Must you connect connect this devise to a computer, to make DVD copies, ot can you just plug it in, by itself, and put the discs in, to copy?

Easy to use. Computer not needed. You may even select preferred songs from favorite CDs and make a CD with your selections.

No, you don't need to hook it to a computer. You just put the discs in and it copies them. VERY simple to use.

You don't have to connect to the computer ....you can make copies independently.

I never plug into computer, just use it stand-alone,l I use the 1-5 duplicator stand-alone also.

I've never actually hooked it to a computer. I've always used it as a stand alone disc copier, just plugging it into the wall outlet and going from there. I love mine; works awesome!

I have the 5 disk burner (M-disk) and does not connect to a computer, either to copy or to input to the computer. The top drawer on mine is a read only and the other 5 are copy only. it will copy on M-disk and regular CD/DVD although I have not tested it to see if it will copy both regular and M-disk DVDs in the same run.

It is a stand alone unit. You do not need to plug into a computer; however, it will NOT copy DVDs that you have purchased in the store. They are all copy-guarded.

I'm not sure if you can plug an External USB device and play the files, you could however share your DVD/BluRay drive on your computer and play the files over the newtork (wired gigabit connection to be stable). It will play bluray/dvd iso or raw files. I bought a few 4TB externals and just created ISO files out of my blurays so I don't have to get up and get the disc, I can just select them from a list and play them.

Mine works just like the one in my computer, just plug in USB and computer assigns it a drive and just play - record, burn, etc. My DVD RW had gone out on my computer, but now it's fixed so have two burners now. When portable player is plugged in and you want to burn something, like at itunes, you are prompted to select which burner. I was just stunned at how well it works, just like the one built into computer. But be careful with the software that comes with it, for it is just promotional - NOT needed to operate the unit. It will instruct you to put in disc to install. P.S. The portable floppy 3.5 works great as well if you have old stuff still stored on floppies.

It has to be connected to another player. This is a mixer, not a DVD player. To find out more about the function, read my earlier post on this

that's a little confusing but I think what you're saying is dvd output to DVD recorder I believe it will work but copyright stuff probably won't copy

You can * burn it to a disc * copy it to a jump/usb drive * if your computers are networked you can access it from your laptop * failing the above, you can download it to your laptop

Do you mean the software to run the cdrom? or are you trying to copy a software to your computer, like cd to pc? The DVD ROM is plug and play with Windows OS. We had it on windows 7, though it needed two usb ports to power. If you are trying to copy a cd on to a pc, then it would depend on the software copyright. A music cd, you can rip using windows media player. A movie, probably not. A program, maybe, depending on if you can grab everything into a folder. Let me know if you need assistance,Thanks,Kevin

Don't think that's possible. Pretty sure you need the USB port - plugged directly into my DVD player's USB port.

Check the "DVD Recording Compatibility Guide" under "Product Description". If your CD/DVD drive says "DVD" on it you should be able to write pictures to these discs.Note that you can only write to a DVD-R once, so you need to move all the pictures you want on it to it at one time.

I've only copied DVD to DVD or CD to CD with it. I've never tried DVD to CD or CD to DVD, so I am unsure...but my guess is that it will not.

Sound? Well, since this isn't a CD player you will need to connect this drive to your computer and then use that system's capability (and speakers) to play an audio CD. The same thing goes for playing a DVD. Your computer needs to have a DVD application to play the video... the audio should play in synch.

You will have to purchase an external DVD/CD-ROM drive. AMAZON has several for sale.

On the newer version, that is correct. You can get an external DVD player and plug it into a USB connector and it works perfectly.

Yes, that is - IMO - one of, if not THE, primary functions of this device. I helped my parents do that two weeks ago with this unit (I purchased it for them). You obviously MUST by writable DVD disks (there are a number of formats available).

No. I'm sure there is a way of doing it but not without accessing the hard drive directly. However, since the unit has the capability of transferring to a DVD directly from the hard drive why would you consider going that route?

Of course you can do. Certainly there isnt a dvd drive; but you dont need it; just install the wireless print driver from internet or use a usb flash drive.
