just because a computer says its "not reccomended" doesnt mean anything. go ahead and use a third party dvd player. just be sure that it doesnt come bundled with spy/mal ware.

By special software...like nero i thin..but you don't need to do that. Every DVD player will read also VCD. And with remaking to DVD - it can loss a quality

Different DVD formats for recording and playing. Generally, the + seems a better choice. \n\nDual Layer recording allows DVD-R and DVD+R discs to store significantly more data, up to 8.5 Gigabytes per disc, compared with 4.7 Gigabytes for single-layer discs. DVD-R DL (dual layer — see figure) was developed for the DVD Forum by Pioneer Corporation, DVD+R DL (double layer — see figure) was developed for the DVD+RW Alliance by Sony.\n\nA Dual Layer disc differs from its usual DVD counterpart by employing a second physical layer within the disc itself; how the drive with Dual Layer capability accesses the second layer is that it could shine the laser through the first semi-transparent layer -- This is something that normal DVD recordable discs do not have. The layer change mechanism in some DVD players can show a noticeable pause, as long as two seconds by some accounts. More than a few viewers have worried that their dual layer discs were damaged or defective.\n\nDVD recordable discs supporting this technology are backward compatible with some existing DVD players and DVD-ROM drives.[citation needed] Many current DVD recorders support dual-layer technology, and the price point is comparable to that of single-layer drives, though the blank media remains significantly more expensive.\n\nJust how compatible is the DVD+R/+RW format?\nThe most comprehensive independent research performed by Intellikey Labs found that DVD+R is compatible with over 95% of current DVD players and drives, which makes it the most compatible of all recordable DVD formats. Furthermore, a DVD+RW video recorder is based on the normal DVD-Video specifications, hence it is very unlikely that need to buy a new player with dedicated playback functionality or compatibility logos to play your discs. Even the edits you make on your DVD+RW discs are DVD-Video compatible.

You have a great media player. I use Winamp 5.23, for any audio songs, and I think it's excellent. Windows media player 10 is definitely a superb one, if you want to burn things. \n\nIf you want to see DVD movies, you should have PowerDVD 6 or latest one. \n\nThere are two other media players, Quicktime & Real Player. These are good for enjoying media online.

PC - In my experience the best software is Nero.  But your computer probably already came with something like Roxio.\n\nAnyway, as far as +/-.... I prefer the MINUS.  In my experience a greater number of DVD Players accept the minus discs (especially the older ones).  If you are just archiving data... there's probably no noticeable difference.

My favorite is the HP DVD Writer because it incorporates Lightscribe technology, which means when your done buring a CD or DVD, you flip it over and it will actually etch a label onto the CD using the laser in the DVD-drive. Cool technology. Check it out here:\n\nhttp://www.shopping.hp.com/webapp/shopping/generic_subcategory.do?storeName=storefronts&landing=entertainment&category=dvd_writers&subcat1=dvd_writers&catLevel=2

I have rarely had problems with any brand of media. Having a good quality DVD burner matters more, in my experience.  I'm using a Benq DW1640 and it will burn consistently even on the cheapest no-name DVDs.

try using like photoshop if u have that. just go to "save as" and choose jpeg, the quality, and name, and you should be good. if you have video editing software, you can import the dvd video and export that certain frame.

I highly recommend the SONY DVD Direct model.  This is the world's first external DVD recorder which doubles up as a DVD burner...meaning you can use it to record video streams from a VHS, DVD, or a CAMCORDER and ALSO connect it to your computer to burn data for backup purposes.\n\nIt's ease of use is mindblowing.  I own one for myself and bought one for my father-in-law for Christmas.  It is really easy to use!!  Check out the website http://www.sonyburners.com/dvdirect for more info!\n\nTo answer your question, yes I have used it before.\n\nIs there a particular kind that is better?  I recommend going with a name-brand model, simply because they actually have a dedicated technical support team to assist you with any questions.\n\nIs there a particular kind that is easier to use than others?  Definitely!!  The SONY DVD Direct is the EASIEST one out there currently.\n\nCan store bought movies on VHS be turned into DVD?\nThe quick answer is YES.  However, if the VHS has copy protection, the picture quality on your DVD will be quite unsatisfactory.  Some copy protection on VHS will make the reproduced version have a brightness and darkness see-sawing effect. It will change from very bright to very dark and back and fort.  Other copy protection will simply distort the entire image..etc..\n\nI hope that helps!!
