Answer 2

You need to first convert the file so that your DVD player can "read" it.

I use ConvertXtoDVD and it works great and it's very simple to use. Add the file to ConvertXtoDVD and select "Convert" and that's it - everything else is automtic. It converts and burns the file to disc - then you put it in your DVD player and watch it.

Answer 3

Most movie DVDs has copy protection, if you want to copy it to your hard disk, you must decrypt the


copyright protected dvd first. Otherwise, Although you copy the *.vob files to the hard disk, but most media


players cann't it. My friends recommend me to use E.M. Free DVD Copy to copy DVD moives. The video quality


that be copied is excellent. If your dvd moive size larger than 4.7G, you can compress DVD to suitable size.

in addtion to, new version add some funtions like convert DVD to other popular formats, such as h264, Xvid,


MOV, VOB, Mpeg, Mpeg4, Mpeg TS, AVI, WMV. so you can watch dvd movies on portable player conveniently.

free use without limiting.
