Wow, that's a strange one. You say that every other DVD you own/rent works just fine in your machine, eh? Sounds like some sort of copy protection deal going on. Is this perhaps a new release DVD (probably from Sony Pictures)? If so, there may be a CSS on there that will not allow the disc to play on a PC (supposedly to eliminate piracy, but really just aggravating to those of us that are gravitating towards media centers).\n\nTry a Copy Protection removal tool (I wish I could tell you the name of one. You'll just have to google it yourself) and see if that works. If not, call the manufacturer of the disc.\n\nSorry I couldn't help any more than this but I've never encountered this problem before.....

All DVD players support standard DVD video files, which use MPEG2 compression. The actual files that can be seen on a computer are found in a folder called VIDEO_TS and have the ".vob" extension (plus there are some other files for menus, chapters and stuff).\nSome DVD players also support different video formats, but you can't count on that for all of them.\n\nAlso, for best compatibility, use DVD-R blanks (not +R or RW)

it can be down to the disks, you actually use, not all dvd types play on normal dvds players, i have a jvc one which dont play cheap dvd r's i buy form a cheap supplier, but it plays sony dvd -r's, where i have a cheap £30 philips one and plays every dvd i have. you need to try searching the forums for your model and see what type of disks everyone uses. if you mail me ill see if i can find more or post your dvd player model

You will need to purchase a DVD drive for your computer to play DVDs.  It is not possible to play a DVD out of a CD Drive.  your best bet is to purchase a DVD drive or a DVD burner from tigerdirect.com or newegg.com for under $40, install it and then you will be able to watch DVDs

I hope this artice helps you in choosing an online store:\n\nhttp://www.consumercompare.org/dvdnew/?kw=gb+rent%20dvd%20online&gclid=CNa4iZPD44gCFSWaFQodkmeZpA\n\nI think an online store such as Netflix (which I use), is best, simply because online stores have a much wider selection.

ok... this is going to be a long one. First you need a fat second hard drive, at least 80gb (personaly I have a 400gb for this). Because half and hour of raw (un edited video) is about 10-12gb.  Next, you need to know what inputs you have on your system... USB would be the best choice, mostly, things with usb are just plug it in and install the software, its that simply mostly. Now, you should get a card that has RCA in (thats red yellow white), and from there you can hoook it up to whatever, as long as the whatever, has RCA outs...  now, an FYI. You should have a good processor, namley something up to date.. if your dell is a botom of the line older system, you can just forget it. but if its with in the last 2 years, you have nothing to worry about.   You need to have at least 512mb of ram, (memory)  A good FAT second hard drive, and well a dvd burner... MOST of them come with software, that holds your hand in makeing a dvd, they are called a wizzard.   Now, if you need direct help... feel free to e-mail, I am a computer service tech, and I bulid custom systems for just about every need, so I can tell you what you need, with out killing your wallet. and where to get it, AND BEST BUY IS NOT AN OPTION!

Multiple factors could be the problem:\n\n-The software you used to burn the DVD\n-The DVD, itself\n-The DVD player you're trying to play the DVD with\n\nI suggest downloading Nero Burning ROM to burn your DVDs. I've found it to be more stable than other programs out there.\n\nAlso be sure that you're burning the DVDs to the proper format that your player will support. Some DVD players won't play DVDs that are encoded for a different country's standard, for example. Make sure that before you burn the DVD, that you've looked up all the format settings that you're going to need to use.

Check to see if you have the proper dvd codecs installed.  This can be an issue, especially if you're using Windows Media Player.  Also try updating the drivers, either through MS or though Dell (since it is Dell product).  Also, if you have multiple dvd/cd burning programs installed it might cause conflicts.

if you only have windows media player istalled\nit wont play dvd or vcd`s,you need to install another\nplayer to act as codec`s , POWER DVD 5 is a good one.

The best one that I know is DVD x Copy but is kind of expensive but if u don't mind expend an extra $50 is worth it...\n\nstay away from the freeware they usually come with extra bugs, and spyware   (u get what u pay for)

PowerDVD is great.\n\nAlso, look into VideoLAN (VLC), that is a great video player too.

Another possibility is the quality of the DVD+rw .  I have experience many times certain DVD working fine in one player but not in another due to disk manufacturer.
