PVR350 and DVD playback

[andreas_meier]

Hello,

is DVD playback in combination with the PVR350 supported? I enabled the DVD item, properly set the DVD drive location but I still see no DVD button in the OSD although the log files says it enabled the DVD menu item.

I also installed a trial-version of WinDVD6 and I'm able to see DVD on the monitor, so the DVD seems to be running properly.

Any advice?

Thx

Andreas

No, you cannot play DVD's through the PVR350 TV out.

Your only alternative is to rip you DVD movies to standard MPEG2 video files, which can then be played through PVR350. There are some plugins that help simplify this process, specifically see http://www.bladerhq.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.ph...n/DVD2MPEG

OK. Understood. It's due to my PVR350. I'm planning to add a DVB-T card to my system once DVB-T is available in my region.

Which DVB-T cards are supported for DVD playback?

Will a combination of DVB-T as an input and output device and a PVR350 as an analog input device support DVD playback?

No BDA compliant DVB-T devices are output devices. You'll need a different way to connect to your TV.
