Linda you can't play anything on it. I was never able to use mine or return it. I still have it to this day brand new. It is a worthless piece of junk. I do not recommend purchasing this item. Save yourself the disappointment and buy something else.

No, it does not, but you can buy an external DVD drive (~$20) which plugs into one of the USB ports, if you wish, for playing DVD's.

Hi there - short answer is yes - just hook it up and it'll play any DVD - I play discs from both UK and US on my US TV and they work fine

If your movies come in DVD, yes, you can watch. You need a DVD player (software/application, there are some free version you can download from the internet), and the player should be all-region or the correct region in order to play with the DVD is a region restricted (most DVD player software is region free). Keep it short, hardwarely, yes it does.

Hi Gaius, no, you don't. Regular DVD Players can play converted DVD videos. -Vincent

Yes as long as it's connected to a PC running the proper DVD player software. This is not a stand alone DVD player.

It should be able to, but it does come with the region unset. To properly play movies, you do have to set the region.

I was not sure so I checked the manual and it says: 'You can play the following discs on the DVD player (including CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD-R and DVD+RW, DVD-RW). Don't blame me if it doesn't; I just quoted the manual. Good luck, this Philips DVD player is a good product.

I recommend using a playstation 3 for that. It'll play movies from usb stick or sd, pro duo memory cards. I also use mine for blueray and dvds.

Yes If the DVD Player has Video RCA video Output (Yellow connector) or SVGA connector. The speakers (RCA red and white) are low power so the sound will not be so good. Beware It's 800x600 resolution so the image will not be the standard 1080p

I may not fully understand your question, but it doesn't have the capability to play a dvd. However, you can copy a dvd to a thumb drive, and it will play. Bottom line.. a thumb drive is necessary for any recording and/or playback.

No.. It only plays videos from DVD... USB will allow pics to be shown an screen captured.... Nice unit but limited

I'm not 100% sure, but suspect you can. We play them on an older DVD player.

Yes, sort of. you will need a DVD player to play the DVD. This comes with all the wires you will need. The down side is that it does not have speakers so if the DVD player does not have speakers then there will be no sound . So you may Ned to buy external speakers

No, but you can do what I do, use the anydvd program to extract the movie from the DVD then convert it to mp4 and put it on a usb hard disk and play it on the player.

You can but as I recall you can only do it through the FireWire port and then when you finalize the disc you can play the movies back on a regular DVD player

Yes the unit has HDMI and Video connections that will allow you to connect to most DVD players in the market.
