Can you play DVD movies by CDRom??

[esumitkumar]

Is there an app/emulator that will allow my ordinary CD Rom reader to play DVD movies?


TIA

U r killin me, maaan.... there is no way u can play a DVD on a CD drive... emulator or not...

Why the hell do u think they made DVD drives for???!!!

U can rip the DVD using DVDShrink, cut it into 700 mb sections and burn them on CD. Then u can play the DVD using the CD. Full DVD quality video and sound!

man.........thts way too lame dude...
there is nothin in the world tht can enable a CD rom to play a DVD...
A DVD is totally a different thing dude...
well kalpik in order to rip a DVD u atleast need a DVD-ROM...
read the question dude...lol

 

[kalpik]

Oh that u need to rip it obviously! But u can rip it at a friend's place! (thats what my friend does at my pc! hehe)

Just thought of sharing this! No offence meant to anyone dude!

There is no way by which you can read dvd by using Cd-rom.

Apart from the capacity that varies b/w dvd and cd, the formats of
cd and dvd are completely different.

I know it before hand guys but one of my frnds say it is possible by some software ...

 

[kalpik]

He is lying! Hehe

well bro let me make it Simple ..can you make tea With Cofee Beans ???? inspite of Other ingediants being same The Tea leaves gives the Mixture of Milk,Water and Suger ..the Flavour of tea ..where as Cofee Beans give it Flavour of Cofee....Thus CD Rom's Laser Cannot read DVD's...so in short you cannot play DVD's on CD Rom..even a Emulator wont work...coz to Emulate a DVD you need to put it in a DVD ROM Drive.....Ok ...

well dude they both work on different wavelengths so it`s impossible max... ucan do is rip the movies in 700 mb chunks with out loss in quality as suggested u get many softwares to do dat
but u`ll need a dvd rom n then u can burn the chunks on a cd ang view it

i am not too sure but i believe i read it somewhere that by reducing the aperture of the CD lens DVDs can be read but it is only applicable to certain CD writers.

 

[bharat_r]

The light from a DVD laser has a wavelength of 640 nanometers where the light from a
CD laser is 780 nanometers.

If u could reduce the wavelength of light from CD laser to 640 nm by some methord u can make CD-Rom Drives to read DVDs.
