I would like to transfer my DVD’s on my Archos through Windows Media Player but I can’t. Why and what should I do to be able to play them on my device?
Some DVD’s are copy-protected and you cannot make copies or transfer them onto your Archos, either through Windows Media Player or by cutting and pasting in Windows Explorer. If the DVD is not copy-protected, you can either convert the DVD to a format readable by the Archos natively (WMV9 or MPEG-4), or you can purchase the Cinema Plug-in which will read MPEG2 file types, the same file type that is inside of the VOB files on the DVD. With this plug-in it is just a matter of copying the .VOB files found on your DVD and pasting them into the Video folder of your Archos. Windows Media Player will not convert a DVD for you. To convert DVDs to a native format mentioned above, you will need a third party software which can rip DVDs. Check out the website www.mpegmobile.com which lists a few of the available third party that can do video conversions and/or DVD ripping. Attention: The converting of a commercial DVD’s to an electronic, transportable format such as MPEG or AVI is known as DVD Ri
