[QUOTE="SetsunaS, post: 2171074, member: 767825"] This my own understanding: Correct me if I am wrong: If you are talking about DVD player, that connects to your TV to play DVD movies and DVD ROM that hooks up in your computer to read DVD/CD datas and then they're little bit different. DVD Players (the one that hooks up to your TV) is specifically design to read DVD Files (such as DVD Movies) and most of them can read cd files (music). It depend of what the DVD firmware (the software in the DVD player) can read. DVD ROM (that one that hooks up in the computer) Unlike the DVD player, it can read a wide variety of data files. From movies to .exe files etc.... But the problem is, it only reads them. For example, your are going to watch DVD movies on your computer through your DVD ROM, you will need another program in your computer to play it, such as DVD decoder or something that plays dvd files. If you don't have a dvd decoder, you cannot watch the movies. But it still be able to displays the files in the DVD disk.
