Title: Bike Shows DVD Request... Post by PerrydaSavage on 09/14/05 at 03:28:19 8)Hi fellow Savage lovers! Well, Autumn is starting to entrench itself here in Newfoundland ... they shut-off summer last week and decided to bring in cooler weather ... so our Ridin' days for this season are rapidly growing short ... By January, my Ridin' pals and I will be goin' "stir-crazy", so this year I've decided to throw a "Bike Show Beer Bash" on a snowy Sat. afternoon sometime this winter ... where we'll watch Bike Shows, talk Bikes and guzzle suds. Am hoping that a kind Savager here at the Forum with a DVD burner/recorder might be able to do me a favour ... am looking to get a couple of DVD's worth of a variety of Bike Shows sans commercials ... American Chopper, Biker Build-Off, Build or Bust, Southern Chopper, Corbin's Ride On, Motorcycle Mania and American Thunder ... also any you all might have available of Strurgis, Daytona et al. Will cover the the cost of any postage and blank DVD's. Waddaya say ... anyone want to help a soon to be snow bound Biker out? Thanks! |

Title: Re: Bike Shows DVD Request... Post by Savage_Rob on 09/14/05 at 13:38:33 It's a Video CD instead of a DVD and is a different format. However, a lot of DVD players will support it. Just check your player's documentation. |

I would be *very* surprised if it could NOT play VCD's ... I would think (pickiing a random number out the air) that 95% of all the DVD players sold in the last (picking another number) two years can play VCD's That even applies to the "cheapie" players from Wal-Mart. In fact they are more likely to play VCD's than an expensive "name brand" player that is 5 years old. But the only way to be sure is to try one and see. Richard in Boston, MA, USA |

Title: Re: Bike Shows DVD Request... Post by Greg_650 on 09/18/05 at 07:16:48 I had a Panasonic DVD player that would play SOME of the "JPG" or "JPEG" files and not others. Never could figure out why. Is that the same thing? |

Title: Re: Bike Shows DVD Request... Post by Jim_R on 09/18/05 at 08:11:28 most dvd players nowadays are dvd + format which supports vcd's. Older dvd players are dvd - format which usually doesnt support vcd's If u want u can snail mail me the vcds and i can make a dvd. I got a super badass computer with a dvd burner. I built it myself with a pentium 4 3.4 processor, with 1 gig 4400 mhz ram ,250 gig hard drive, sony 16x dvd burner, 256 mb pci express ati all in wonder video card that lets me record tv, radio, and all kinds stuff. It turned my computer into a free tivo and I got it hooked up to a 54 in tv and 7.1 surround sound via fiberoptic cable. It even downloads my preview guide so I can schedule to record tv when Im not here. Sweeet |

Title: Re: Bike Shows DVD Request... Post by PerrydaSavage on 09/18/05 at 08:11:50 Yeah Greg ... our DVD player behaves the same way ... plays some jpeg picture CD's & not others ... seems random ... but it does play most all DVD's including those home-burnt ones (wife has a bunch of old 70's era Glam Band videos on a home-burnt DVD she got on e-bay and it's fine with that ...) Whoaa Jim! That's a bada$$ set-up ya got there ... I'll take you up on your kind offer ... let me look into picking up a couple of VCD's over the next week or so and I'll PM ya ... Thanks!! BTW, did anyone see that "Indian Larry Tribute" Build-off last nite ... awesome show ... and a sweet Bike! |
