Let’s just forget the whole weak dollar thing never happened. Would any of you red-blooded Americans do this? Let’s assume that they’d cost $4 apiece here, not $6.44.
#DIVX DVDPLAYER TV#
I’m guessing probably not, with all the On-Demand and Apple TV stuff. The DVD-D discs are available in Germany currently and may or may not make it stateside. There appears to be no DRM (digital rights management), so you couldcopy the disks, if you’re quick enough. After 48 hours (or longer, depending on the price) the DVD gives a ‘No disc’ error when put into a DVD player or PC. The process begins as soon as the discs are removed from vacuum-sealed packaging. Or not, who knows?Īnyway, whereas DIVX relied on special DVD players that could play DIVX discs (and also regular DVDs), a new disposable DVD coming from a German company called DVD-D will supposedly work in any DVD player, will cost €3.99 ($6.44 US) and will expire in 48 hours.ĭVD-D Germany Ltd’s ‘Einmal’ (German for ‘once’) – discs incorporate a self-destruct chemical coating to render them unreadable after a pre-set time. A similar idea just might be able to succeed where DIVX failed. So, if anyone can please kindly suggest some makes/models of players which will allow me (and the original poster) to play DVDs with multiple movies in AVI format, it would be greatly appreciated.Remember DIVX? Not DivX the codec, but DIVX as in Digital Video Express - from Circuit City - the ill-fated self-destructing DVD system from lo those many years ago. I know there are DVD players which also use this type of interface when playing AVI movies (assuming the player supports them - mine does not). My DVD player opens up a similer 'explorer' type window when I play a disc with different folders containing MP3 files on it, allowing me to navigate through it and select what I wish to play.
what are some models of DVD players that can support this function? I heard XviD players recommended in here, so I shall look into those. so it just makes perfect sense to do it that way, as it saves both time and space. plus, you can fit a lot more onto each disc. It’s a LOT quicker than having to recode them to various formats to play them on most traditional home DVD players. for example, you can fit about 6 regular movies in AVI format (at about 700MB each in size) on a standard DVD-R. He is looking for a DVD player that will support AVI files, multiple files per disc. I believe what he is asking, is the same thing I would like to know (searching the net for an answer is what led me to this thread).
#DIVX DVDPLAYER MOVIE#
This is the only way to do it unless you convert the movie to vcd, in which case it will fit on one cd.
You can get them on E-bay for around $50 Aus. If you wish to play smaller files, go and buy a Divx compatible dvd player.
To be played in non Divx dvd players, the file must be convered to a larger file format, as this is the industry standard. This is the same principal as Normal Audio tracks and MP3s. DVD players are connected to a television to watch the DVD content, which could be a movie, a recorded TV show, or other content. Some DVD players will also play audio CDs. Tjis is why dvd movies are on dvd not cd.Ī avi movie is a compressed movie file format, usualy Divx or Xvid. A DVD player is a device that plays DVDs produced under both the DVD-Video and DVD-Audio technical standards, two different and incompatible standards. Dvd movies (comercial ones) are encoded to TS and vob files, which are alot larger than avi files. The reason they get larger in size is because of the file format. anyone know another way to convert avi files to DVD files so they dont get larger in size?
I dont know of any DiVX player, but i do know that if you want to burn avi files that are playable on the everyday DVD player, you have to use NaroVision and wait 7 hours for the stupid conversion and the avi files get like.5 times larger, so you cant put a lot of them on a DVD.
