I have played all the Stamina DVDs on my computer and on a portable DVD player with no problems.

I found that I kept having to restart the DVD on process until it finally "caught". But eventually it did work. (I had a very primitive DVD player.) Just keep trying and eventually it will play for you.

I have been using this DVD for months on an inexpensive little player from a big box store. Never had any problems playing it at all.

I play mine on a sony Blu-ray/DVD player. It plays both DVDs and Blu-ray discs and have had no problems.

I have not played commercial DVD movies but homemade DVD movies play no problem. I am 99.9% sure commercial DVD's will play as well.

Apparently its a format issue. Any disc with BD-Java encoding will not resume. I like the higher res of bluray but hate pretty much everything else about the format. It is not consumer friendly in the least.

Did you buy a physical "DVD" game or did you by a download game? I have the physical DVD game and I do not need to use the disc (after initial installation) to play the game. I purchased it this way intentionally because some of the online downloaded games have to be run through an online server like Steam and there fore can only be played while you are on line (WIFI connected) and I use my laptop while traveling and seldom have a WIFI connection. Since you don't have an internal DVD player your options would be to buy an external USB player (they can be very inexpensive, from 19.99 up) to download a physical DVD of the game or buy an on line downloadable version.

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.

No it is not, as I know from experience. It failed to play my wife's polish origin DVD.

Hi Tamara. No, only the main unit plays the DVD. The other one is basically a slave the runs off the video signal of the main unit (via a cable). The "slave" can't even power up unless the main unit is turned on as well.

Michael,I guess it's possible the standard DVD is DTS 5.1 which would answer the question. I just cant' find any detailed info about the DVD online. I guess I'll have to track one down at the store and read the cover.

This is software modified in the menu by setting region code to 0. It will play as long as discs are not RCE (region code enhanced). Many newer DVDs have RCE protection, so it's best to purchase a hardware modified DVD player. One with WorldClad hardware modification or PMC will be the best and there is no menu adjustment needed. I have a Philips which is ok and a Pioneer which is very good.

I have only played region 2 DVDs.. I have never tried region 1, but I think they should play on it.

My Unit never played DVDs from the beginning. Never played DVDs from the box. I thought it was a region code issue but it is not. Then I though it was an Firmware issue so I upgraded from V26 to V29. Still does not play DVDs. I bought it from Amazon LLC directly. If I would have found out this after I purchased the unit, I would have gave Amazon a piece of my mind. But it's too late now as a couple years has gone by. Please learn from my mistake. I bought a VERY EXPENSIVE CD Player (Philips HTS8100/37).

Donald, Have you had any success fixing this problem? I am having the same problem, I try transferring DVD files to the MP3 and it seems to work, but when I go to play the video on the mp3 it gives me an error. I think it needs to be converted but don't know how. Thanks.

Yes. This is a Region 0 DVD, and so should play on all UK (and most European) DVD players.

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.

They are right. Download to computer and burn disc , I 'm not real computer literate as I have a problem viewing the disc on my tv. Which I blame on not knowing how to the right software to burn a DVD. But anyway, I wanted to add that you could also email the video as an attachment to your prof,

I have both region 1 and 2 dvd's and they play ok. Just make sure that when you receive the box there is a 'region free' sticker on the outside.

Some "evil scientist", divided the world in regions to watch DVD's, I believe there are 7 regions, each one not compatible with the others,... Nice uh?... USA, Canada and Japan are # 1, Europe is # 2, and so on, check google and it will tell you. However there are players such earlier Philips models ( Divx capable ) that by entering a code with your remote, will convert your player to region 0, which is general, and plays everything. Why do it this way, it baffles me, evil, pure evil... Every movie you rent in the USA is supposed to be region # 1. Unless you are part of elite renters that ask for titles not available in the USA, or buy outside our country over the internet, in that case make sure your player can handle all regions... One word of caution, if you use your computer, in my case, Windows XP, home version, you can change your region to another and be able to play two regions but... the big but,,, it can be done only once, lets say you change the original #1 to #2, and then change to #3, you will be able to play 2 & 3, but 1 will not play and is not reversible ! Hope I helped you. Peter
