DVD which you can only get sound but played else were and it played fine why?

this probably occurred due to the fact that not all DVD players are designed the same. i have a number of DVDs in my DVD library which states on the DVD storage case that some features may not play in all DVD players. therefore, it depends on which brand of DVD player you have. if you continue to experience difficulty playing your DVDs, i would suggest that you contact the manufacturer of your DVD player for advice to your problem.

What is the difference between 7.1x optical zoom and 36x optical zoom and which one is better to go with between Nikon P7100 and Nikon P500 digital compact camera?

Can you eliminate commercials by having a DVR?

Technically "yes" and "no"

With DVR you can pause live TV.

Say your watching the 10pm news

A commercial break is about to happen....

You hit the "pause" key on your remote control and have now froze the screen.

While the screen is frozen you will hear no sound at all.

A few minutes later you hit the "live" key on the remote.

The sound and picture now return to what is broadcasting live.

You have just skipped over a few minutes of tv broadcast.

Without hearing or seeing what was on (commercials!).

The problem is (a minor one), you may pause the tv too long or too short.

Too short and you will catch the remainder of commercial(s).

Too long and you will miss a portion of the broadcast (10pm news for ex).

Two things you can do if this occurs:

Rewind if you paused to long.

Or press the "pause" key again if you didn't freeze the screen long enough to avoid commercials.

So yes - you can eliminate commercials manually.

No, you can't do it perfectly everytime.

When was digital camcordeer made?

Like many high technologies, it's a bit blurred; the D1 standard for recording digital video was defined in 1986 and early systems using it were released in 1992 - they were huge and expensive (around $160,000) with a separate tape deck. The first device that could be described as a consumer digital camcorder is probably Sony's VX1000 introduced in 1995 using the DV standard.

How can you record on an in line recording on a VCR?

Okay... Your question is kinda confusing me so I'm going to tell you how ALL WAYS and you choose on which 1 is the best! As a statement I heard that master engineers actually use VCRs as their converters to upsample their rates of their sound. How cool huh :D

YELLOW IS ONLY USE FOR PICTURE/VIDEO SIGNALS

WHITE IS ONLY USE FOR THE LEFT SIDE OF AN AUDIO FILE WHICH IS CALLED "MONO" OR SYMBALIZES "L"

How do you transfer or download movies from a DVD camcorder model Panasonic vdr d-100 onto a PC and do you need separate software to first download and then edit?

Maybe the camera came with some software for computer downloads too, and there's tons of free software for editing, etc. on the internet if you'll take the time to search for it.

DVD recorder won't copy onto DVD R disks but will copy to DVD-R disks. Why?

DVD-R disks are the most common in use today and that's why it'll record -R disks. The older recorders didn't have the software embedded in them to record on an R disk, but the newer generation machines usually will. Without going into a lot of techno-babble,the `R` was a positive recording system and the `-R` was a negative recording system. Most commercial movies you buy are -R disks as well, and since my computer will record both, I choose the -R disks because I'm relatively sure they'll play on any DVD player.
