Playing assets from DVD player

[BabyGonzo]

I have Phillips DVP 642 which plays everything but it doesnt play sound when playing XX.S2D.mpg assest that have been placed on a DVD for backup purposes ..

i was wondering if anyone new of a DVD player that does play them ?

i would be intrested in buying one if there is one .

erm...so why not just finish the mpg to DVD conversion w/ S2D to allow playback on yr Philips? You aren't saving any more space by leaving your video files in raw mpeg format.




Otherwise check the VideoHelp DVD Player Ratings for the feature you are looking for.

yes i know but i have my reasons why i do this ...

anyway if you select AC3 for your sound in settings they will play from the dvd player or at least my phillips dvd player selecting anything else will give you video but no sound ..

Hence my suggestion to you earlier...

It maybe that the mpegs are NTSC and without AC3 the Philips won't play the sound. Are they NTSC?
