"Mini" DVD?

Peter Marlowe · 04-02-2009, 06:11 PM

Do these "Mini" DVDs play in DVD/Blu-ray players, or is some kind of special "adapter" for the disc tray needed?

There should be an inner ridge on the disc tray to fit the smaller DVD's.

Thanks Sig; I'll check my player's tray -- so you can just "drop and play" these mini DVDs?

Yeah Peter just drop them in and you should be good to go. I only found out myself a while back. Somebody gave me a mini DVD out of a camcorder and said play that, i said where can i play it! He then showed me the inner ridge on the tray. I didn't even know it had a ridge there! I looked at all the players in my house and they all had them and i had never even noticed before!

Thanks a bunch, Sig! I did indeed just dropped it in -- I saw the indentation for the smaller disc -- and it played just fine; it was an "NFL Greatest Rivalries" disc and it looked awesome as a matter of fact...

Thanks again, my friend!

I think it could play in DVD/Blue-ray player.Coz the mini DVD gets the same format with the normal DVD.

The only real issue are slot loader devices, which I've not seen on stand alone players. But in those rare cases we have adapter rings.
