![]() I already knew the answer but just for you I dug out an old DVD (Desperate Housewives !!) that long ago I was coerced into imaging to an iso. The DVD menus are usualy part of the DVD and other than a static non interactive image wont be transferable to the TV, so you wont be able to navigate the video as you would on a DVD.Ĭonverting to Blu-ray may be an option to preserve the menus, but this wont allow you to escae the physical disc This is one of many cheap DVD players available and requires no technical skill to operate it. "I’m not great or patient with computers, I have a basic windows laptop which I try to avoid using when I can," Somehow I doubt that this description that the o/p has posted about himself applies to you, he is not computer literate unlike yourself. Having the backups is handy though for when a DVD gets damaged! My family like to keep things simple and I don't like having to keep updating the usb stick lol. That's what I did but even so we have reverted to mostly just sticking in a DVD. Having cracked the copy protection as applicable hehe. mp4 - much smaller file sizes but a small quality loss. The simple way would be to reencode the DVD VOBs onto a single. That's just speculation though, the TV being able to handle ISOs with or without a suitable app., and from my reading of it may well be getting too technical for the O/P anyway. It is easy to make digital copies and I can play them on laptops with no DVD drive. I transferred all my audio and video stuff long ago and find it far less trouble and less clunky than messing around with discs. Only the OP knows whether avoiding a DVD player is worth the effort. Programs like VLC also let you select individual items from a menu (but it will be different from the menu presented by the DVD player). The size of the iso file is the same as the contents of the original CD or DVD. If you copy to an iso image as suggested the digital files within it are identical to those on the original disk and so is the quality. Mine does and we occasionally use it, but we still mostly use the actual DVDs! Also, as you are likely to reencode onto your memory stick, those copies will have lost a bit of quality compared to the original DVDs. Some DVD players, even cheap ones, include a memory stick slot and a basic menu system that may be better than your TV, so you could do it that way. Not worth the hassle of keeping the memory stick up to date.
