Yes, if your computer has the right stuff. The computer operating system or playback software must support regional codes and be licensed to descramble copy-protected movies. If the computer has TV video out, it must support Macrovision in order to play copy-protected movies. You may also need software that can read the MicroUDF file system format used by DVDs.

There can be a large variation in the storage required from one DVD movie to another, but an "average" DVD movie requires approximately 6.7 gigabytes of storage. Therefore, you can expect to store approximately 112 DVDs on a 750 GB Disk Cartridge and 150 DVDs on a 1 TB Disk Cartridge.

A single Kaleidescape 1U Server fully loaded with four 1 TB Disk Cartridges can hold approximately 450 DVDs or 5,000 CDs. A single Kaleidescape 3U Server fully loaded with fourteen 1 TB Disk Cartridges can hold approximately 1,800 DVDs or 20,000 CDs. The exact numbers will vary depending on the specific DVDs and CDs that you import. Larger collections can be accommodated by clustering multiple Servers to act as one very large storage system.

First, make sure your drive is a DVD-ROM. Next, you need a DVD decoder software. Unfortunately, there are some licenses required to play a DVD movie which comes with DVD player software so most of them require purchases. There is one free open-source alternative to play DVDs VLC.

an average bit rate of 4.5 megabits per second, a single sided DVD disc has the playback capability of 133 minutes of the highest quality audio and video images. That's nearly 92%of all Hollywood titles ever made! In fact, a dual layer DVD disc can provide up to 4 hours of the highest quality audio and video....on a single side of the disc!

Yes, we have DVD's available in the DVD-R format for American players only, also known as NTSC. We do not have plans to offer PAL format DVD's or DVD+R at this time. Please be sure your DVD player is compatible with the DVD-R format before ordering. This information would be in your owner's manual, probably within the first couple of pages. If you do not still have your DVD player's owner's manual, you might check the manufacturer's Web site. Please allow extra time for DVD orders.

No. Nintendo has confirmed that the Wii will not be able to play DVD movies. They're reasoning behind this is that most households have at least one DVD player already, and therefore adding DVD functionality to the Wii will only increase the price for functionality that many already have. However a premium version of the Wii is rumored to be able to play DVD movies

For some technical reasons, we can't rip protected DVD directly. but it will be works if you follow below step:

If you are fortunate enough to have descriptions related to each roll of film and you would like to put them in chronological order, please clearly mark each roll with the appropriate number. Otherwise, your movies will appear in whatever order we process the reels.

The Circle uses DVDs exclusively because the picture is better. The quality is practically flawless compared to the grainier VHS option. In addition, DVDs are more environmentally friendly and are less expensive to ship. Additionally, DVDs can be played on a variety of devices. Over the past few years, the cost of DVD players has dropped dramatically. You can now purchase a good quality DVD player for under $100.

You will need to install a DVD interface/decoding program. The Cyberlink Power DVD is included with your DVD. Install the software. Run the Power DVD programs from the start menu. When the interface comes up you will see a control dial on the right side. In the center is the PLAY button, Simply insert the DVD movie and allow it to spin up. Press the play button and enjoy the movie.

We offer a collection of feature films, documentaries, children’s films and more on both VHS and DVD.

In order to copy or “burn” the movie (.AVI files) from your "Shared Files folder" to view in your DVD Player, your computer must have a writeable DVD-ROM drive. Simply launch the converting tool and follow the steps given to convert your downloaded AVI. Then use the burning tool to burn the file created to a blank DVD.

Long answer: The minimum requirement for reproducing audio and video on DVD is an MPEG video stream and a PCM audio track. (Other streams such as Dolby Digital audio, MPEG audio, and subpicture are not necessary for the simplest case.) Basic DVD control codes are also needed. At the moment it's difficult in real time to encode the video and audio, combine them with DVD-V info, and write the whole thing to DVD. Even if you could do all this in a home recorder, it would be extremely expensive.

Why in the world would you want to degrade DVD's beautiful digital picture by copying it to analog tape? Especially since you lose the interactive menus and other nice features. If you really want to do this, hook the audio/video outputs of the DVD player to the audio/video inputs of your VCR, then record the disc to tape. You'll discover that most of the time the resulting tape is garbled and unwatchable. This is because of the Macrovision feature designed to prevent you from doing this. See 1.

The maximum time we recommend recording onto a DVD is two hours. This is to ensure the optimum quality of the transfer. The DVD disc itself can hold up to six hours of video, however picture quality deteriorates as you fill up the disc. The exception to this is in the case of 3-hour VHS tapes, when we will record a third hour for an additional charge.

In most cases - no. All DVD players are equipped with anti-copy circut protection to prohibit copying from DVD discs.

In theory, it's possible to record direclty a DVD playing it and pressing "REC" key on remote control. Unfortunately, for the moment, some jerks appear. Severals users don't have any problems, so we have to understand why. Thanks to all people for searching, and mainly to Sharknoir, Outitec, Claude E., etc... let us continue! You have to set the record quality to the maximum (XP) to have a faithful reproduction.

There is no DVD recorder (or DVD burner, for that matter) that can record in all of the above recordable DVD formats, however, SONY (at the time of this post) has introduced a PC-DVD burner that can record in DVD-R/-RW/+R/+RW and has also released a standalone DVD recorder that can record in the DVD-R/-RW/+RW formats. It may seem confusing to have to decide between all of the DVD recording formats. You are asking yourself: "Which one will become obsolete the quickest?".
