[LIB] Review: Kohjinsha SC3 - By Jenn K. Lee
Date: Sat, 23 Aug 2008 22:09:12 -0700 (PDT) From: Matthew Hanson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Review: Kohjinsha SC3 - By Jenn K. Lee Browsing information on Kohjinsha today came up with a pretty well done review of their SC3 model SC3WP06GA: http://www.pocketables.net/2008/07/review-kohjinsh.html I was wondering about the quality of Kohjinsha notebooks, but most of what I’ve read so far has been pretty positive. As far as support, CNET Asia has this comment in a review of the older Kohjinsha SA1: http://asia.cnet.com/reviews/notebooks/0,39050489,40768322p-2,00.htm "The Kohjinsha has little to offer in terms of support, with only system drivers available for download at the Web site. There are no phone helpline or technical support email, and any hardware issues will have to be resolved by the distributor." Something significant I neglected to mention that I read on that EBay auction is that the screens in new Kohjinsha UMPCs (UMPC© Microsoft: Ultra-Mobile PC) are relatively readable in sunlight. At least with respect to what we’re used to. Here’s another pocketables.net page with pictures of 6 brands of UMPCs out in the sun: UMPC display comparison: Sunlight visibility: http://www.pocketables.net/2008/08/umpc-display-co.html#more The pocketables.net forums look like an excellent alternative to this list these days: http://forum.pocketables.net/ If Toshiba does ever come out with a competitive UMPC, it’d be a great alternative to this list. There’s a 'parent' forum there dedicated to UMPC Mini Notebooks: http://forum.pocketables.net/forumdisplay.php?f=6 And a sub-forum devoted to the Kohjinshas: http://forum.pocketables.net/forumdisplay.php?f=72 There’s a thread in there on the new Kohjinsha 8.9" SX series with the built in optical drive: http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?t=320&highlight=Kohjinsha+SX But it’s been waiting over a week now for feedback from jcb who reported having just received his. While browsing the forum there, I found mention of an interesting looking 235(W)x180(D)x28~42(H)mm Gigabyte M912 that sports an Atom 1.6GHz CPU and HDD size availabilities of 120/160/250 GB: http://forum.pocketables.net/showthread.php?t=410 http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Notebook/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2835 An interesting looking device from HTC called the Shift: http://www.htc.com/www/product.aspx?id=1160 And though it’s 10” wide notebook, and pathetic at 2 hours battery life, at $500 the MSI Wind with a 1.6GHz Atom CPU is an interesting looking little beast: http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=4498 Even though there’s little discussion about them here, there’s sure no shortage of competitors for the mini-notebook market out there these days. On the size discrepancy of the SX3KP06MA in the EBay auction I mentioned in my last post, I overlooked the obvious. The SX3KP06MA on EBay is in fact listed on Conics as being the same notebook as the SX3WP06MA, with the 'K' standing for black model, and 'W' standing for the white model. So the auction’s dimensions of (W) x 155mm (D) x 25.4~33mm (H) are in fact wrong, and should be 233mm x 191mm x 22-33mm as Conics specifies for both of those SX3 models.

Good to know you didn't fall off the edge of the world down there in Ozzyland. The list sure has been dead. But I guess everyone still onboard has either played out any issues long ago, or like me, is just curious what might be popping up. And the Kohjinshas look to me the best replacements for our old Libbys than anything I've ever seen. An old Lib sized notebook with a DVD drive, a relatively fast CPU, reasonable memory, et al, looks great. > I've got the eee 900, very nice little machine and the > 20GB model (4GB > inbuilt SSD on the motherboard + 16GB plug-in installed) > was less than > $500AUD with Xandros Linux (which quickly got the boot in > favor of > Kubuntu) ... I read where Asus has a 900 series model coming out with essentially all the same components as this, but with the Intel Atom 1.3MHz CPU. I see Amazon is now selling your model for $439.63USD after a $100 rebate. http://www.amazon.com/Eee-PC-900-Display-Battery/dp/B00191PKJK > the SSD is nice in that you don't need to worry about > thumping it around although it is a bit creepy in that you > can't hear or feel the hard drive going ...

O_o Goodness knows how they manage to fit all that in ... Okay... I'm hooked Raymond. I've done some reading. There are a number of models. And it's frustrating that there are new models being sold online that aren't even listed on the Kohjinsha website. Here's Conics offering: http://www.conics.net/catalog/index.php?currency=USD They list SR, SC and SX lines there. But if you click the specs dropdown on the Kohjinsha website, they only list SR, but then SH and SA lines. http://www.kohjinsha.com.sg/ Also: * The TV tuner is useless, as it only works in Japan * The GPS is only available on specific models. * There seems to be no model with both GPS and a DVD drive (space?) The R8KPO6A on Conics is listed as measuring 233 x 177 x 33mm even WITH the DVD drive. That's amazing to me. The 110s are 210 X 132 X 35mm. http://conics.net/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=229 But the SR8KPO6A only has a 800MHz Intel A110 processor. However the SX3WP06MA at Conics has that Intel Atom 1.3MHz CPU you mentioned Raymond.: http://conics.net/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=298 Now of course I'm immediately thinking, are they working on a SR8KPO6A 233 x 177 x 33mm sized model with the Intel Atom 1.3MHz CPU? Somewhere along the way I found this EBay Kohjinsha auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/Kohjinsha-SX-SX3KP06MA-BLACK-ATOM-UMPC-built-in-DVD-RW_W0QQitemZ230282949939QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item230282949939&_trkparms=72%3A552%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 Also in the Ebay store here: http://stores.ebay.com/KabaTek-Online That auction shows a Kohjinsha SX3 model SX3KP06MA with the Atom 1.3MHz that from the pictures looks identical in size to the SR8KPO6A over at Conics. But something's wrong there. The specs on the EBay auction lists the dimensions for the SX3KP06MA as 189mm (W) x 155mm (D) x 25.4~33mm (H). That can't be. I've seen this on EBay before where a seller will use the same picture when selling 2-3 different products in then same basic line, say SX here, but that are different specific models. Like the SX3KP06MA in that auction, and the SX3WP06MA from Conics... the difference between the two being the 4th character where the W and K are transposed. I've written the seller about the discrepancy, and I'm guessing the SX3KP06MA in that auction is going to end up having the same dimensions as the SX3WP06MA on the Conics site. I hope I’m wrong though! I’m still at a loss for an explanation for why Kohjinsha has newer models being s

Well Avi... I've got good news and bad news. The good news (for me) is that after 3 days of playing 3 ~2 hour DVD images in W2K, I didn't get a single BSOD. The bad news (for you) is I didn't come up with any data that might help diagnose your setup. I did experience a couple of problems, but I wasn't able to determine the causes. Day 1: Played a 2 episode DVD. Each episode ~2 hours. 1st episode played through and returned to the title menu unattended. The 2nd episode was playing for more than an hour, but at some point before I checked in the next couple of hours, the system had rebooted for some reason. But that's happened from time to time with the L110 just playing MP3s in W2K through my Echo Indigo. Maybe heat. It just shut down today because of heat. Day 2: Played the same DVD. 1/2 way through the 1st episode 1st episode I pulled the power cord and brought the L110 with me on a drive. That episode ended on the drive, and I started episode 2. Somewhere along the way the system shut down when the battery got low. Day 3: Everything went flawlessly. I played 2 different ~2 hour DVD images, one of them twice making about 6 hours of flawless playback. They were concert videos, and I actually paused playback several times. Now I didn't do any fast forwarding/reversing, navigating chapter and extra menus. It seems that's where I've run into playback problems in the past. But the only BSOD I've seen since you told me to set the screen resolution to 16 bit was when after doing that, I reinstalled and ran Margi. I've uninstalled and reinstalled it several more times since then, and everything has been working darned well. I was having a problem with my mouse, which was why I tried uninstalling Margi. But I'm sure the mouse problem was unrelated. My case is broken at the right hinge, and I think the ribbon cable is the source of the mouse problem, as I wiggled things and the problem went away. I'm also pretty sure that the colored vertical lines on the edge of the screen that Librettos are famous for are due to faulty connections through that ribbon cable.

That was it, but not before a bit of BSOD shock treatment. I reset that after I 1st read your post. But I immediately got the BSOD when the Margi player popped up. I didn't even try again for a cfew more days, remembering what you said about not being able to get Margi to work in W2K because of BSODs. The next time I slide the Margi card in, W2K couldn't find the driver and popped up a "New Hardware found" window. After getting that ironed out, Margi now does run pretty well at the 16 bit screen resolution. As long as I don't do too much in the way of pausing, fast forwarding or fast reversing video playback.. I can usually play a video through. But I do still get the BSOD from time to time. Did you say you can't play video at all, or can't play it for very long before having that problem? Funny beasts...

From: "Avi Cohen Stuart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The margi dvdplay.exe doesn't need that much memory. The whole dvd play with the margi works with kernel streams that connect 'pins' together. The app says 'play' and a whole orgestra of kernel thingies start to push a lot of bytes into the margi which does the HW decoding and streaming it back via Zoomed Video into the graphical card memory without the processor intervening. It took me some time to find the option to enable the ZV port in W98SE. which is in the advanced setting for the Yamaha volume control. The only issue with the margi is: how do I get the DVD stream with a sustained of 5Mbytes/s into the margi. Don't need much RAM for this, only speed. It works also under linux 2.6 but the X application needs to be enhanced a bit more but menus, display etc work. Avi. (Trust me: i know the margi dvd-to-go inside out...)

So it worked with the base 32Mb and a disconnected card or it didn't work with either 32 or 64Mb of ram?< By "a disconnected card", I'm guessing you mean that the MARGI is inserted into the Lib, but is disconnected from any external DVD drive... right? If so, yes... I only play files copied onto the Lib's HDD via a network connection to my PC. And yes, the MARGI processes video playback from ISOs as well as MPEG-2 .mpg video files fine from the HDD with just the 32MB of ram. I don't have an external DVD drive. But again, the performance is unpredictable. Sometimes a movie will play from start to finish with no problems. Other times itll freeze 23 times or more.

From: Philip Nienhuis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I was reading Philip's page on setting up W2k on the 110, and was wondering if I ought to try disabling SFP. But it seems he was dealing with SP2. I've got SP3 installed, and will probably upgrade that to SP4. I don't see any info on disabling SFP in W2K SP4 though. I ran SP4 on my Lib, maybe even a "SP5" a la Fred Vorck. Fred Vorck's pages are also based on SP4. And yes, disabling SFP makes a huge difference, no so much for RAM usage but rather for starting up / shutting down times. I reinstalled W2k to address a problems with my Echo Indigo sound card on my 110. When I 1stgot it, I was a few days trying to find a workaround for audio playback stopping in the middle of the 1st MP3. I found that if I let W2K boot and load ZoneAlarm, then start Winamp, and then shut down ZA, I could get MP3s to play continuously. Silly me, I thought if I just disabled ZA from loading at boot, I'd be able to get Winamp to play MP3s throught the Echo properly. But the ZA workaround was the only thing that got continous playback. Then suddenly even that workaround stopped working. I reinstalled W2K after trying everything I could come up with. In the process I found my 32MB expansion had stopped to be recognized in BIOS. That got me back to the workaround to get MP3/Indigo playback. But its never been reliable. Within 4-6 hours of play, Winamp will still stop playback mid-track, and usually requires a reboot of the system 2-3 times in that 4-6 hour play time. Theres plenty of system resources, 35,342K total at boot and then 5696K more after Winamp loads. Id think 64MB RAM would be able to deal with that. Cant quite figure out whats locking things up . Maybe a memory conflict somewhere. Any idea whats going on there Philip? I was very close to going the Vorck route before I found the loose RAM.

I just discovered my 32MB RAM extension card has been loose, and hasn't been recognized for a few days.

Im worried that if I reformat and reinstall W98, W2Ks boot loader my not be able to see the new W98 installation. W2K is installed on a ~4GB primary partition as C: .. and W98 is installed on a ~4GB extended partition D: after the W2K partition. There is a blank space of ~100MB following D:, and a ~72GB E: extended data partition after that. I see Phils still reading the list messages (is the server is working), and hope he might now how this might work. It's not simple as you may ruin the W2K boot stuff. This is the wrong installation order (W98 should be first, then W2K, but now you need to do it in reverse order). I did indeed install W98 1st onto the 2nd, extended partition. That, because the last time I did this I installed W98 on the 1st, 'primary' partition, and it seems I had problems when I had to reinstall W2K which had boot files installed in the C: W98 root. Should I have installed W98as the 1st primary again? Make sure you can somehow boot into W2K from CD-ROM. That will allow you to (in a later stage) use the recovery console to run fixboot etc. I never did that BTW, so others may have better ideas. I actually just booted from a W98 boot FD, and installed W98 1st from installation files copied earlier to the E: drive. For the W2K installation, I ran smartdrv.exe after running the W98 boot FD, and put it on the 1st primary drive. Perhaps I should have done a bit more research before that. Is it imperative that I boot from a CD? (In a PC?) Which should be on the 1st partition? If that's OK, simply reformat D: and reinstall W98. Then reinstall W2K's boot stuff by booting from the CD-ROM (using the four floppies IRC) and then do something like repair or recovery console . It's not that hard, I just forgot how and what exactly. I've gone the 'recover' route before recentlyv via running winnt.exe from file on E: in the past. CD-ROM not needed? BTW I do not read the list very often. My Lib is decommissioned, just occasionally it's started up. A guy at work has expressed interest in buying a 110.

Don't know if I need to go that route yet though. Removing IE before you even install Win2K (like Vorck describes) will eliminate some 20 MB RAM usage (paged out or in RAM). That surely helps to eliminate startup time and paging (trashing the hard disk when starting applications). It will also decrease the footprint of Windwos Explorer (which is intimately linked to IE). From what I remember (I do not use my Libby anymore these days) my IE-less Win2K (SP4) ran with acceptable responsiveness (for a 233 MHz / 64 MB RAM PC), even with AVG anti-virus & ZA. I ran even OpenOffice on it (very slow to start, once loaded it's fast enough tho). But e.g., Acrobat reader took ages to just scroll up a page in a 10 MB document. I'm still wondering if I can find how ZoneAlarm gets memory dedicated to it at boot, and maybe apply that process to Winamp... and/or some system setting(s) that specifically control memory for audio outside of the actual pieces of software that decode MP3s and provide the audio output. Obviously audio playback is piggypacking memory set aside for ZoneAlarm that remains available after ZA is shut down. But how to just disable ZoneAlarm booting, and assign that memory to the right places so the Indigo card can playback without doing any gymnastics after W2K boots?

I have a memory allotment problem with this Indigo IO I need some feedback from someone familiar with how Windows manages this. I discovered that this Indigo WILL indeed play audio on my 110 properly, but under odd circumstances. I need to leave ZoneAlarm set to load at boot in Windows 2000, and then shut it down after a c,mplete boot in order for the Indigo to play audio without freezing. That usually happened after anywhere from 1 to around 120 seconds. I can only guess that the Indigo is able to take advantage of the RAM set aside for ZoneAlarm even though ZA is shut down. This happens no matter what media player I use, WMP, WinAmp, FooBar2000. Anyone know if RAM memory allotment can be set manually for a specific program in Windows 2000, maybe under a service somewhere?

Anyone try them?

I notice you reference problems with the server relatively often. I would be curious to know why you believe Dan's server is messing up? I have not experienced any failures in more than a year and back then it was repeating messages. I save all emails from the system and from what I see by looking at the page, I receive all emails at all times on multiple addresses. Everything that posts to the system, slow or not, I get at my email addresses. Hi John, I addressed this problem in a recent post. I've been keeping in contact with Dan about this problem for years now. He has problems with SPAM clogging up the list server on a regular basis, and then for whatever reason, the server starts dropping a few registered email addresses here and there from its subscriber database. So it only affects some list members, and not others. I've just been a watchdog for Dan over the years, and am usually the 1st to notify him when I don't see mail coming into my Hotmail account that's showing up in the archives. I haven't really discussed the specifics of the problem with Dan, but I suspect the server software somehow targets mail from list subscribers with Hotmail and Yahoo email addresses in particular as being SPAM amongst the zillions of real SPAM addresses from those services. I usually get a thanks from him every time I send him a notice, and the same explanation about SPAM having put a cog in the wheels of the server. Hes been meaning to set up new software for some time. But with the number of posts to the list per day/week having dropped to an all time low at this point, maybe its just not worth it.

Really too slow to run much more than Windows 98SE, which is what I'd recommend. Very stable, runs decently, but try to up it to 32MB RAM total. Also, you may want to look into using only IE5.5 (somewhat faster than IE 6), or Opera for the web browser. Also, try not to install to many apps - eg Virus scanners, etc. I'd go with AVG Free or a light McAfee VScan 4.51 + ZoneAlarm 2.6 era for the protection. Also, 98Lite is a program to consider if you really want to trim it down some more. --- Anything higher than 98SE is really too much for 32MB of ram and the slower L70 processor, IMO. For Win2k, I'd really have to recommend at least a 64MB L110 at the very minimum. Anyways, that's really all that these machines were designed for, and the limited RAM really hinders the use of much more. CPU speeds aren't that great, even if overclocked, so don't stick too much on them and they'll run just fine. adorable toshiba libretto The latest news and information for the Toshiba Libretto owner. http://www.silverace.com/libretto/ Don't get soaked.

The posts appear mail-archive.org. It can be a combination of a different mime encoding and our over-aggressive and over-zealous mail server (Exchange) which removes stuff sometimes too much. I've corresponded with Dan a lot about this in the past many years... and it seems that excess SPAM gets the list server mixed up.

That's really odd. We both have similar Librettos, are using the same W98SE OS, ostensibly are using the same drivers... but it works for me and not for you. I wonder if comparing driver files in the same manner Avi & I compared Stream.sys files would help. I'm not that technically savvy, and can't find any referent of them in Device Manager, but these seem to be the related files: Pwrsave.cnt Pwrsave.cpl pwrsave.exe Pwrsave.hlp Pwrsave.ico Pwrsave.vxd And it looks like the Toshiba driver package was named: L100ctrl.exe I can't seem to find any other Toshiba driver package in my archives that contains the same power saving files specifically for the 110. And I have L100ctrl.exe filed in a folder labeled: * 100CT W95 Toshiba Windows 95 Controls & FDD drivers Toshiba never maintained a consistent method for naming their driver packages from one Lib model to the next which can be frustrating as all get out. And it seems I had to install the W95/100CT driver package with the power saving files onto my 110 to get power saving working properly. > >Have you checked the data transfer rate from your PCMCIA external HDD > >to the Libby's HDD Michael?

Ah yes... remember the experience with all the fond associated angst... 8-O I don't mean to sound so harsh to Windows and IE or other modern programs, but I learned to program back in the days of the Z80, Commodore 16's, 64's and Vic 20's Tandy's etc. It is amazing how "big" everything has gotten. Compare the game F19 Stealth Fighter which was written for a Commodore 64 originally. 64K, yeah. The PC version was around 400K. And when you got a newer PC, old programs written in machine code would >scream!< That is what I mean. There isn't much optimizing these days as there isn't much reason most of the time. If most people have Pentium 3's and 4's with a Gig of ram, most programmers are going to target those systems. You don't always need a faster computer, just a better program and or OS. ;) There are new programs that look like they're written in Visual Basic that just bug the heck out of me. I can always spot them by the web style appearance of the standard MS menus that have a less defined, less crisp look to them... eg: File, Edit, View, Help menus and submenus. Those programs, Firefox for one, are usually resource suckers. I tend to dump the idea of testing them until I've run out of alternatives that might work better in their place. Another thing I noticed was a 50+ meg drop in physical memory per IE browser opened with eBay. That tells you how much the processor is dealing with. Ouch... Another indicator the slowdown is processor/system based is that I notice even slight choppiness (no freezes though) now with these same sites at the same points with a Pentium 2 machine. This is with Windows 98SE, 512Meg of ram, one browser window open and over 350 meg of RAM free, No virtual memory in use AND this particular machine boots with 95% Resources Free. (I think even my Libretto is at like 78% free after boot) Pretty cut and dried to me. Why no virtual memory John? I've always found Windows to be at it's peak when it manages it's own virtual memory. Case in point has been when I ran my free HDD space down to 125MB, and this Margi DVD-To-Go card started stuttering. It really seems to need that virtual memory.

If you are playing a movie on batteries only, you may find that you have no audio. If anyone finds a 'get around' for this audio issue on full power mode only let me know... Michael... I found 2 options about disabling power saving in DVD-To-Go's settings that were set 'on' by default. I diisabled those two opitions (not sure the difference between them), and was able to configure my own custom settings for when the system in powered by batteries. Seems ot work fine so far. I set the LCD brightness to the lowest setting, CPU speed to the 1/4 point which seems to have the most affect when playing video. I also only had one tiny hitch getting the card working in W2K. For some reason after installing the drivers, my W2K popped up the 'New hardware found' window when the card was inserted. I could have unpacked the drivers from the zipped archive, and pointed the direction to it. But I unstalled the Margi drivers, unpacked the full driver/program archive to a folder, inserted the card, and then pointed the system's 'New hardware found' popup to that folder. First the drivers were installed, the system beeped acknowledging the card's insertion, and then the software installation window popped up for installing the DVD-To-Go playe. The driver/software package has an audio glitch in W2K which is documented in the program's readme. For some reason in W2K, it can't output audio through any notebook's internal circuitry. The recommended work-around is to connect an audio adapter cable from the output RCA jacks on card's dongle to the notebook's audio input. Problem there is that the 100/110 libs only have a microphone input jack. But a pair of headhones connected to the dongle works pretty well, as does connecting the output to a PC's external audio system. The signal on my test DVD ISO was pretty weak through the headphones, but listenable. Powered headphones might be nice when using W2K. While W2K is incrediably slow for most purposes, one thing it does far better than W98 is to almost double the 10/100 ethernet file transfer speed with its 32 bit OS over the W98 16 bit OS. I've been really frustrated since my USB2 PC card died. At one point I thought it was transferring large files from the PC to the Lib faster than the 10/100 ethernet connection. But at some point I noticed that was only in W98. I found the PC/WXP to Lib110/W2K ethernet transfer rate to average the same as when doing transfers via the USB2 to USB2 SIGG Superlink cable. I've got to >something< set up that transfers these big files faster than what I've got going now. I wonder if USB2/Gigabit adapters are available, as I have both in my 2 main PCs. Have you checked the data transfer rate from your PCMCIA external HDD to the Libby's HDD Michael? I'll bet it's faster than my USB2 external HDD to the Lib's HDD via a USB2 PC card. One last thing about the Margi in W98SE. When I was first testing DVD playback from the ISO files DVDShrink created, the system was really struggling. Video played pretty well, but the audio would drop out here and there. It took me a while to realize that I had run the free space on the W98 partition down to only about 125MB. W98's virtual memory was out of space and choking. After deleting around 800MB of IE and W98 temp files that had accumulated, the DVD-To-Go software worked >flawlessly<. I also managed to shrink the size of the original 4.35GB 'Dances With Wolves' DVD file set set down to 1.72GB with DVDShrink by: * Putting a small 7kb graphic file in place place of all video content in the 'Dances With Wolves' DVD VOB sets that wasn't part of the main movie with. * Deselecting all audio but the movie's main 5 channel AC3 Dolby audio channel. * Deslecting all but the English subtitles. * Setting compression to 'Custom', and dropping the percentage rate it down as far as it would go, which was about 47%. I can see no loss quality of the video playback on the tiny Libretto's screen. It looks near flawless!

If you are playing a movie on batteries only, you may find that you have no audio. I discovered that if you adjust the Libretto power setting (hairy light bulb) to full power mode, the audio is restored! That means inorder to conserve battery life, you have to turn down the screen brightness on the full power mode settings page. You can also turn down the CPU speed also to conserve battery life. Only on the lowest CPU speed does the video start to be choppy (unclocked 166Mhz machine). Its a shame that you do not have audio on the 'user' power setting, this would be great for a custom profile just for video playback. If anyone finds a 'get around' for this audio issue on full power mode only let me know... Thanks for the tip on getting VOB files to play with full DVD-To-Go controls Michael. I set up Daemon Tools and was off and flying. Now I'm thinking of running a few tests at setting DVD Shrink to higher coompression to see how small I can make the resulting ISO file set, and still get better output video resolution than that of the MPEG-1 files's I've been ripping my DVDs to. I'm a little surprised that you didn't seem to be able to create a custom power setting that allowed for audio playback. I'd have thought that would be a piece of cake. I'll have a look a my setup. How long have you been able to get your Libby to play DVD video on batteries Michael? I'll be interested to hear back from David Chien on whether or not he's going to try that battery pack rebuilding service.

The card works perfectly in W98SE/Directx 9.0c on my 110 by just installing the Margi software/driver previously referenced, and doing nothing else. The problem I was having playing a small test clip turned out to be the fault of VideoReDo when it created the clip. The resulting test video didn't have the infomation in it that let's the Margi card know it's the type if file it's been programmed to recognize. I can copy any DVD VOB file to the 110's HDD, and it will play fine. The only problem is that the DVD-To-Go player doesn't have a slider to allow pausing and specifying where in the VOB you want to start play again. If for some reason you stop play, you have to wait until the video reaches the point in the file where you left off. You can pause video play, and resume with no problems. I'm thinking of looking into two things: 1. Whether or not DVD-To-Go will only play traditional 1,073,481,728 byte VOBs and nothing else. 2. How to make my own MPEG-2 encoded files that DVD-To-Go . GSpot reports the standard DVD VOB file as using the MPEG2_Video codec, and TMPGEnc seems t only want to use MPEG2_payload. 3. If I can't get DVD-To-Go to start at a specific play time, can I split a VOB into a number of smaller ones. That'd depend on the answer to my question #1.

It took longer to track down a copy of the wdm1051063.exe Margi software/driver then it did to install it and get the card to play MPEG-2 files on the HDD. Youre link was dead Avi. Turns out I had Directx v9.0c on the W98SE partition of my 110 from a previous attempt to get the card working, and it seems you cant roll it back to a previous version. But I did have limited success at getting both video and audio to play. I first played a couple files captured with a WinTV card on my PC. One was the original MPEG-2, and the other an MPEG-1 file compressed down about 1/6 the size of the original of the type I usually make for playing on the Lib. Both have MPEG-1 Layer 2 encoded audio streams. And the audio for both plays fine through the Libs Yamaha sound drivers. But then I ripped a small section out of a DVD VOB to a 34MB MPEG-2 test file that contains the original AC3 audio stream, and I get no audio playback out of that at all. Now I havent found where to find the option to enable the ZV port in any of the Yamaha W98SE driver settings I can find. Im hoping that may enable the AC3 audio playback. If its because I need Directx v8.1, Ill have to start over and install a new copy of W98SE. Where did you find the ZV port setting in W98 (SE?) Michael? And Avi, did you use the Margi wdm1051063.exe software/driver package in W2k? One thing I was wondering about has been dramatically demonstrated The quality of the MPEG-2 video ripped right from a DVD VOB is incredible. Close to photo perfect on the little Libby screen!

I'm assuming the MPEG-2 files >have< to be sharper. I've been working more with AutoGK recently, and have been playing various XVid encoded captures through a PC DV port to an HDTV. It's interesting to see how small AutoGK can make a file and still retain quite the same quality as it does at settings that result in much larger files. I've been using the Bincsoft Bitrate Calculator to calculate bitrates for MPEG-1 encoded files in TMPGEnc so they'll all fit on a 4.5GB DVD-R. When the resulting videos get displayed on the Libby's little screen, I sure can't see any difference between 850kbps - 1100kbps encoded files. But the quality of MPEG-2 video playback on a Lib is something that hasn't even been discussed to my knowledge (just checked archives to confirm that unless Ive messed something). I think you guys are the first to really get the Margis up and running, and able to do tests on. So while it'll be fun to see if I can duplicate your successes from the work you've put into this, I wonder how practical it'll actually be to play MPEG-2 encoded files on these old under-powered systems with such a limited portable battery source. The battery in my 100 went south a couple of months back. And now I see the one in my 110 is only powering the system for 35-45 minutes with power saving options maxed The Margi has to suck a lot of power. So Im wondering if you guys are going to be able to play an entire 90-120 minute DVD (from file or DVD disk) before using up the charge in the Libbys battery. Even with a rebuilt battery pack as David is looking into, I wonder how long these systems will me able to process all that data through the Margi. Matt _ Fixing up the home?

Michael Heathcote (quoted above and below) indicated that he got his up and running in Win95 with only the small hitch of having to replace the driver Win95 loaded with the proper one that came with the card! Seems that was the OS the margi card was tweaked for. And I'd guess Win95 was probably the lease resource hungry of the beasts that followed. From what Avi has been talking about, I'm not sure if he's running Win98 or Win2000 with the card. He spoke about replacing an existing Win98 driver with the same from Win2000... and I assumed that meant his Margi card was working in Win98. But from Avi's dialogues with Phillip, it sounds like he's got the card working in Win2000, or both Win2000 >and< Win98. So I'm extremely tempted at this point to dig my card out of storeage, set up Win95 on my 100's 20GB HDD, and do some testing myself here.

I've been a member of this list for over 6 years or more, but I have not used my 50CT for quite a while since buying a Portege 3490CT. The main problem of the 50CT been lack of 32 bit cardbus & USB with modern peripherals. While surfing on ebay last week I noticed a 100CT going for a good price with only a few minutes left, an impulse bid and I won! For only 87 pounds I now have a 100CT, std & extended batteries, standard dock, enhanced dock, power supply & floppy. Well pleased! Unmodified standard clock speed, original HDD but unfortuately only the on board 32MB RAM...you can't have it all I guess!!! Now a few years ago I bought a Margi DVD-to-Go card with dongle for my Portege, but at the time I did not realise the Portege was not Zoom Video supported, so the card has not been used. Today I gave the card a go in the 100CT, and after reading many posts over the years with people not been able to get the card to work in the 100 or 110CT, I was quite shocked when it worked! Presently the 100CT is running windows 95 with only 32MB Ram running at 166MHz. What I did notice was that windows automatically loaded the incorrect driver for the card when first inserted and did not initially work. Updating the driver for the correct one from Margi solved the problem. Full screen seemless DVD playback & audio playing a DVD from my 16 bit PCMCIA 4x Argosy external DVD ROM drive. Amazing! Now that I know it works I am going to change the HDD for something larger and load Windows 98SE for the USB support. Hope the Margi DVD-to-Go card works okay under Windows 98SE! Now a quick question. Does it matter whether I use 100CT or 110CT drives for my 100CT? There appears to be more drivers available for the 110CT on the Toshiba website for 98SE.

Don't worry about the Libretto's design in regard to PCMCIA: it is a fully supported 32-bit Cardbus interface with even on both ports a Zoomed Video port (works nicely with the Margi DVD-to-Go hardware DVD decoder). Wow You got the Margi DVD-to-Go card to work!! I never got mine working. What's the secret? It works also very well with linux 2.4 and 2.6 btw. I also do own a PCMCIA USB 2.0 card and there is no problem with it unplugging devices. Note that the OS Meir mentioned is... windows 98... There lies the problem? Indeed, you need first to stop any USB2.0 devices and then the PCMCIA device.The W2K and XP drivers ask you that if you want to close the USB2.0 devices if you select the USBx.x PCMCIA card to be ejected.

Obviously, this requires a network card and ideally a second machine that can be used as server (though an internet connection might do). How did you go about enabling the network card from a boot floppy? A few years back David Chien wrote out the procedure for getting DOS drivers for an HP M820E CD/CD-R-ROM drive enabled from a floppy. I'm guessing the process to enable a network card is similar. I would not recommend even thinking about any of the "big" desktop environments a la KDE or Gnome. Back when Neil Barnes was on the list, he recommend the IceWM shell for a copy of Mandrake 7.1 he helped me set up on my L50. None of the windows managers I tried at that point could match the performance of IceWM. I just wish I was able to wrap my head around Linux to the degree where I could figure out how to get things set up without reading through endless manuals and man pages.

Re: [LIB] Two questions (USB & Battery)
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 17:02:19 + From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [LIB] Two questions (USB & Battery) From: "Meir Oktan" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Thank you for your answer. The problem is that I might harm one of my USB devices when unplugging them this way. There should be an application that allow you to stop a USB device in windows 98. Well, the operating term may be "should be." You indicated that you're plugging your flash drive into a PCMCIA card, which means you either don't have a port replicator/docking station with the USB1.1 socket, or you just want the faster transfer speed of a USB2 PC card. One way or the other, you're looking at a problem with USBx that may not have been envisioned back the 90s when the 100CT was developed, and 1st released in February of '98. Raymond and other list members know more about the inner workings of these Libs, but my guess is that starting and stopping PCMCIA devices may be dependent on the Lib's BIOS. In '97-'98 I doubt any of the Libretto developers at Toshiba ever guessed that at some point people would need to not only stop a PCMCIA device, but a USB2 device plugged into a PCMCIA device too. If they did, it may have been one option among many others that they may have dismissed due to timetable restraints in getting the product released and shipped. The list has been getting less and less active these days. Hopefully someone else may have some thoughts on this.

(Not wanting to start a flame war :-) but...) ...no, you do NOT really need EZ Bios or any other overlay, although for many users that seems an easier solution than simply avoiding DOS FDISK. This has been covered repeatedly and in detail in this mailing list. Except that we never got to the root of the conflict I was having with W2K's chkdsk and W98's scandisk differing in opinion on whether or not the same files on the same FAT32 partition had problems. chskdsk would report the partition as being free of any file errors, but scandisk consistently kept complaining about the same ones no matter what I tried to do to address the problem. The only possibility I can come up with is that I had copied the files on that partition from one drive to another so many times through several HDD upgrades, that there was some little character that was changed somewhere along the way that the two utilities didn't agree on. That may have happened when I had to use data recovery to retrieve lost data after a major HDD crash at one point. Since attempting to work that out a couple years back, I've been running an app called Beyond Compare to synchronize files on the Lib that I have backed up on the PC. Every once in a while I'll find that an MPEG-1 video file that I've ripped from a DVD sitting on either the Lib or the PC, doesn't sync with the backup I burned to DVD-R. Looking at a comparison of the data in each file, I found that somewhere along the way, probably in the DVD burning process, the 1 or 2 characters at the same positions in the duplicate files had been substituted for another. Out of zillions of data bits in the file, the differences don't affect any noticeable playback problem. But then this is in a multimedia file, and not in data that maintains a file system. Maybe someone with more knowledgeable on file systems might know if there's any possibility that two different OSs may on occasion write a different character to perform the same file structure maintenance. And if instances when the data is being recovered or burned to optical media might be the cause.

RE: [LIB] Libretto: Possible to mix different mAh cells?
Date: Mon, 30 Oct 2006 02:49:32 + From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: [LIB] Libretto: Possible to mix different mAh cells? There's been a lot of posts on the topic on rebuilding battery packs. Here's one I came up with quickly: http://www.technoir.org/libretto/list/2005/msg00270.html I'm sure you'll find a lot more if you search the archives. Somewhere I detail a method for opening the packs that I pieced together from other people's posts. One of the points of contention on the matter was one of safety, as LiIon batteries can explode fairly easily if not set up properly. For that reason I certainly wouldn't want to try mixing cell types, but I'm no authority on the subject.

Lee Heya Lee, That sounds right... But somewhere along the way in the past few years I thought I read that someone had put out a hack to enable uploading non-Garmin maps to their GPS's. But what about this statement from the OziExplorer home page?: http://www.oziexplorer.com/ "This is the official web site for the OziExplorer GPS Mapping Software which runs on your PC or laptop and will work with Magellan, Garmin, Lowrance, Eagle, Brunton/Silva and MLR GPS receivers for the upload/download of waypoints, routes and tracks and most brand of GPS receivers for real time tracking of GPS position (Moving Map)." "...upload/download of waypoints, routes and tracks" Also... I think the Lib server is messed up again. I just posted 4 messages, and only 2 of them came back. I'm not sure if this one will make it.

My little Garmin eTrex Legend has complete searchable streetmaps of New Zealand on it that puts the "official" Garmin "child's scribble" NZ worldmaps to shame.

I think both the standard and extended battery packs were only offered for the the 50/70 Libs. The standard battery for the 100/110s are the same size physically as the extended pack for the 50/70s. The model of my 100 pack is PA2503U, and is rated at 2400mah at 10.8v. There's 6 LiIon cells in it, as if the same for the 50/70 extended pack. Where the 50/70 standard packs only have 3 cells, and were usually rated at 1200mah. I think the only 3000mah packs were ones that people had independently rebuilt on their own.

RE: [LIB] Re: Memory Upgrade
Date: Fri, 07 Jul 2006 20:17:22 + From: "Matthew Hanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: RE: [LIB] Re: Memory Upgrade From: Ron Hahn EI2JP <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Lads, I have two L50s with 16MB that I would like to upgrade to 32MB. Does anyone on the list know the proper part number and where I might obtain two for a reasonable price? I don't know if I've ever known a part number, but the best place to the 16MB module is Ebay. Search for 'Libretto memory'. Adding '16' might narrow the field, but is probably not necessary, or maybe '50CT' or '70CT' (same memory). However, since memory for those old systems has become a bit rare at this point, the price has gone up substantially. I think the going price the last I knew was around $60. In years past you could get it for $25-$35. Wow... I see none on EBay right now for the 50CT! One Buy Now for $49.00, and a few at $72 for the 32MB 100/110CT module. New they can go for as high as $150 at Impact: http://www.impactcomputers.com/toshiba-libretto-50ct-parts-memory.html Looking at that page, I didn't know there was EDO, and non- EDO memory for Libbys, or that there were 8MB modules. I wonder what the diference is between the 16MB module that dosn't specify EDO for $150, and the one that does for $145. You might call them and ask, and report back here. Just keep checking on EBay. Good luck.
