Connecting speakers to dvd player

I'm planning to buy a Creative Inspire 5200, and im wondering if I can connect it in my dvd player?

Hi Jason,
In such a case, can i assume that the speakers alone are sufficient to amplify the sound of the DVD player with the builtin decoder? Will the volume control of the speakers be sufficient to provide audible sound from the DVD's audio signal?
Thanks.

I'm having a problem connecting my BlueRay DVD player and other non-Mac devices to my wireless network. Is there a limit on the number of devices I can connect to my AirPort? I never have a problem connecting an Apple device (AirBook, iPad, etc).

I'm having a problem connecting my BlueRay DVD player and other non-Mac devices to my AirPort Express network. Is there a limit on the number of devices I can connect to the wireless network? I never have a problem connecting a new Apple product (AirBook, iPad) and even a basic laptop. Thanks for your help.

The AirPort Express Base Station (AX) can support up to ten (10) simultaneously connected Wi-Fi clients.

Connecting a VCR/DVD Player to a new iMac?

Hi,
Just bought an iMac 17" with the 2.0 cpu. It is connected to the internet via a wireless dsl router elsewhere in our house. No problems, my daughter has put nearly 15-hours on the net with no complaints so far, fingers crossed, of course.
[I have an older Dell pc and a vcr/dvd player connected using RCA plugs directly from the player into my video & sound cards. I have the option of using the S-video cable as well.]
I asked the dealer if it was possible to connect a vcr/dvd player to the iMac for viewing only, and the salesperson did not know. Has anyone seen such a device? A customer at the Apple Store said that I might have to bypass Apple's OS and get a copy of Windows. I thought I was getting rid of the pc when I switched to the iMac.
Any help would be appreciated!

I use a Dazzle Hollywood DV bridge. It's a firewire A/D converter that lets me capture composite or s-video to my iMac. I also use it to watch TV on my desktop using a VCR and Video Viewer utility.
I would recommend you use a firewire device to ensure maximum compatibility with the Mac (iMovie, etc.) with no need for drivers. In the case of the Hollywood Bridge, it was sold as a Windows only product. But as a firewire device, no software was needed for the Mac. It works great with all video/media software and is recognized like any firewire camcorder.
Although the Hollywood bridge isn't sold anymore, you can find them on ebay. Otherwise, you can research any video A/D converter device such as those sold by Pinnacle (pinnaclesys.com).

Connecting a Sony DVD player to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver with RCA cables

I have connected a Sony DVD player with RCA cables to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver at the VIDEO inputs. I get audio, but no video. How do I connect the DVD player to the AV receiver to get both audio and video?

Hi JB4,
Are you using HDMI cable in addition to your RCA connection? This HDMI cable is from the receiver going to the TV using the HDMI OUT port. Another option, you are using the RCA yellow + red&white right? you may connect the yellow cable directly to your TV if it has yellow port for video.
Thanks.

Connecting Creative Inspire 5.1 speakers to DVD player

Hi,
I have a LG DVD Player (DSI 8352) which gives 5.1 home theatre (dolby decoder) output.
If I buy Creative Inspire 5.1 speakers (5200 or 5700), how do I connect them ? Through RCA Stereo cables ? Would there be any compatibility issues ?
Please suggest the 5.1 speakers that would suit my requirement (no decoder / only amplifier) ..
Plz reply back to [email protected]
Thanks,Sambath

Creative offers many speaker systems that will fit your needs, without decoder.
You mentioned the Inspire 5700 system; this system comes with a decoder/amplifier, and wouldnt actually be what you'r looking for.
If your looking for awesome sound-quality, and good power, I can recommend the 5.1 Megaworks system, though this system can get quite expensive, you'll get what you pay for.
The megaworks (like "all" other creative speaker systems, got a built in amplifier in the subwoofer, where you connect all the speakers.)
To connect the speakers to the DVD-player, you connect the multichannel output on the DVD-player, to the multichannel input on the back of the subwoofer. (three stereo minijack inputs.)
You may need some RCA-to-minijack adapters, so that the multichannel audio cable that comes with the megaworks, will fit on your DVD-players output.

My ipod (older one) does not connect to my dvd player which has an ipod docking station

i have a samsung 3d dvd player that has a ipod docking station but my ipod wont connect - i have an older version of the ipod (one of the first ones to come out); could this be the reason

I have had this happen with numerous stereos and docking stations. What I've learned to do is bring my iPod into the store with me before I purchase any new electronics. I have no idea why this happens (or rather, doesn't happen), but it does. I think Apple is trying to get us to buy new iPods. :-)

Connect MacBook to DVD Player to Capture Vide Files?

Can I connect my MacBook to a DVD player to capture video files? The camera I am borrowing does not connect to computers and only spits out Mini DVDs. I tried to get the files off my work PC and they are in a .VOB format. Is there any other way I can get these files onto my Mac ASAP?

No.
a computer needs digital 'files' or streams, a DVDplayer can not offer (few do...)
your problem is the SIZE of the disks: never ever put miniDVDs into slot-in drives! get finally damaged (the drive, not the disk). only 'workaround' is usage of an external, tray dvd drive..
converting a DVD into an editable format is a frequently question with dozends of options,... Search?
is that camcorder on Apples list of iMovie supported devices?

then, you can use iM as importer..

Unable to Connect T7900 To DVD Player

You just need to follow Jason-CL's thread for 5.1 and use an extra 3.5mm jack to rca lead for the rear surround.

Connecting to portable DVD player help.

When I connect my 5G 30gb iPod to my portable DVD player (single mini plug) all I get on the player are intermittent horizontal white lines. No sound, no picture.
Yes, I have checked the video output settings on the iPod.
What could be wrong?

As long as your DVD player accepts the plugs on your cable all you have to do is hook up the white plug to the audio. If you have a plug that looks more like a mini headphone plug then you can get an adaptor to make the RCA plug on your cord become a mini plug. Still, you should be able to just plug in the one audio plug and get sound. Same as I do on my TV that only has mono.

Connecting an external dvd player

is there any way of connecting an external (tv use) dvd player to an iBook G4?
I understand the latter doesn't have video input...but are there adapter cables one could buy or something?
any helpful clues would be much appreciated.
thanks

Hmmmm
You could pick up an EyeTV, which would let you connect the DVD player to the iBook.
Why do you want to do this?

Cannot connect my Vizio dvd player through wifi

OK, I am lost. For about a year, my Vizio DVD player was plugged into my Express via ethernet, and through the Express used as a network extender to my Extreme. I could access all the online content offered through the player with no issues. Then I took a trip and brought the Express with me because my hotel didn't have wifi, only hardline. When I got home, I reconnected the Express (don't get me started on how difficult it was to get THAT connection working again). When I plugged the DVD player in via ethernet, it would not connect to the network. When I check for clients using the Airport utility, it doesn't see the player, though it sees the Express the player is plugged into.
My network is set for WPA2 access, no MAC filtering. I have tried every setting on the Extreme and the Express, changed ethernet cables, tried manually assigning an IP to teh player - no joy. Thoughts?

wifi basically means broadband without wires...you can not get into iTunes on the iPhone unless you are in an area that has wifi signal, like mcdonalds....itunes on the phone uses this because it would take forever to download songs over Edge(which is used when not picking up a wifi signal)...if not in a wifi area you can only download songs from itunes on your computer and then sync it to the phone...
iTunes on the computer is the only place you can get/make ringtones for the iPhone as well, even if you were picking up a wifi signal with the iphone

HP Pavilion HDX9000 Connect to External DVD Player

Our older HP Pavilion HDX9000 DVD died and we wanted to use an external DVD player to drive the monitor on the HDX9000. It does not seem possible to do this despite the HDMI and many other ports. The PC is running Vista. Any suggestions?

Hi,
What is your external DVD player ? There are many USB DVD players for under $50 and you can use it as internal DVD player. You can't use DVD player from your home Hi Fi system because no available port on your computer to plug it in.
Regards.

Connecting Blu Ray DVD player to TV

Hello,
I have an HDTV and we recently bought a Blu Ray DVD player. I was able to find an HDMI to DVI converter per the unit's owners manual, but could not find the audio cable(s) needed to get the unit to work. So we returned unit.
I was able to see Te video but could not hear any sound.
My question is how do I get the sound to work? What type of cable do I need?
Since our DVD player is now crazy and not working, I would like to upgrade to a blu ray DVD player. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

If your tv has an optical plug you could use that for the sound
Maybe.....
Not all TV's pass audio through the optical port on the TV. Some just use the optical port on the TV for the ATSC Tuner.
But in any case what you suggest will not work for the OP. Optical ports on TV"s are optical outputs NOT inputs, and the OP is wanting to get sound from his blu-ray player to TV.

Connecting my home dvd player to my iMac

Is this at all possible? I don't use my television for anything but watching dvds. I would love to be able to get rid of it and just use my iMac for watching dvds. I have a code-free dvd player and a collection that is split between region 1 and region 2 with a few region 3 thrown in. I am almost out of flips between region on the computer.
What do I need to use my gorgeous 20" display to play my dvds from my regular household dvd player?
Thanks so much!

We've all been burned by the region code flaw in the Apple bundled DVD drive.
A much more satisfying solution is to get an external DVD drive for the Mac (one of the models that comes region-free or can be updated to full functionality). This will smaller, provide a much better picture, and, quite possibly permit you to bunr CDs and DVDs at much faster speeds than the antiquated built-in drive.
You can find external drives and enclosures at any decent computer store. Before you buy, check online to make sure that the unit is region-free or has a region-free fix available.

Can my iPad be connected to a DVD player?

Can you connect a iPad 2 to a DVD ROM

No. iPad connectivity is concentrating on wireless transmission, with the exception of the camera connection kit and some devices plugged in the jack plug.
