Will it play regular dvds?

Yes as long as they are formatted for the US market which everything you would have access to buy in the US. All Blu-ray players are backward compatible. Hope that helps.

I know this is an old question but in case anyone new is looking I just want to clarify that yes it will play regular DVD's (NTSC only - does not play PAL) and it will automatically up convert them to HD. However, and Amazon still has not fixed the false claim that it will convert non-3D DVD/Blu Ray to 3D. If a film is not in 3D this will NOT magically create a 3D version.

Depends on what you're trying to play for media. It will still play DVDs and HD-DVDs. It will not play bluray discs.

Hi Gaius, no, you don't. Regular DVD Players can play converted DVD videos. -Vincent

YES. It plays "normal" DVDs like other players. As recordings go, it has served me well in converting zillions of very old BUT UNIQUE VHS video tapes into DVDs. Although the ideal player of the future will play AND record Blu Ray AND "normal" DVD format as well as MP4 video files, right now I've little in Blu Ray fomat. Seldom have I had such DEPENDABLE RELIABLE performance from any electonic gadget. It runs and runs and runs and runs without any hassle. CHEERS,Gerhardt J.

I think you misspoke...this machine makes copies of DVD's. To the best of my knowledge the DVD's will play back in any regular DVD player.It also will copy CD's.It will not copy any encrypted or copy protected materials.

Yes, it plays regular CDs. It does not have a CD changer, but it sounds good in my shop.

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.)

It does have the native ability to play DVDs, but I'm not sure about taking from or sending to external video. Mine is not cabled to be able to do such, but there might be an additional input/output that I'm not aware of.

Hi, this item can play regular DVD wonderfully. But this item cannot support digital tv signal, just analog tv signal as stated.

No, it does not. It only plays DVDs from the region where you buy the player. Source: personal experience :(

It's supposed to play both, however after six months mine stopped playing regular dvds and will now only read blu-ray. It is also SUPER SLOW to load. You'd be better off getting one of the new quick loading ones. You can put a blu-ray in this one, go to the kitchen, make dinner, come back, and it still might not be done getting ready. Especially with newer discs that need a downloaded update to the machine's software.
