Hi people...


I have 2 Toshiba EP-30 HD DVD PLAYERS and i have recently bought a really rare (which i thought to be) HD DVD!

It actually seems to be a HD DVD ROM disc!

Does anyone know if i can play this on my players by some sort of hack? As i seem to get a message saying "Not a DVD format disc" on the screen!

Or are these for a computer only to play on and if so HOW do i do that on a computer!! As my drives dont reconise the disc either!!

Thanks........... NorwoodHD

have you tried initializing the player , this resets them .. also they maybe faulty discs.

Land of the dead Hd-dvd does this for me sometimes . i cleaned the disc and works sometimes this was new also .. and happens on both my XE1 players , i just put it down to a bad pressed disc .
