I cannot watch DVD movie

I cannot watch a movie (2,04GB) on a DVD player. I load the movie on a DVD (4,6GB) in my computer.

Hi Blackamb3r,
My DVD is a sony. I have tried to watch a movie 2,03GB but I see a data error on my TV screen. I found out that the whole movie was not saved on a DVD disc 4,6GB in my computer.My DVD player suports AVI and DIVX in those the movie was downloaded.
Why a movie 2,03GB wasn't saved on the above DVD disc?. How can I save this downloaded movie by using windows explorer or DVD creation programme?

  • I think I overused my DVD player watching DVD movies with G5 with tv mirror

    I am a switcher. I bought a G5 which has been connected to my tv with a dvi/S connector and a twenty foot cable. I watch a lot of DVD rom training on my TV and then started using my computer to watch DVD movies routinely on tv.. The CD/DVD always makes noises like spinning, but lately has stopped recognizing the DVDs I put in. And once I inadvertenttly inserted a CD on top of a DVD and It ground about making terrible noises before i could get it ejected.
    Now can't burn jpgs onto a
    DVD and give them to pc friends and family. I don't know if i wrecked the hardware. But any advice on replacing or determining problem would be welcome. I have heard it is better to buy memory, add ons from online stores for better price than Apple store. What should I do? Can I take my G5 in for service in San Diego somewhere without paying more than a good online price for a new DVD/CD burner. And since my G5 is over 6 years old. Which can I upgrade to. I want to be able to burn pics for backup and gifts playable on tvs sold to play jpg. Maybe i did something wrong in burning. I think I was using Lightroom and it chose the burn folder. I am used to using Toast 6. choosing pc/mac compatible during setup. I have a jpg dvd player and it won't read the disc either. Does Tiger's BurnFolder only work on Mac computers after burning CD or DVD. Reason i choose DVD was I had a large media of SLR and they wouldn't all fit on a CD/

    Two options:
    Buy a new Pioneer 111 or 112 drive for about $40-50 and change it in about 5 minutes.
    Or if you think a new computer is in the offing or you would rather have a DVD drive on the desktop where it is handy, get a LaCie D2 external FW drive and use that. They even provide a full non demo version of Toast with a new D2.
    Or if you are indecisive do what I did and get both.

  • How do I turn off computer monitor when watching DVD movie on TV monitor?

    I think this is really a Leopard question because it involves setting up 2 monitors in System Preferences within OSX. 1) I have a wide screen TV connected to my iMac (Intel White Late 2006) through the Mini-DVI port and a separate audio cable. This connection works fine. 2) The purpose of the TV screen is only to watch DVDs using the DVD player and iDVD in my iMac. 3) In System Preferences->Displays->Arrangement, both my computer monitor and the TV screen appear as separate monitors. I have the setting to mirror each other. With this setting, the DVD movie plays on both the iMac computer screen and on the TV screen. 4) FINALLY, MY QUESTION: When watching a DVD on the TV screen, I would like to turn off the monitor in my iMac so that the screen is dark (in sleep mode to save power, etc.); I want only the TV screen to display the movie. How do I turn off only the iMac screen? Thank you. Dale

    That's impossible. It can only be done on a laptop but not on an iMac.

  • Cannot play DVD movies in Windows XP

    Does anyone know of any driver that I have to download in order to play just regular old DVD movies with Boot Camp? The CD-ROM aspect of the drive works fine, as I play games all the time...but when I try to play a movie it says that it cannot....has anyone found a fix to this?

    Lol well unfortunately it didn't, I installed it, popped a movie in, and this is the messege that i got:
    Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD drive, decoder, and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your video card.
    It was just a regular DVD movie bought from the store, not a burnt one or anything...I'm confused...

  • Cannot watch a movie due to AppleTV repeated error

    I've installed the update twice, each time it appeared to complete successfully.  When pressing to watch a movie, the apple motion circle appears for 3 seconds and it then stops and reverts back to the main menu.  This is consistent - we cannot watch anything through our Apple TV, this started in January.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Connect the Apple TV to your computer and launch iTunes to restore it, that may help. 

  • I can't watch DVD movie on my MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011). Why?

    i have a Macbook pro 13"
    Mac OS X version 10.6.8
    Processor 2.3GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    I tried to mount a DVD movie disc into my macbook but it automatically ejects without running.
    My mac has Windows on bootcamp. The disc wouldn't run on windows as well.
    Is there any problem with my mac? I rmb i could watch DVD on my mac. 

    Hey lilnaix,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like you are experiencing issues with the SuperDrive on your MacBook Pro. The following resource provides some great troubleshooting information.
    Apple Computers: Troubleshooting the slot-loading SuperDrive - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/HT2801
    While you should definitely give the entire article a read, I have highlighted a particular section that may resolve your issue:
    Accepts discs but they don't mount or are automatically ejected
    1. Make sure the drive is not placed upside down. The aluminum enclosure should be facing up as shown in section 1.
    2. Check the disc's surface for scratches and dirt, since these things can prevent the disc from appearing on the desktop.
    3. Connect the MacBook Air SuperDrive directly to the computer's USB port instead a USB hub.
    4. Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
    5. Ensure your drive can read the specific type of disc being used. The System Profiler or System Information may provide additional information regarding what media your computer supports.
    - OS X Snow Leopard v10.6 or earlier: Open Apple System Profiler by choosing "About this Mac" from the Apple () menu. Then, click More Info.
    - OS X Lion v10.7 and later: Click the Apple () menu and then hold down the Option key. Choose System Information from the menu.
    6. If the disc continues to not be recognized, contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider, or make an appointment with an Apple Retail Store.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • HT3042 how to watch dvd movie with bluetooth

    I want to watch a DVD movie on my macbook air using the dvd drive on another macbook pro.   How do I do this? 

    You can't do it over Bluetooth - it isn't fast enough at all. Plus if you were close enough to have Bluetooth access then you might as well just watch it on the MacBook Pro.
    How to share a drive is described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5287 but it doesn't work with DVD movies because they are protected.
    So you can't do what you want to do.

  • Cannot watch rented movie on apple tv 1

    I recently rented a movie from the iTunes store and downloaded it into my AppleTV (original version). Surprisingly, at the end of the download when I tried to watch the movie I got an alert message on the screen saying my  AppleTV is not authorized to show the movie. Is there something I missed about the compatibility of the original AppleTV and iTunes Store rentals?

    Try de/re authorising your computer.

  • Watch DVD Movie From External Dvd Player

    Hello! I hope someone can help me. I've been wondering if i can connect an external dvd player (not dvd drive) in my powerbook to watch movies. There are some disc that my PB superdrive couldn't read but when using my external dvd player it works. Is it possible to do so??? Thanks....

    You will not be able to connect the external DVD player directly to the PowerBook. However, with the aid of a device like Elgato's eyeTV you can then connect the DVD player to the eyeTV, which is connected to the PB.
    A relatively complicated way to watch a DVD on the PB, but the eyeTV does provide more options as well.
    15" 1.25GHz/12" 1GHz PBs, 2xPPC Mac minis, 12" iBook G4,   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Cube, 2xTAMs, iPods 2G/4G, iPs, AEBS, AX

  • I cannot watch a movie and I've bought it

    To whom it may concern,
    Last month I purchased a movie called Hitchcock at the price of $14.99. However, I failed to watch it, and it just cannot stream properly. I want to either cancle this purchase or fix the streaming issue.
    Could anybody check and give me a response on this issue? Also, I am not sure which number to call in regard to this matter, I would like to have this info as well.
    I would appreciate any help on this! Thank you very much!
    Best regards,

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    How/what are you trying to stream the film to ? When you buy films they are downloaded to your computer/device, they aren't streamed from the store.
    Depending upon what country that you are in (films can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting the film from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download films or if it re-downloads with the same problem then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history to contact iTunes Support : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that film and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • Cannot watch rental movies on iphone 3gs since downloading OS6

    Since downloading 0S6 on an iphone 3gs, I get the message "Cannot Open" for two rental movies, one of which I had watched half of and one which I had not watched at all. The time is now ticking away until expiry on both of them and I'm unable to watch them. I've tried a reset but that didn't work.
    I have rung up Apple UK twice and got two different operators, one in the UK and then one in the USA. Both seemed very isolated with no contact with other Apple Mac staff except through computer. One told me to contact iTunes support online (he gave me an url and then realized it was the American url and not for the UK) and the other gave me the same url and told me to contact iphone support online.
    Both times I was left waiting for an inordinately long length of time when I suspect the operators were dealing with other calls. In fact, I got the impression, rightly  or wrongly, that I was dealing with people who were working from their own homes with minimal training and support and who were being paid for the number of calls they took and, if  there was a call like me which didn't come up with a solution on the computer screen, they went on to other calls and left me hanging.
    I did manage to find the Apple UK support page on my own but when I tried to contact them the error message "Service Unavailable - DNS failure. The server is temporarily unable to service your request. Please try again later. Reference #11.7f2645f.1348163355.65fe47"
    https://expresslane.apple.com/GetproductgroupList.action?locale=en_GB&caller=cup
    I haven't had to contact Apple UK for a year or so but I've never had such an awful, waste of time experience before with people who did not seemed at all trained or given the facilities to handle calls. Can somebody please help me on this or give me an email address for Apple Support UK?

    I believe the issue is that you have to be connected to the Internet (the iTunes Store) when you play the movie. I'm not sure if that's just when you initially start the movie or not. This is necessary, I'm assuming, to keep tabs on their time limits for viewing the movie once it's started. You could go to iTunes Store and scroll to the bottom and click on Terms of Use. It's all spelled out there under Rentals.
