How do I hook up my playstation to my venturer dual portable dvd player?

best portable dvd player uk image

Q. I'm trying to hook up my playstation to my portable dvd player that has two screens.... I plug my playstation into one of the screens and it works fine but i can't connect the screens together after i plug in my playstation because there is no other red yellow and white holes to plug them into....... Is there a cable I can buy to do this? like a y adapter or something?

Answer
U got it....u need a Y adapter to convert the av red and white sound cables to the universal headphone jack.
U need something similar to this but the av has to be female input. because the av from ur ps is male connectors.

edit: If ur portable dvd player has no audio input then u need the adapter to have a female headphone jack so u can connect ur headphones to it.

If i took a portable DVD player on Virgin airways, would I need a special plug or something to charge it?

brit_in_ac

I'm going on holiday to Florida and would like to watch a DVD on the plane of my own choice with the portable DVD player. Would i need a special plug to plug in to my dvd on the plane and if i do would it be really expensive to buy?

Answer
Your battery should be good for at least 1 DVD, but if not, you might need an empower adapter. It also depends on your seat class, for example, on airbuses, virgin UK has power in First and Business class only, not coach. Go to www.seatguru.com and you can check out your specific seat.

Virgin UK uses Empower plugs on their aircraft, you can get an adapter at most travel stores for around $30.

Virgin US has standard US power plus, so if your device is 110v capable, you just might need a plug adapter. Note that power transformers (110-220) will not work on plane power usually..

How Do I Record Footage of Wii Gameplay for use on a PC?

th3dazegra

I'm going to buy a Wii soon, and the game, Pokemon: Battle Revolution. I want to record my battles so I can edit them with Windows Movie Maker and post them. But I'm not sure how.

Can I just plop a DVD-R into the DVD/VHS player and hit record while the game is playing?
Sorry, I'm looking for video footage, not pictures. Also, I'd like something with a little more quality than setting a camera infront of the TV. Theres always lines everywhere ._.

Answer
Well, if you have a DVD recorder, then you can put the Wii's output composite (red/white/yellow) cables into your recorder inputs, and hit record. If not, it is more complicated. A TV tuner card with composite input would make the operation easy. You could record the video straight to your hard drive that way and edit it there.

Is there a difference between region-free and all-region dvd players?

Kate

I want to buy a dvd player that will play movies from different regions... Are region-free and all-region just different phrases for the same thing or is there a difference?

Answer
Technically, a region free player will play only non-regionalized (i.e. "Region 0" DVDs) while an all region player will play DVDs from all regions.

That having been said, the terms are often used interchangeably. I'd look closely at the specs for the device to be certain that you're getting what you think you're getting.

Anyone know how to hook up a separate DVD player and VCR player?

Tiffany

I am trying to hook up separate DVD and VCR players to my mom's old TV. The DVD player and VCR player works fine separtly with the TV, but I have been trying to figure out how to hook them both up to the TV and work. Because the TV is old it does not have the hook ups in the back, so she bought a converter that hooks up to the TV that provides the hook ups.

I tried to hookup my DVD/VCR player to her TV. The VCR part worked fine, but when we would turn it to DVD, the converter shuts off.

I know that the red and white wires hook up the audio, and the yellow wire hooks up the vidio, but I don't know what the other outlets are. On the back of the DVD player there is a green outlet with a Y next to it, a blue outlet with a Cb/Pb a red outlet with a Cr/Pr, a coaxial and an S-vidio outlet. The DVD player just has vidio and audio in put and out put outlets.

Answer
you should be able to hook it up like this

coax from cable to input on VCR then out to TV use your DVD RCA jacks for DVD to VCR make sure you have the DVD out going to the VCR in. When you're ready to play a DVD you should be able to tune to whatever channel you have it set for and watch. Good Luck.

What is the Best Dual Screen Car DVD portable player out?

best dual headrest dvd players image

Catharine

I am going on a very long trip and need a DVD player for the drive. I need it to have 2 screens: the base one to have up next to me to change out the movies and the other to hang off the back of the headrest. I will have to put both of them on the headrests on the return trip, though. I would like the base one to swivel flat against itself and not have to lay open to have little feet kick it. Any ideas would be great!

Answer
When you've got two kids screaming and kicking in the back seat of the car trying to share a single portable DVD player, you might as well not have one at all. Enter Axion's new AXN-6079 dual 7-inch screen portable DVD player, capable of accepting a video-in for in-car gameplay, or good for just splitting the screen two ways for your little brats darlings who haven't yet learned to play nice and share. We're pretty sure, however, these things aren't wireless, so if you're cable-phobic, be forewarned before plunking down your $230 when they're available at some point this month.

Ubuntu Does not Work?

Q. I downloaded Ubuntu 11.04, and I tried to use it through a USB. It would start, claim that it would load, do the weird Jingle then continue and freeze. It worked on my dad's other computer, but not on mine.

Then, I used a CD. It worked on my dad's computers AGAIN, yet when I tried it got to the part where it said "Try" or "Install", I pressed Try, and it froze, with the cursor going around and around endlessly. I think I have a problem with my Graphics Card. What should I do???

System Information:
Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4 GHZ
4 GB RAM
Windows Vista 32 Bit (My Processor is 64 Bit Compatible too)
ATI Radeon 3400 HD Series (I do not use my computer for gaming...) 256 MB Dedicated RAM
HD Screen Resolution 1600x900
CD + DVD Player + Blue-Ray Player too
Sony Vaio FW180D

What should I do? Where can I update my graphics card if that is the problem? Thanks in advance.

Answer
Yeah, I think Ubuntu tests the graphics card at one point, because when i first tried to install Ubuntu on my old computer, it wouldn't work. The problem wasn't in the card not being supported, in was in that half of the card's capacitors were blown (no wonder Windows XP had been especially slow...)

Do portable DVD players kill your car battery?

best dvd players for cars dual image

Justin

We have dual screen Phillips portable dvd player and the last few times we have used it, we have noticed that after using it the day before for a couple of hours, we have trouble starting our car. It is plugged into the adapter provided by the mini-van. Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a solution?
The battery is about a week old.

Answer
it is like leaving your parkers on for a few hours, there is a bit of draw off the battery. you could upgrade your battery to a bigger capacity or you could have an accessory battery that only the screens run off, you could rig it up to the charging system with the appropriate items so it will charge itself.

how old is your battery? maybe it is a sign your battery is a little worse for wear.

What Should I Get For Christmas 2011?

best portable dvd players 2011 image

Kylie

My family members are asking me what I want for Christmas but I can't think of anything! I am a teenaged girl and this is what I already have (and i am not trying to brag or anything because i worked hard and bought most of this stuff for myself)
Things i have:
a laptop
an itouch
an iphone
a kindle
a portable dvd player

I think that is all that is majorly noteable.
I want an iPad 2 but i don't know if I really need it and it is too expensive to ask for and I rather have a lot of less expensive things than one $600 thing.

My favorite stores are Hollister and Abercrombie&Fitch. I also love VS Pink and Bath and Body Works and stuff. Besides asking for gift cards and clothes and stuff, I also need a more expensive big gift as my main gift (maybe an electronic you can think of that i dont have that isnt too expensive?) I was also thinking maybe like more hair straighteners or curlers or something? Some cool hair tool gadget?

I guess if this would help, a little about me: I am sporty and athletic but am girly in the sense that I love makeup and hair tools and stuff. I dont really like video games and i like listening to music.

Please answer if many gift ideas because to ask for various things from various people so there can be a lot of items on my list. I was also thinking of asking for some kind of awesome electronic device that is really cool that isn't as well known like not an ipad or ipod some cool unique electronic device that does cool stuff that i may not have heard of?


Thank you for your help and answers :)
I am grateful for everything I have and I spend a lot of time doing community service and helping others so please don't lecture me on that. Also, I hate Justin Beiber, and celebrities like that and also disney channel stuff and i dont like gossip magazines and all that. The Music I listen to is basically DRAKE AND EMINEM and thats pretty much it. I think i will put "Take Care" on my list.
I also already have a camera btw

What is the best blu-ray player to get without apps?

best blu ray dvd player 3d image

Jennifer

I am looking to get a blu-ray player just to play Blu-Ray and DVD discs. I am not looking for anything with apps. I just want to get my money's worth for a good, solid Blu-Ray player? What kind should I go for and why? Also, what retailer should I get it from?

Answer
Probably the Panasonic DMP-BDT 110, would be the way to go, due to the reviews that say it has good video quality compared to other players in its price range... what your going to find though is that the higher end players have better video, plus apps, this is just the way Blu Ray players are marketed, higher end players have better chips; more memory; and more apps lower end players have less apps less memory and lower end chips as a general rule...but also newer blu ray players preform better than the older model blu ray players of just a few years ago and this is especially true of the entry level line players mostly due to trickle down technology yesteryears high quality chip is now in todays economy line and the high end player has a newer chip, sometimes though the only difference is that the newer chip can do 3D and uses less electricity than the older chip so video quality on say DVD or 2D blu ray may be just as good.......a good place to buy is Amazon dot com

Are they any good DVD converting programs?

best dvd player download windows 7 image

Lovelysams

I want to convert videos so I can watch them on the actual DVD player and not just on the laptop. Legit, and safe programs only please. I have windows 7, 64-bit.

Answer
The program I use is Nero Vision. It's part of the Nero Burning ROM package, which primarily does CD and DVD burning, but it has a lot of other features. I'm not sure what the current version of Nero is, but you can get older versions very cheap on EBay, like $15, and they work just fine.

Nero Vision will convert any (supposedly) format to DVD. I use it to convert DIVX files I download from the Internet so we can play them on the DVD player and watch them on the TV. (I say supposedly because I haven't tried -all- formats.)

Hi, Well i know that mounting straps work about 90% of the time, so..
Give it a go, if it doesnt work you could also velcro the back of the dvd screen to the seat, therefore it's removable,(doesn't attravt theives)
Efficient and should hold great!!
Might cost you a couple of dollars but hey, its a great alternative.

Goodluck!

Can anyone recommend a good upconverting DVD player?

best dvd upconverting player image

CommanderQ

I am planning to buy an LCD TV that supports 1080p. Should I buy a upconverting DVD player with 1080i or 1080p support since I heard 1080i is good enough.

Answer
Sure, at least until the industry sorts out all of the

formats. That's what I did. I own the Oppo DV-981HD.

Otherwise, you could consider the LG player that plays

both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray Discs if the high price is

not out of the question. A 1080i resolution is plenty

good enough for HDTV sizes of 37" or smaller.

Can I hook up a DVD player using HDMI for video and optical audio for sound?

mike

I know this sounds weird, but hear me out. I have a Sony upconverting DVD player, Sony receiver (no HDMI or video inputs), and an Olevia HDTV. I need to use the HDMI cable from the DVD to the TV for 1080i upconversion. Then, use the optical audio connection between the DVD and receiver for surround sound. My question, will the DVD player output audio on the optical line with HDMI attached? Is there a setting I have to change for this? Any help is appreciated.

Answer
I also have a Sony upconverting DVD player and a Sony receiver. I have HDMI inputs on my Sony receiver, but I don't use it because it only just passes the sound through to the TV. I do not get any sound from my receiver through the DVD HDMI connection. I've checked the manual, and it confirms this is the way my Sony receiver is supposed to work. To get surround sound on my system, I hook the HDMI cable directly from the DVD to the TV and the optical out to my receiver. This, I believe, is what you are proposing doing with your system, and therefore, I'd have to say it should work. As far as the settings, you would have to read your specific manuals to figure out the settings. You will also have to turn off the sound on your TV when you want to use your receiver with the DVD player. Otherwise you will get an echo effect.
