Will this play standard DVDs?

Yes it will. Blu-Ray players will play standard dvd and usually upconvert them even, though standard non blu-ray players upconvert ones or not WILL NOT play Blu-Ray discs.

Absolutely. It plays any DVD Blue Ray or regular. It also will play Music cds and, if you would be so inclined, will read a disc with pictures and allow you to show them on your TV. It will also allow you to acccess the internet if you have a WiFi modem. If you like you can stream movies from Netflix or Amazon it you are a member. Great piece of equipment!

Yes, it will read standard HD discs. This is a 1.44MB disc. There were other disc formats that look like standard HD discs but they held as much as 120MB and they will not work in this drive.

yes they will play normal dvd's if you have any recorded in mp4 or windows media ect check to make sure it plays those types of files blue ray is just a lot more lines of resolution giving better picture quality match it up with a tv with 720 or 1080 and you should get very nice picture!

Ammy, Yes this unit plays regular DVD's! I have this same unit and it is great. It's small and tucks away nicely. Bryan Miller

I purchased this player to play BBC UK DVDs (PAL-I standard). It is plug and play out of the box for these DVDs.

Not really sure, but my wife plays some older DVD's from time to time and it always works.

Yes this will play any cd,dvd, bluray. It will also burn all of those. I burn bluray movies and it works great. You will need to purchase the SATA connector wire separately, see link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009GUX8YK/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It is backwards compatible so will work like a regular DVD. Will play regular, blu ray and 3D DVD's. You can't run 3D unless you have a newer 3D TV, but any tv will show a regular or blu ray DVD.

You should have no problem playing standard CDs. CD-Rs or bootleg discs may not play. Contact Sony for more information.

Mine will play most dvd's. I've noticed that it will not play foreign made dvd's regardless of whether they are region 1 or region 0.

It depends on your system. Check your disc information page, or you dvd guide.

It will play DVD's. . .but has no floppy. I bought a plug in floppy which works pretty good. For the price, its a fairly good computer. I bought it for my office data storage. Couldn't be the price. My local Dell refurb shop would have sold it for $ 400+.

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