Jaime

Does anyone know if there is a doogie howser, md DVD compatible with my DVD player in the UK? I can only find region 1 dvd's and they will not work with my stuff. I need region 2 and does anyone know if there is such a thing or where i can buy it?

Answer
It seems its only available on region 1 and this is direct from wikipedia but: Anchor Bay Entertainment released all 4 seasons of Doogie Howser, M.D. on DVD in Region 1 for the very first time between 2005-2006. As of 2010, these releases have been discontinued and are out of print.
The fact that they have discontinued the region 1 dvds it is very unlikely they will be released on region 2 I'm afraid. If I were you I would invest in a regionless dvd player I picked one up for under â¬50 and it plays all dvds-hoped this helped.

How to burn a dvd with mp4 movie including subtitle which can be played at home dvd player?

Megan Vins

I want to burn a dvd with a mp4 movie including its subtitle which can be playable at home dvd player...most importantly without any video quality loss,with subtitle and less weight so that i can burn as many movies as i can in a DVD5 or DVD9...How do i do it?....i need the best answer since i was trying to burn those movies in a dvd 9.But unfortunately,i don't know what's the reason i succesfully burnt it but its not playing in my home dvd player...Do i still need to keep the mp4 format of the movie or do i have to convert it to any other format so that the weight can be less....??

Answer
DVDs that you play in a DVD player do not have mp4's on them they have .vob files. It sounds like you have just burned an .mp4 onto a DVD and expected it to work in a DVD player because it's on a DVD. Unfortunately that's not the way it works, a DVD player will usually only read a certain format of video and it has to be laid out in a very specific way on the disc. When it is in the correct format it is called a video DVD when it is just an mp4 file or other files (documents or whatever) then it is called a data DVD. Depending on the length of the movie you can probably fit the whole thing onto a dvd5 (single layer) without losing quality but you need to do it through a program like nero (windows) or toast (mac). Select the option that allows you to make a video DVD and the program (assuming it has the correct codecs to be able to read your video file) will create the vob files for you and arrange them on the disk in the correct way.

EDIT: Lossless (no loss of quality) conversion is possible, I do it every day. If you are coming from an HD file though then it will lose quality going to SD (standard definition), or if the video is particularly long then the 'bitrate' (amount of data required to make a second of video) will have to be reduced and you will lose quality. Part of the problem you will find is that most SD videos on the internet are 525i/p at best whereas a UK DVD player will e 625i... The video's may well look better on your computer screen than it will on your TV set (even if you were using the TV set as a monitor for the computer) because of how much better the processing is in a computer graphics card than on a TV set. Either way, you need to download Nero or Toast or some other 3rd party software.

Driving to Florida with 4 kids, and one on the way... tips?

Preggo egg

We go to Florida every March break with the kids. This year it'll be easier because all the kids are; of course- a year older, and more mobile. The twins are 3 and my other 2 are 5 and 7. However, this year I'm pregnant. Not even a month yet, but I have terrible morning sickness ALL DAY. I must admit, it isn't as bad as it was last week (I'm taking something for it), but it still gets bad, and I'm afraid the long drive there (24 hours to be exact) is going to be sticky.

Any advice on how to keep myself sane, and how to keep the kids occupied? I know I've been down there about 10 times, but it's always a challenge and I'll take any extra advice I can get! We will be stopping in Washington to sleep a few hours before continuing to drive!

Thanks!
Also, we're staying at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress in Orlando... anyone been there/knows anyone about it?

Answer
Ge them each a little backpack and pack it with things that your children like to do, relevant to their age group, as well as little snacks and such. You can go to the dollar store and get them little games and stuff to keep them occupied such as perhaps crayons, coloring books, writing pad, pencil, little toys, perhaps small books, or even cheap mp3 players with their favorite songs on them. etc. It would also not be a bad idea to pick up a portable dvd player for your children to watch little movies and stuff on. You can also set up a little scavenger hunt for them, (such as find mommy a green car, etc) you can play I spy, and even sing along to their favorite songs with them. Perhaps you can even find them a cheap kids camera (wal-mart, 20 dollars apiece) and let them take pictures of all the interesting things they see and etc. this will keep them busy for a while.

you can go to craigslist.org and find a cheap portable dvd player in your area that you can buy. My husband and I found an awesome one for our 2 year old son when we went on a trip to oregon (we flew... 18 hour trip including layovers, and three planes there, three back....) and we paid only $40 dollars for it.

also if you have a few extra dollars, it would be a great investment to pick up some little leapster for your children, as these have multiple games they can mix and match and can keep them occupied for hours.

you can probably find one or two cheap on ebay, craigslist ( i just looked and they have them used for as low as $25), or go to wal-mart, they are $50 apiece, but they will provide you with sanity for years to come.

also how about driving down at night. That way the children will be asleep and you can keep your sanity then as well. just pack extra sipppy cups in case they wake up, and put on some soft music in the car. You can watch your kids the day before and let your husband get some rest, and then when he is driving down, you can rest, or since the kids will already be asleep, if he gets too tired, he can pull over at a rest stop for a few hours. then when you get to florida, you watch the kids for a few hours while he takes a nap, he can do the same for you, and that night, start up with you old routine.
