Portable DvD player with USB?

rutteger1

I need a protable dvd player that has a USB port to view photos on- can you recommend a good/cheap one?

Answer
This is not a DVD player, but it might suit your needs better. Its called Cinepal, and it's made by Aluratek. It's an 8.9" mp4 player with 4GB of storage that has a USB port for flash drives and portable hard drives, an SD card slot and no DVD player. If you know how to rip DVDs to divx or MP4 or other formats, you may find this an attractive alternative, as it has a great picture and is much lighter than a DVD player.

They sell it for $164 but it's available elsewhere for less. Tiger had it for $120, but I don't think that's valid anymore.

Tech question on portable DVD player!?

Mike

Ok, so I have a portable dvd player that has a cigarette lighter plug and I want to know if I can get an adapter or a cord so that I can plug it into wall outlets instead. It has a 9.5 v power source.

Answer
Yes. RadioShack among others, sell 9.5 volt ac power adapters that come with a set of adapter plugs that will fit most devices. Most flee markets have used ones though finding the right plug may be hard to find if the
jack on your player is non standered. also check online for your player as the OEM may have one.

Jessica

like the question says. preferably blueray but it doesn't matter if its not. can you please include a link if you know of any netbooks like that

Answer
Generally they have no optical drive at all, let alone built in the case. You need to buy a USB optical drive and DVD player app (might come with drive).

dvd burning help?

nikhil b

i have a lot of files in mpg,avi or dat format which i wanna convert to dvd format,compress them and put all of them on a dvd.. the way they put 3-4 movies on a dvd... can someone help me on what software i need and what i should do.. thanks

Answer
well, theres alot of divx capable dvd players for cheap these days that requires no converting ... but the easiest app to use to convert is winavi ... dont use nero its slow and sucksass for converting ... although u can add multiple avi movie-length files to a winavi single-dvd convert, ther are 2 problems ... one, winavi doesnt make menus so the movies will just play sequentially or have to be fastforwarded to get to the next movie, and two, if you put more than 1 movie on a dvd the quality will be reduced ... when u get to the point of 3 movies in dvd format on a disk the quality level dips to below vcd quality which is bad if your tv is large ... the bigger the tv the more noticeable the quality ... anyway ... if you want to convert avis and put them on a dvd with good quality and a menu heres my method ...you need the ffdshow codec installed on ur machine ... use canopus procoder2 or tmpgenc to convert and u need to use mpeg layer2 sound and keep the video bitrate to about 2500 ... after you have the movies converted to seperate dvd mpeg files use a dvd authoring app to make menus and buttons and settup how you want it to play and add titles, background, music, ect ... tmpgenc dvd author is a good one to start with ...
