Does this play a DVD, just to view

Yes, as long as its connected to a TV or PC (or perhaps a tablet, not sure) and you have a suitable playback program like VLC or Realplayer.

Only one DVD can be viewed. There is one unit that play the DVD and the other is a slave to the main.

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).

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

No. Just plug in the tv, turn it on when you want to watch a dvd just slide one in the slot and it automatically switches to dvd mode and plays. Simple.

I have no idea as we could never get ours to even play a DVD. I do not recommend this item. It is poorly made, and odds are it won't work. You'd be wasting your money.

Hello. This unit will play .AVI video on the front LCD from either a DVD, USB flashdrive, or an SD card.

No, it plays Blu-ray but burns DVD and CD's. You would need to purchase an external Blu-ray burner that connects to USB.

Sorry, I have never tried to play a dvd that I recorded myself. It seems like the process should be the same as the motion picture companies use to create dvds so my guess is that the player should read them.

I have only played regular movies successfully ..it would not play DVDs which I converted from tape to DVD.. Vod or mpg format

Yes, you can watch movies with this device. You need to have software on your computer that will play DVDs.

No you have to hook up a tv to see. You can hook it up to a DVD if your DVD can record.

No, it doesn't. It's a really thin laptop, about halfway between the size of a Macbook Pro and Macbook Air (with the Air clearly being too thin to accommodate a DVD player. If you have either a movie or game you want to play, either download a digital copy (e.g. via iTunes or Steam) or buy an external DVD burner that plugs in via USB. The laptop has three USB ports, two on the left and one on the right.

Yes it has one HDMI and will play a DVD. Never tried to record so not sure about that
