Firstly, I tried plugging the hdmi cord into the DVD player, and other end into my laptop (as it has an HDMI plug), kind of like a plug n play type of thing; to which NOTHING at all happened. No sounds, no notifications, no change in "Device Manager", absolutely nothing happened at all.
Secondly, I bought a USB-C to HDMI adaptor (as my laptop also has a USB-C port), to which I have a notification that pops up every time I plug the adaptor into my pc that tells me "Display Connection Might Be Limited" (now this notification pops up every single time I plug in the adaptor, whether the HDMI cord is also connected to the adaptor, or not).
When the adaptor is plugged in, Device Manager also shows a new connection under "Universal Serial Bus Devices" called "USB 2.0 BILLBOARD". Which to my knowledge means that my device is able to enter DP Alt mode, it just isn't for some reason.
PS. Yes I have already downloaded VLC. It doesn't matter how I try to plug this DVD player into the pc, nothing is showing up in terms of files, or folders, or ANYTHING in file explorer at all! I keep thinking that it is just a drivers issue, I have already manually updated EVERY SINGLE USB Driver in Device Manager, and as for the drivers for the DVD players, I am just unsure of what I would need to download and/or how.
I can answer why the laptop cannot be used as the viewing solution. All of the HDMI's on the DVD players are outputs and all of the options for the HDMI on the laptop are outputs, also. Therefore the solutions you are trying will not work. There are other solutions to watch the DVD's but not using the monitor of the laptop unless you use a USB connected DVD drive. The stand alone players cannot be used with the laptop, they require either a TV or a monitor to view the output.
I went to Best Buy to find out how to hook up my record player to my laptop so I can play records and the guy gave me a "y" adapter cable and told me to plug it into my record player and the microphone jack on my laptop.
um, I did that, and now I don't know what to do, if anything. I went to Help & Support on my computer, to set up a microphone under Speech, but help and support wasn't showing accurate information as to what my computer was actually showing.
Then, you might have to go into your sound settings and make sure it's not muted, and you're able to record from it. Note that you'll probably need to buy software such as Roxio 5 Platinum (which includes Spin Doctor), or the equivalent Nero program, if you prefer Nero, in order to be able to clean up your recordings and split them into tracks. Do a search here, or on a search engine for more info.
Try this: double click the speaker icon to open your "Master Volume Control". Click OPTIONS then PROPERTIES then click on the RECORDING radio button. Make sure "line-in" is on the list an has a check next to it then click OK. Make sure line-in is unmuted and set mid-to-high. Now try recording.
I got it hooked up, but I can barely hear it. I messed around in my sound settings, but I couldn't get it much louder. I'm thinking maybe I haven't done something with the muting as you say, or perhaps I need a pre-amp (if you don't know that's a.o.k.)
ok, I got a pre-amp and that didn't work at all. can't even hear the record. however, without it I can hear sounds, they're just very tinny no matter how high I turn up the volume. same if I listen to them on my headphones.
I caught your reply to this question, and now I have one. You state that this some go to the "line in". I have checked my documentation on my Inspiron 8200 for a line in and don't find one. Can you shed any light on this for me.
Hello, You can connect your laptop to the network via Network Cable, and there wouldnt be tht stuffering. More over, i m also Connected to my laptops, pcs through wirelessly, i never experienced such delays or stuffering.
I am trying to get a digital copy of some cassettes using an HP laptop.I have tried pressing play on the cassette player, to record on Audacity, but Audacity does not show any sound. Initially I used an audio cable with 2 black bands on the plug.audio cable with 2 black bands (pictured)
I read an HP Forum answer that referenced this laptop jack which said "You'll need a dual band or double banded microphone/headset. The Envy 15 has a Headphone-out/Microphone in combo jack (compatible with 3.5mm 4-conductor jack with stereo audio and mono mic)". So I thought that I needed a dual-band cable with 3 black bands on the plug, because of the laptop jack being a combo headset jack, so I bought one of those cables online - see below (pictured).cable with 3 black bands
Your cassette player is low-impedance speaker-level out, TRS, stereo. Your computer is high-impedance mic-level input, TRRS, mono. Even if you got a cable made up to physically function, your level/impedance matching will make this sound absolutely abysmal.
Your source & destination are simply not a match.
If these are sentimentally important family history etc, then buy a cassette deck with a USB output which will marry nicely to your computer, saving a whole lot of "I don't know how this all works" audio matching.
Otherwise find a local service who can do it for you.
You will both need separate accounts, as the same MC account (UUID) cannot be in the same world twice. However, you will both need to play the same type of Minecraft as well as have the same version. For example if one of you is playing the Windows 10 Edition and the other the Java version, you won't be able to play together.
It's as easy as connecting to another player's world in Minecraft PE. One player opens the game to the local network ("LAN") through the ESC menu, the other one connects through the multiplayer list. This is possible because Minecraft for PC and laptop is the same thing.
While the other answers aren't wrong, I believe they answer the wrong question. If I understand this correctly, your issue is with knowing whether or not a desktop user can play with a laptop user. Most likely the question comes from the fact that Minecraft has an Xbox version that isn't compatible with desktops.
With that taken care of, yes, it is possible to play on a laptop with desktop players. That is because the computer versions of the game are all compatible with one another (All operating Systems can play with one another).
Yes, your son and you can play together with laptop and PC. Since both are working in same principle regardless the design/hardware shapes. All you need to be sure is, that both platforms are capable of supporting what Minecraft game requires as specs.
Regardless of what OS a laptop or desktop has, as long as the version of Minecraft is the same you're fine. The only case it wouldn't work is if you were trying to do it desktop/laptop with console/PE. As long as your server or realm is working properly there should be no issue.
I got a Roofull DVD player drive for my birthday last year, and I am now only starting to use it. It works well for certain DVDs, but for others it takes a while to buffer and read the disk. I tried putting in the Blu-Ray DVD for a DVD/Blu-Ray pack for the movie Dune (2021), which I just got for Christmas. The Blu-Ray has trouble being recognized, while the DVD can be recognized, but buffers a lot instead of playing immediately.
That the computer is weak - but it depends - could be either hardware or software issue. Though you can play videos fast as normal, this is not the case with external drives. As for example for video streaming the data goes from internet directly to RAM, but from the drive the data goes from USB-motherboard-RAM which is a bottleneck to take into consideration. You can try a different computer somewhere just to make sure that the video loads any differently.
If is not either about the drive-computer-software. Last chance is that the cable is somehow busted or snapped. It could potentially have some weak connection somewhere causing electricity to have noise (causes requested packets of data to be resent multiple times eventually).
I'm trying to figure out which graphic setting are best for me . when i choose medium setting they look kinda weird but when i run low they don't seem good enough. im currently running on very low graphics but i would love to know what the best graphic i can run with . or if there any upgrades i can make to my laptops !
You can hit ctrl-shift-F to display an fps (frames per second) counter in the lower left of the screen. You can then adjust things to see what has the most affect on fps (and, therefore, smoothness, etc.)
Using the on-chip graphics of a mobile i3, however, is not going to give you great performance. You'll probably notice that your fps is mostly limited by the CPU (i3) rather than the graphics settings.
So the only way is to connect this blu-ray player to a regular TV or projector? What about external blu-ray player that you usually find in a computer store? How would they have to be connected to the laptop and are they actually suitable for watching blu-ray films or rather made for storing data on blu-ray discs? I am asking because I had originally intended to watch blu-rays on this laptop and VLC seems to support blu-ray playback?
That would most likely be a Blu-ray drive as opposed to a full Blu-ray player. Those are usually connected via USB and require compatible player software. I know that VLC (if built with BD support) can play Blu-rays, but commercial titles are encrypted with AACS/BD+, and you need to provide the keys for those, which VLC cannot legally include.
There may be a licensed commercial BD playback application for Linux around (for DVD there were a couple as far as I remember).
