AsianScreens does not guarantee playback of DVD titles we ship on all brands/models of DVD players. We recommend, however, that they be viewed using DVD players that meet both of the following criteria:

you are using DVD software such as Intervideo WinDVD available at www.intervideo.com or Cyberlink PowerDVD available at www.gocyberlink.com DVD movie times listed on our site are approximate. Please note that movie components such as special features, multiple-angle shots and photo galleries do contribute towards DVD movie lengths and thus, perceived differences in the actual length of a title may be a result of not accounting for said components.

Yes. HD DVD players have been designed to be backwards compatible with regular DVDs so your existing collection is not obsolete. In addition, HD DVD equipment will allow upscaling of a DVD image up to a resolution 1080i/1080p for maximum visual quality.

To play DVDs in Windows Media Player (version 9, 10 or 11) you need a MPEG-2 decoder that is capable of decoding DVD video and is also compatible with WMP. The K-Lite Codec Pack contains a compatible decoder. Some examples of compatible decoders are: Cyberlink, DScaler5, InterVideo, MainConcept and nVidia PureVideo. There are two types of MPEG video, MPEG-1 and MPEG-2. The most common one of these two that is used in .mpg/.mpeg files is MPEG-1.

How do I get a cool icon like yours? Obviously "cool" is subjective, but you can have your own icon displayed here by signing up for a gravatar.

No. To ensure playback you?ll need a dedicated HD DVD player, XBox360 with add-on HD DVD drive or a HD-Rom drive in your PC.

DVDs are categorized into 8 regions dependent upon geographic location with the last two regions reserved for special applications. Onkyo DVD players sold in the United States can only play back region 1 DVDs or ??all region?? DVDs that are not region specific. The following list is a breakdown by region. Region 1 United States, Canada and the U.S.

In short, no. The only way you will be able to play DVDs from the UK, which is Region 2, is if your DVD player allows you to play all regions. There are some DVD players that allow you to cheat, and play all regions. Sometimes computer DVD players will play all regions. But, unless you know specifically that your DVD player will play all regions, you are, unfortunately, out of luck.

The new DVDs will be compatible with the vast majority of existing consumer electronics DVD players worldwide. This process requires discussion and testing in addition to the development of a new video specification from the DVD Forum. For example, a study had to be undertaken to confirm the compatibility with existing DVD players. It also takes time to complete physical disc specifications for the new recordable DVD media.

Yes,they will work worldwide.We only sell music DVDs and such DVDs are region free and run worldwide.

Assuming your player supports the DVD-R format and has been manufactured no earlier than mid-2002, we suggest inspecting both the DVD and your player for dust and then try playing it again. Actually, sometimes it is just the mere act of reinserting a DVD into your player that will make it viewable since it may not have been properly balanced in the drive the first time.

Most titles purchased from AsianScreens can be played on CD-R-compliant DVD/VCD players. Please note, however, that we only guarantee playback of all titles via PC and are not responsible for inability to view our titles on so-called "CD-R-compliant" DVD/VCD players. For a partial listing of DVD/VCD players that are CD-R-compliant, please visit VCDHelp.com at http://www.vcdhelp.com.

We record our slideshow movies on high quality DVD+R discs. Our DVDs will play on more than 99% of all current DVD players manufactured after the year 2000 with the exception of Mintek brand DVD players (which are no longer in production). Back to top

Over 98% of DVD players on the market support our DVD format. If you purchased your player in the last 2 to 3 years, you will have no problem playing your DVD in your DVD player on on a computer that has a DVD drive. If your DVD and it does not work with your player, simply return the DVD to us, and we'll exchange it for a VHS copy.

Most newer DVD players will play the discs we create without a problem. We maintain a list of compatible players. If you have any doubt about the ability of your player to play our discs, please contact us and we will check your player against our compatability list.

Yes, however, a Karaoke DVD Player will usually have additional features such as microphone inputs, key changer, and echo control.

The DVDs that we create are burned on DVD-R media, which is compatible with the majority of home DVD players. To check compatibility for your specific player, visit http://www.apple.com/dvd/compatibility/ or http://www.dvdrhelp.com/dvdplayers.php.
