OK on my regular TV - maybe someone wants us to watch the adverts!
That's about as much as I know, I'm afraid.
>>Still waiting for a phone call after 3 days.
You have my sympathies ...

Satellite P300D-110 integrated webcam is not functioning properly.

Hello everyone,
as the title says, the integrated webcam of my Toshiba Satellite P300D-110 is not functioning properly. Allow me to explain. Using the Camera Assistance Software I can take photo's and record music. If I try to record a video the preview screen turns up black and the end result tuns out black aswell, completely black.
Whenever I try to use my camera with applications such as MSN Live Messenger, Skype or at community websites using Firefox, Internet Explorer or Safari the application in question crashes.
*How did this happen?*
You tell me. This is how it went;
* Day 1: I've started up my laptop and looked at my fresh and clean install of windows vista home premium. I tried out my webcam using the webcam assistance software and it worked like a charm.
* Day 2: Once again I boot up my laptop and try to start my webcam only to find out that it no longer functions.
To give a quick summary of the thread;
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can take pictures.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can record sound.
* Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can _*NOT*_ record or preview a video.
* I can not start my camera using any other application such as but not limited to; MSN Live Messenger, Skype, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safar.
* I have downloaded and isntalled the latest drivers from the Toshiba website.
* My laptop is about a week old.
I'm not sure what more I can do, all I want is for the webcam to work, if anyone can help me out please do so.
And if possible WITHOUT having to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium.
I haven't even used it and wouldn't want to make that a solution for all the problems that might occur in the future.
Sincerely,
a sad customer.

Using Camera Assistance Software provided by Toshiba I can NOT record or preview a video.
Can you please describe the steps how you try to do this? I must ask you this because it runs well on my notebook. When the recording is finished player opens and you can see recorded movie. It is avi format and at the top of this player you can see the path where the movie is saved.
Most strange thing for me is that you cannot use it with Skype. Ok for MSN is not the perfect but there is absolutely no problem with Skype. Check the settings and it must work somehow.

LAPTOP UNABLE TO DISPLAY WEB CONTENT CORRECTLY

I will try to be clear and brief.
I own the Satellite L675-S7048 laptop. I utilize a makeover site in which you can upload your own picture and actually change your own hair color. The problem is this:
On the Toshiba laptop with Windows 7, the "change your own haircolor" option doesn't work. I thought it was a problem with the website. My old HP Laptop with Vista, however, IS able to display the "change your hair color function". My HP is over five years old, the Toshiba a year old. Do I need to change a setting or upgrade something so the hair color function will work? I don't understand why the function doesn't work on a new, up to date laptop, but does on an older one.
Thanks,
Fran

Please read below, then read this. UPDATE! This is strange but *may* help solve the mystery for someone who is saavy on this. The pictures that I uploaded and used the "change your hair color feature" on the OLD HP laptop WORK on the new Toshiba laptop! The pictures that I uploaded onto the Toshiba laptop originally I cannot utilize the "change your haircolor feature" on it. I hope this is clear. Why is this happening??
I have tried using the site through Mozilla, IE and even AOL. Doesn't work. I really think it's the computer. Could it be the site works better in either XP or Vista? I think my old laptop has Vista. My new one, Win 7. What about a different flash player download? (Free of course).
Also, someone mentioned that I should be able to change Windows 7 to work as XP or Vista??? Is that true? And how would I do that and then switch back to Win 7?
Thanks.

Trouble with output to tape in PrPro 14 with AJA Kona. Win7pro64. Output to HDCam (HDW-F500), prerolls and parks until reference is cycled. Won't do an audio only insert edit.

I have downloaded and installed the latest drivers from AJA, but am still having trouble outputting to tape.

Well, this is admittedly making my head spin, but would it be possible, with that level of frame rate mismatch, for recording to even take place? The deck was definitely set for 23.98 and PsF (that's what both the indicators said).
At a point of boiling frustration, I performed an Assemble Edit (instead of the typical Insert, after I blacked a tape). When doing that - just for the heck of it - the recording went on for 83 minutes, it gave me a Lost Lock with 1 minute left in our end credits. I then rewound the tape for about 60 minutes and played. Got a Lost Lock in 20 seconds with a picture dropout.
Since you're familiar with the deck, does this seem at all plausible? Does this feed your theory about a frame rate/communication mismatch?

Toshiba 20AF45 has Black/White Picture

Hello I have a Toshiba 20af45 TV that is not showing the picture in color. I have both a 3 color av cord and the 5 color one.
I've tried to see if I can change it in the menu settings but there is no av input button. The menu under colorstream only allows me to change it from dvd to dtv. I do have a cable box as well attached to the tv.
Any help will be appreciated.

Is yellow video connector connected on the right place on your TV? I think you must connect it on the left side.
Check the pic I send you.

Changing picture mode playing movies from USB on Toshiba 46TL938

Hello,
i tried to play yesterday a movie from the USB on my Toshiba 46TL938.
Unfortunately the the playback had a lot of opera effect and surely i did not see anywhere close
the 24p playback.
On my TV i have the clearscan completely turned off, but it seems the toshiba media player uses its own settings by default. On my computer, the movie played without any problem, so the file was totally fine.
I finally ended up connecting my computer on my TV in order to watch decently the movie.
Do you have any suggestions about this?
I could not find any extra setting that would resolve this problem.

The user manual provides all information about the usage of TVs Media Player (page 65)
http://www.toshiba-om.net/LCD/PDF/English/TL938-4046-English.pdf
During playback, you can adjust the Picture and Sound menu functions from the Quick Menu
But these items are different depending on the current mode.
Playing movie from USB the quick menu does not contain the same items like when viewing a TV programme or pictures from the external input Single Window or 3D Single Window

Picture Tweaks/Calibration for TOSHIBA 32C100U 32" LCD

I just bought and hooked up a 32" LCD TV from Toshiba, model C100U and am looking to get help with calibration tweaks in order to achieve the best picture and performance possible. I'm hoping someone will be able to provide assistance...fingers crossed...
TV Info: http://www.amazon.com/Toshiba-32C100U-32-Inch-Black-Gloss/dp/B0038JED6M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=12919...
I've noticed that at I see some brief red-hued ghosting/picture lag on occasion in my picture; this has happened both with basic coax cable connection and when watching a DVD. I am a graphic designer with a very sensitive eye for detail, so this bothers me, while others may not even notice it; nevertheless, I'd like to alleviate it if at all possible. Is this normal? What can I do to fix it?
Thanks in advance!

My parents have a 37-inch Toshiba, I have experienced the same problem when watching movies via the Dell laptop. It happens both in VLC player and Windows Media Player, and I am using a VGA cable to connect to the TV. The problem was still there when we used an S-video cable. It sounds like it might be something about these Toshiba TVs.

Toshiba 39L4353DB - picture settings

Hi all,
could anyone advise on the best picture settings for this model. Most reviews say set to Hollywood day or Hollywood pro settings but even with adjustments to contrast & brightness controls the picture seems too greyed out. The standard setting is about the best I can get but seems too vivid for my liking.
The auto view setting is too dark, dynamic too bright. Anyone out there with this model who give some guide what they have set their set to. I have had two previous Toshiba televisions & have given excellent service with no trouble but I feel the picture settings were far superior to the current 39L4353DB.

As Im not mistaken there are three (beside the Dynamic and standard mode) additional picture presents: Hollywood Night, Hollywood Day and Hollywood Pro
Hollywood Night and Hollywood Day mode should be used in different ambient light settings.
Hollywood Pro default values seem to be very similar to Hollywood Night but Pro supports additional auto-calibration function.
But its not easy to provide the best picture settings because this depends always on different factors for example; device which is connected to TV, environment, viewing habits, picture source and quality
I would recommend you to download some basic full hd test images and to calibrate the TV for your own proposes.
Maybe this thread could be helpfull too:

Can't see full picture on Toshiba Regza 42HL67 TV with HDMI

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Regza 42HL67 TV. When using the HDMI connection between my cable box, I have Comcast HD cable with a Scientific Atlanta 8300HD digital box, the TV doesn't display the whole picture within the screen. For example, watching a baseball or football game, the TV doesn't display the score section for the game as it is outside the screen. I have tried changing the picture size by selecting all of the different sizes available but no luck. If I switch to standard A/V cables, it's not an issue.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance,
Jeff

If changing the pic size on the TV doesn't help, you might also check if the cable box has picture size settings. If not, you should call customer support.
