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.

For Video CD, your DVD player must be capable of playing VideoCD 2.0 discs. Check the specifications page in the instructions included with your DVD player to see if the VCD format is supported. Your DVD player must be compatible with the type of DVD or CD disc used to record your title. Many DVD players are not compatible with some brands of -R, -RW, +R or +RW discs. Your DVD player must support the speed at which you burned your media.

To fix this you need to configure Windows firewall to allow ports 6970 through 6979 UDP protocol through the firewall. To open the ports see the section "example of unblocking an application" in Technote 1003 but instead of adding an application add a port and start with port 6970 protocol UDP.

We test all new DVDs before sending them to our clients to ensure that they are not scratched or otherwise problematic. Unfortunately, we cannot issue refunds for DVDs that we have worked on for you and tested. (If there was a technical glitch in the transfer or slideshow that we didn't see that was our error, we will happily redo the disk for you.) We do not offer this because VCDs are a much lower quality format than DVDs.

This could happen for several reasons. The first thing to check is that Boom 2000 is working -- if you can control your MP3 player or the Boom display on the screen responds when you press a button on the remote, you're OK.

All of the videos on Channelv2 are streamed through a Flash player, so you need to have the latest version of Adobe Flash installed on your computer. To download it, please visit Adobe This could be caused by a number of things. First, you'll need a broadband connection with at least 256+Kbps for the best viewing experience.

You can get the latest Flash Player at Macromedia.
