Question DVD Viewing

I read that I can use my PDA for DVD Viewing.

Do I Need to buy a special DVD versioon of a film or do I need software to record to my HP2210?

Many Thanks

Try this- http://www.handango.com/PlatformProd...SectionId=1421

There are others but this seems to be the job. Check out the rest of them. Read carefully to make sure you don't make a mistake and download the wrong version.

here is something that might help guys , i wrote it on another forum

i am one of those people that wants my pocket Pc to do everything , even though its getting on now and not cutting edge , so for months i have been trying to squash down DVD movies to fit my 128 Mb Cf card

impossible you say .....no not realy , its just a matter of knowing a fair bit about compression and conversion and also having the time and patience , to read and read and read about the various ways of achieving the conversion process

Untill now , i stumbled across a bit of software on download.com called pocketDVD and to my amazement , IT WORKS , , the trial version only allows about 6 Mb of a dvd to be converted but the full version although a bit querky works great , no more hasstle of working out bit rates and sizes and everything else , pop in your dvd select a name to save it as , screen size , language and click start , hour or so later and its done

you can even select what size you want the file to become , i went and bought a 256 Mb Cf card because the bigger the file size the better quality the movie , and now keep my 128 Mb Cf card just for Navigation , oh and the odd , dodgy movie clip to impress my mates at work , hey it`s the buildings what do you expect

just for reference i`m using a Ipaq 3630 so if you want to try putting movies on your pocket pc , use PocketDVD , and no i dont work for em , just like the software that actually does what its supposed to do , easily

the others above gave me loads of probs , and i`m using a fast and modern Pc , try them first please then try PocketDVD , i wont put link in here prob not allowed , just do a search or look on DL.com as mentioned in my txt above

i have found that cartoon movies are the best like Monsters inc and the such but normal movies are plenty good enough

hope this helps

Apologies, Stevie. I didn't actually realise that you guys did downloads. I'm sorry if my mistake has p***ed anyone off, I'll look the full site from now on! I really wasn't trying to advertise anyone elses' site. Anyway, it's a great bit of software.
