Yes, it can absolutely play DVD movies, view/write and burn to multiple format CD's and DVD's.

Yes as long as it's connected to a PC running the proper DVD player software. This is not a stand alone DVD player.

Yes, but you need a third party software to play DVD and blu-ray, it comes with a Cyberlink bundle, to do this trick.

Sure, if it's connected to a PC or laptop with the appropriate software to view a movie (I'm assuming a movie on DVD is what you mean).

It should be able to, it reads everything thats below a Blu-ray disc. This type of drive is just really advanced DVD drive.

I guess you could. But it's size may be too big meaning the platform by which the DVD player would test on

I have played with a third party software, Blu ray movies. So it should also play DVD movies too.

No you can't. Just a word of caution! Do not buy this device. It's a waste of money. It is not compatible with most DVD's regardless of the format. It will not play 9 out of 10 DVD's. It's a pure waste of money! This is an honest objective unsolicited candid opinion without prejudice. After all, I'm still stuck with the trash.

It can read standard DVD and CD disks. Not sure if a DVD-RAM is a special format.

It can be connected directly to dvd player, IF it has an input. Most DVD players don't have input, so the answer is no.

Ideally, yes you would be able to. Just not in the same format( e.g. One mp4 one DVD). However, my second screen broke within days. I was on a road trip and unable to return it. I don't recommend this product due to low quality.

its can play dvd and videos you just need the software that can play that format

It should read standard DVDs just fine. If you are trying to watch a digital movie, it has to be in MPEG-2 format.

I have used it to burn DVD's but it does not support all formats of DVD's. I've had several DVD's that I wanted to watch on my computer but the format was not supported.

Only if it is an external dvd recorder/player, check the compatibility for software version, and operating system supported. Good luck.

I'm guessing you can install a 3rd party DVD viewer. For ripped dvd's, you can watch with XBMC or some other media player I believe.
