How do you play a 3 inch DVD from a camcorder in a standard DVD player?

IF the camera records in the DVD format (DVD-R or DVD R) or another format your DVD player will recognize, like VCD's, DivX, etc., then what you need to do is open the tray on the DVD player and check to see if it has an indentation in it,about 3" in diameter. If it does, that's where 3" DVD's go. (Hint: MOST DVD players have this indentation in the tray and will play 3" DVD's just fine.)

What is Macrovision?

Macrovision is an anti-piracy mechanism that was commonly found on VHS tapes, and is found on DVDs so that they cannot be easily copied to VHS or with a DVR. Basically, it creates a modulation in the non-viewable section of the screen. This is invisible during normal playback, but when a VCR tries to record it, the gain control goes nuts and the screen flashes constantly.

Does a DVD multi drive burn a dual layer DVD?

This really depends. This specific capability is usually written out on the specs list of your drive. You can also check the burn speeds list - if anything there has the suffix "DL", that would mean "dual layer" - for example, if it says 8X DVD-R/DL - that means it burns in 8X speed for DVD-R, and also 8X in Dual Layer mode.

My DVD burner, an external DVD burner by DIGISTOR(digistor.com) - burns 8X in single layer and 6X in dual layer. Your drive has to specify if it can do dual layer or not. There is no automatic distinction. Check the manufacturer's website or the literature that came with your drive.

Your CD drive doesn't recognize CD rw disk why not?

AnswerIt may be quite possible that your CD-Drive was not equipped with a +RW reading feature. The CD may not also be recognized due to an over excessive amount of scratches on the reverse side of the disk. Try checking your CD-Drive capabilities. Some CD-Drive disc readers may also only read DVD+R Disc's. That could also be why.

The above is a terrible answer. Yes its possible but not likely that the drive is not capable of RWs, but most computers made in the last 7 or so years are. And there are no drives that will read DVDs only but NOT read CDRWs. Drives that could burn CDs came first, and later when the DVD writing drive came out they all had the ability to do CDs too.

Also they never actually answer the question of why the drive wont recognize the RW discs if its supposed to but wont. Where do you get these people?

No, CD (Compact Disk) technologies store data bits as reflective (or non reflective) pits in an optically (not magnetically) read substrate.

Hard disks, floppy disks and magnetic tapes store bits as tiny magnetized areas.

If you don't have cd-rom drive or floppy drive on laptop and the hard drive is not booting up what do you do?

Some Systems won't boot because the BIOS has been crashed or altered in some way? Try getting into the BIOS setup page by holding the escape key while booting. If you get the onscreen prompts follow them in. Check to see if the Hard drive is recognized by the BIOS, you should see a description of your Hard drive somewhere within the settings. Most BIOS have an AUTO detect function some where make sure it does. If that is all good, then you may want to have your Lap-Top boot from a Network device. Find a PC or other LT with IR (infrared connection capabilities) because your Lap-Top does (almost all do) set the good PC to share files and folders and alow access to the system files. Hopefully your LT will detect the IR port on the good PC and draw the boot info from it. You must be using the same OS on both PC's though. I have a sneaking suspicion you are using Windows 98 on a PC running 300-500 MHZ with 64-128M RAM? Windows 98 is notorious for crashing if you mess with files using software like Registry Mechanic or others.Otherwise invest in CD for your lap top and I find it hard to believe it never came with a CD or Floppy!
