No, you cannot play a DVD on this machine, but it will reproduce a DVD player with a USB plug connection, as well as a pen-drive.

If you are asking if it plays the obsolete HD-DVD *format* that was briefly produced in 2006/07, the answer is no.However, all Blu-ray players will play *standard* DVD and upconvert them to simulated high definition.

No, it doesn't. You'd need to buy an external drive if you wanted to play DVDs through this machine.

Mine will play most dvd's. I've noticed that it will not play foreign made dvd's regardless of whether they are region 1 or region 0.

I can't seem to play DVD's. I load it and I just get a list of files. Do I have to install a media player?

I have some European dvds. I need to know whether this product will play them. (European dvds are in a different format from American dvds.)

More than likely. I bought my region 2 dvds from eBay and they play like a regular DVD would. As long as it isn't a bad boot leg copy, you shouldn't have any problems

Any kind.. it comes with a Blu-Ray Reader and DVD RE-Writer Reader, which means it plays Blu-ray and DVD media and can burn blank DVD media.

It plays everything exactly like a DVD. I have all the DVD menu and bonus features of my movies from the portable hard drive. I asked the same thing before I got it.

It plays only DVD format (I think they call it VR mode), not any other video. It plays MP3 music and displays JPEG. That's it.

As far as i know you can use downloadable programs and software such as vlc media player which allows you to play a dvd regardless of the region.p.s Im not a computer wiz when it comes to dvds but im sure with a few minutes of research you can come up with your answer.VLC Media Player-( http://www.downloadster.org/lp/vlc-player/354/?_u=8lgn9qing2ajg83bhfvbh70bappahscpb17bum2a2ko2lp9rs331-28238245d0382006e38babdfc4b8d8f6 )

According to the instructions Pioneer dv-2012k dvd player Can play DVD-R, -RW, -R DL and DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD+R DL discs recorded in the video mode and finalized, DVD-R/-RW/DVD-R DL discs recorded in the VR mode, Commercially available DVD Video Discs, Video CDs, and more The only Discs that won't play are: DVD-Audio discs, DVD-RAM discs, SACDs, CD-G, Blu-ray discs, HD DVDs, Discs that Have NOT been finalized, discs recorded with a packet writing, programs that can be recorded only once and that are already recorded on a DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD-R DL. So apparently it can play DVD9 Format Discs.

It can play a regular dvd.... It definitely can play jpg files off of a USB and it can play photos off of recorded disc as well
