How do i clean a Blu-ray disk?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cleaning a VCR isn't difficult once you know the way it's done. The biggest problem would be in cleaning the video heads because they can be destroyed very easily by inexperienced hands.

One of the easiest ways would be to locate a 3M brand `Blackwatch' cleaning tape or to find one where you apply a liquid to a cloth type tape, as a last resort. Personally, I prefer the Blackwatch, but the best is to have it professionally done if you can afford it.

If it wasn't for the ease of destroying the video heads, I'd give you step by step on how to do it. However, if you search the internet, you should be able to find instructions on how it's done.

Which side of a DVD plays?

Asked by Wiki User

Well, neither of them "plays" but I still get the question. The data is actually on a thin metal like surface in the center. A laser beam detects nothing more than pits. Like 100111000111001000 CPU language. Either there is a pit or not. This happens when the light from the laser beam is bounced off the "bottom" of the disc.

What do you need to watch Blu-ray discs in 1080i?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A Blu-Ray player is the first requirement. To watch the content in high definition, an HD television with an HDMI connection is needed but a Bluray player can also be connected to a standard definition television using the analog connections. The benefit of HD will be lost, but you are still able to watch the content.

Which feature of Blu-ray disc makes it suitable for high definition?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Blu-Ray discs can only be viewed on high definition displays. Blu-Rays are named in reference to the blue laser used to read the disc. A dual-layer disc contains up to 50GB of capacity. Blu-Rays have a hardcoat layer on the bottom that makes it more resistant to scratches than DVDs are.

How much does a domain registration cost a year?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It varies by company, but generally, it is between $8 and $10 per year for the registration. This does not include hosting.

* Domain registration cost are varying according to the company services and it's quality. There is no fixed price of purchasing a domain.

* I would always prefer best services rather than the cheapest one.

* There are a huge amount of domain registrar on the internet that always giving a fake promise to give best services at it's all time lowest cost but in actually they would fail to do so. So you should always first analyze the company background to stay away from all the future troubles.

What is Magnavox DVD Player dp100mw8b remote code on a comcast remote?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Two easy suggestions. 1) Trick: pre-pend a 1 to the code. Some have found by just adding an additional "1" in-front of the comcast remote code works. For, example, My Magnavox codes found at: http://www.comcast.com/MediaLibrary/1/2/CM/VanityURL/documents/comcast_dvr_remote_manual.pdf were 0054, 0030, 0179, & 0186.

So I should try 10054, 10030, 10179, 10186.

2) Goto the remote manufacturer's site. I found out that my comcast remote is made by UEI at this URL: http://www.urcsupport.com/ I found my remote on that page (one similiar, not exact) and clicked for the codes. which led me here (great page...) http://www.urcsupport.com/html.php?page_id=329

It asked for my "BRAND" (magnavox) and "MODEL" (left blank). it returned code: 10054 Same as one in answer #1 AND IT WORKED!!! Good Luck

Can I watch High Definition video without a blu ray player?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes you can.

If you mean cable as in the broadcast feed from a cable supplier, then Bluray player operates independently of the broadcast feed.

If, by high def cable, you mean the cable from the player to the television, it would be an HDMI cable. Even without an HDMI cable, almost all Bluray players have a composite video interface that will deliver a standard definition version of the output.

How do you recycle a DVD player?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You could just throw it in your garbage and think nothing else of it. Better and more ecofriendly alternatives are donating it or selling it if it still works. If it no longer works, you can look up places in your area that will recycle electronics. To my knowledge, all Best Buys will take old electronics off your hands and handle them in a responsible manner.

How do you connect a DVD player and a video cassette player to the cable connection on TV?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Get a double sided A/V cable and connect it to the DVD player's A/V outlet and the other side to the tv's A/V outlet. Then you must get a male double sided coxal caple and connect to the VCR's coxal outlet then do the same for the tv. I hope this helps you. ;)
