  • How can I play a DVD movie?

    First day with Win8.  Found Autoplay, which came with no selection.  Chosen ' ask me Everytime "for the DVD in the drive removable, rebooted, but no dialog box appears as I close the player.  Vista Windows Media Player had no problem on this laptop.  Thx for your suggestions!

    Hello

    Windows Media Player 12 will play no longer DVD discs or files for licensing reasons.

    If you are running Windows 8 Pro, you can get a free Activation from center of the media until January 31.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/feature-packs/

    Media Center WILL read DVDs and will also allow the media player to play video files more... but not DVD.

    If you do not Win Pro 8, you need the upgrade pack to Windows 8 Pro that contains Media Center.

    The only other option would be a 3rd party player and set it as the default value for the DVD.

  • How to play a dvd movie in another language

    original title: how to play a dvd movie

    Hi all.

    How can install you media player to to play movies in English, which is not English. even online and offline

    E-mail address is removed from the privacy *.

    I have windows 7 32 bit

    If I understand you correctly, simply insert you the DVD in your drive, when the autostart window opens, choose WMP. The DVD begins and you can select English via the Set Up screen, like you would if you use a home player.

    If there is no option to select a language or you don.t see English in the list of available languages, then you're snookered. You can't conjure it out of thin air (or via the web)!

    But then again, I can not fully understand your request. If this is the case, re-post as more explanatory.

    can someone tell me how can I play a dvd on a DVD data?

    Hello

    Which DVD Player did you? An internal drive for laptop DVD or a DVD player which is connected to the TV?
    What files you want that play you on the DVD player? Photos, Audio?
    As far as I know, you can use a burning software Nero. This software supports a lot of different modes of DVD burning. In addition, you should check what media DVD does support the drive.

  • Satellite A200 - 13 M: I can't play a DVD protected by Securom

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite A200 - 13 M with a drive TSST TS - L632D DVD (Firmware TO-04) and Windows Vista.
    I can't play a DVD protected by securom.

    I made an update to Vista, my PC BIOS, but it still does not work.
    If I use an external DVD drive, I have no problem to read DVD protected by securom.
    I don't know what to do to solve this problem. She seems to have no update of firmware for this DVD player/burner.

    Help!

    Hello

    I have no similar experiences, but please check if the service called "Securom Services" is active. I'm sure it must be deleted somewhere in the registry.

    In another forum I found something very interesting. Maybe he can help you. Check it out.

    + Crash day - and a warning +.
    January 27, 2006

    + Atari has released a playable demo of a game called Day of Crash. It is similar to Need for Speed: Most Wanted in many ways, but the goal is to destroy the other cars to missiles and miniguns, or do crazy stunts. It's very fun and seem to have some potential - see my screenies, thoughts and tweaks in this thread. +

    + Now, here is the part of the warning. Without wanting to be too dramatic, Crash day demo uses SecuROM copy protection system. It is very annoying and may cause problems on your computer. You can avoid the installation of the demo, or if you install it and then eventually want to uninstall and remove SecuROM, including "SecuROM User Access" Service, it installs under Windows, follow these steps: +.

    + 1. Uninstall the game as usual. +

    + 2. Manually remove the game directory (usually \Program Files\Atari\Crashday-+ demo\)

    + 3. Go to start > run and type "Services.msc" (without the quotes) and press ENTER. +

    + 4. Access the "Securom User Access" Service, double click on it, click on stop and then set Disabled. +

    + 5. Navigate to the \Windows\System32\ directory and delete the file UAService7.exe. +

    + 6. Go to start > run and type 'sc delete useraccess7' (without the quotes) and press ENTER. +

    + Note: Ce Service can be re-created by one of your other SecuROM games, in which case you will have to work to play. +

    + The following steps are very risky and only to those who is certain none of their currently installed games use or need of SecuROM: +.

  • How can I add a DVD movie legally bought to my library of movies to iTunes?

    How can I add a DVD movie legally bought to my library of movies to iTunes?

    I'm afraid you can't. Almost every DVD on the market contain programming to avoid to copy you, for obvious reasons, and it opposes copy into iTunes. When you buy a DVD you do not buy a license outright to do what you like with the content: you buy the right to read this DVD on your own player and television (and not in front of an audience or an oil drilling etc etc) - you do not buy the right to make all the copies at all for some reason any. Legally, it would be real audio CD, it's just that they are old technology (1982) and at that time, there was no possibility of anyone copying digitally in all cases.

  • 580 Sony can't play my DVD-R.

    Hi all
    I bought BDPS580 yesterday (Canada). And I was shocked when he refused to play all my DVD-R, DVD + R, DVD-R DL... in other words of archive video the whole family. Of course, they were ok with my old DVD in Russia drive and no problems with playback by readers of DVD of our parents in Russia.
    At the same time it plays DVD and my CD - R.

    I did the DVD-r with the usual structure (I only did ie area - ALL) and they burned by NERO. I've copied one of my DVD-R to memory USB flesh - then is gone to the video folder on the player - it plays a menu without pause or stop, but he plays VOB etc. So I guess that the problem is related to the burning of format...

    I have no idea what to do. How can I check my DVD-r for formats etc.

    Any suggestions welcome?

    No one can answer me? OK, I'll answer by myself.

    I brought my Sony 580 in a store for test (Future shop) and personal and began to test the player. Drive is OK and we have tested my DVD-r on Sony 380 - he can't play my records too.
    But we were all surprised when the blue players Toshiba and LG could play ALL my discs without any problem. So no one can explain it. Personal store informed me that I have call up Sony and describe this event. I decided to just write it here.

    If the SONY official present here. -You may think that it is my complain to the company SONY.

    At the end I just changed SONY to another brand and that solved this problem.

    Thank you for the attention.

  • my laptop can not play American DVDs

    How can I go on the American DVD play on a UK laptop?

    Hello

    DVDs have a region code assignment. Change the region code can be up to five times.

    You should consider an external DVD drive (set in the region of the United States).  LG used to make a hard drive (laptop?) that would change the code of the region up to five times, then you can reset it.

    This DVD site might have the best suggestions.

    Change the region code is one of the questions and the PAL format might be another.
