DVD burning for playback in Europe and US

matt_gh2 — Fri, 08 May 2015 14:33:58 +0000

Hi,

I need to burn some DVDs that can be played by people who will be in Europe and US. If I burn onto a blank DVD-R that I bought in US, will it play in both European and US DVD players? Do I need to get disks that are of a certain Region?

Thanks, Matt

MplayerX issue with Yosemite

MplayerX does not play smoothly any more since updating to Yosemite, neither mts nor mov files. Even after reinstall. Any other player recommended, that I can skip from one clip to the next one.

Best Windows MTS player

Hi all,

Which player do you use to see MTS files on windows?
I use VLC but the paying is never smooth and the color seems a little bit washed.

Thanks

WDTV Media Player (Hacking) for Signage & Installation

Just thought that P-V users should be aware of a (quite old project) WDLXTV.
http://wdlxtv.com/

WDTV's are quite inexpensive now- don't get the new ones (Gen3) as they are not hacked yet.

Great for Art Installations (using one now) and Digital Signage, there are hacks for playback of 66mb/s material over HDMI!
(and the best thing is you switch it on and it 'simply works' for less than $100 USD!

My main motivation for posting this is that I almost swore not to buy one... thinking a MacMini or custom mini PC would be much better- but now I think completely opposite! If this works - and is cheap - just DO it... (anyway- I would rather use a PC for more productive stuff than looping video the whole day!)

Cheap Tablet as hardware 3D player ( A10 based)

Interesting thing
Based on All Winner A10 - new processor released in the China market about two months ago.

As it can play 2160p video and output it at correct format supported by 3D TVs via HDMI.
Right now only latest NVidia and AMD cards do it in hardware, and no brand tablets can do it (Windows AMD based tablets can do only 1080p).
Plus it is cheap.
