Reading PC data (mpeg, avi, mp3, wmv, iso, etc...) from DVD player

[barok]

Ang tanong ko ay ganito:

Many DVD players have a USB port to connect a USB memory stick.

I would like to know if is possible to link a PC to a DVD player through that USB connection, in order to read the data storaged in PC's HDD from the DVD player.

The question is that PC must emulate a USB memory stick. Could it be done? Does it need a virtual flash/usb/memory drive into your PC OS or any special cable, bridge or software?

not possible! I've tried connecting an external hard drive into a usb socket of my pioneer component at home unfortunately it doesn't work. I also tried playing a movie via a usb flash drive but it is not supported. Only mp3, wma and some picture files are supported.

karaniwan ng mga dvd player ngaun nakakabasa na ng wmv at avi(Divx codec) thru usb. sabi pa ng frnd ko pati mpg kaya

AFAIK, hindi pwedeng mag-usap ang 2 USB Host unless merong mamagitan sa kanila. ang kailangan mong gawin USB device, malamang mass storage ang gamit nung host.

Haven't tried it with china made dvd player with usb port. I only tried playing *.avi file in my pioneer component but the result is unsuccessful.

My pioneer dvd player plays divx files(*.avi), maybe isang reason bakit ayaw i-play mga avi file mo baka naka xvid encoded sya.   So far DivX pa lang ang supported ng most players ngayon, pero sa tingin ko mas maganda ang quality ng xvid kesa divx.  Kaya mas popular sya ngayong codec kaysa sa divx.  Try mong basahin sa manual ng component mo kung anong codec ang supported nya.  Minsan nakasulat na ito sa component mismo yung "DivX" na logo.

I mean playing video files from USB thumb drive.

i agree xvid is better than divx(although binaligtad lang ang letters) sa tingin ko sa manual na lang ang reference for that problem

yup its for usb thumb drive and dvd/cd also. Try mo ilagay sa dvd-r or dvdrw kung kaya nya iplay mga avi files mo, kapag hindi pa rin it means na hindi nga nya supported and divx.

DivX ready na DVD player with USB can play DivX encoded files sa USB drive mismo...malamang pwede yun makabit sa usb din ng computer if meron usb bridge..saka may drivers na para dito..

regarding usb hard drives, it needs high current (1-2amps yung sa kin). mababa lang yung kaya ng usb port. may nabasa ako gumawa ng separate power supply para sa hard disk (5v 2amp). you will need the three-way usb connector that comes with the external drive.
