Does it also play Dvd's? I'm hoping it'll work on my Acer E 15 ES1-511-C59v which has a USB 3.0

Yes if you have a program for it on your computer. This is a very flimsy item. Mine broke after the 3rd use.

I don't know. The one I got a couple of years ago didn't work at all. I threw it away.

I bought this player for an Acer note book and it works great. I just hooked it up to my Mac to see if it worked. It did a great job. Not a bad buy either. I hope this helps.

Yes. It will play CDs. Optical drives like this Samsung are ALL backward compatible to older disc formats. If it plays Bluray, it will play DVD and if it plays DVD, it will play CD.* *Because they still build all Bluray (blue laser) optical drives with DVD/CD (red lasers) as well

I am not the seller, but if it will read a Blu-ray, it will certainly read/play regular DVDs. Plus the specs say it will: look at READ DVD-ROM(which means that it will read DVDs that are already burned with information).

No, it does not. It only plays DVDs from the region where you buy the player. Source: personal experience :(

Absolutely. It plays any DVD Blue Ray or regular. It also will play Music cds and, if you would be so inclined, will read a disc with pictures and allow you to show them on your TV. It will also allow you to acccess the internet if you have a WiFi modem. If you like you can stream movies from Netflix or Amazon it you are a member. Great piece of equipment!

It does have the native ability to play DVDs, but I'm not sure about taking from or sending to external video. Mine is not cabled to be able to do such, but there might be an additional input/output that I'm not aware of.

Yes, this device plays DVD's. It is rated for use with Lenovo computers listed, however. You will, of course, need basic DVD software, like Windows Media player, which should be pre-loaded in most cases or download one of many free products.

All I know to say is try it. It works with USB to hook to my computer. And I can put a DVD or CD into the computer and play it. I don't have an external drive.

My laptop is brand new and the DVD player works fine. I believe that it is going to work in your old laptop, I think you only need an USB connection. But I am not 100% sure.

No it doesn't. You would need to buy an external dvd drive. You won't need any special adapters or anything though; the external dvd drives will plug into a usb port.

Even if your DVD player had a USB port, it does not work this way (USB port would most likely be for upgrading firmware or plugging in compatible media). The media-share device does not have the neccesary drivers to allow it to act as a "Host" device, even for USB DVD/RW drives.

from what I have researched on the internet about this product that my daughter just purchased, the ACER AS1830T, (the standard configuration) does not include a CD or a DVD player. The good news is there are extra USB ports to hook up an "External" CD and/or DVD or Blueray player. She bought the Samsung DVD player listed as an accessory for the ACER AS1830T to ensure compatibility but this one isn't the blueray type. You would need to research which Blueray DVD external players are compatible with both the hardware and the software which is Windows 7 Home Edition, 64-bit. hope this helps

No, it doesn't. It's a really thin laptop, about halfway between the size of a Macbook Pro and Macbook Air (with the Air clearly being too thin to accommodate a DVD player. If you have either a movie or game you want to play, either download a digital copy (e.g. via iTunes or Steam) or buy an external DVD burner that plugs in via USB. The laptop has three USB ports, two on the left and one on the right.

Sandi, This does not have a DVD player, but I fixed that by buying an external CD/DVD player. It was very inexpensive and works perfectly. I like the Acer so much, that it was worth the extra money. I got everything from Amazon. If you plan on using the DVD a lot, maybe you wouldn't want to do this. I only use it to load programs.

I do not know if it will play these disks. I have never tried to play any type of audio disc on it, only out of region DVDs is all I use it for.

Janae, as long as you have some kind of Media Player for DVD playback, it should work. Jeff and Ken H are correct as they use Media Player. I sure hope we answered your question. Happy New Year.
