How to convert and transfer DVD video files to Sony Walkman?
261944
I have had great success with a $50 software called DVDFab Platinum ($50 on line). After several tries on different outout formats, choosing the Sony PSP output created a file that I copied directly into the Sony MP3 video file. I have been enjoying mobile movies since. One tip: copy only the movie file to the MP3. DVDFab Plat creates many subfolders necessary for the PSP. The MP3 will not read that far into the video folders. $50 for DVDFab has been worthwhile because all in one package is a security decoder/ripper, copy out to many formats including burning your own DVD. Good luck.

Hi K., you have 2 options for copying songs. 1 is by the use a software, like Windows Media Player or you can drag and drop the songs to your Walkman when connected on a computer via USB port. -Vincent

It appears that this DVD player will not support Windows files: http://www.hhgregg.com/toshiba-progressive-scan-dvd-player/item/SD4300 -

Sorry I don't know to what you are referring regarding the $80/year software. All you need is a media player program such as Windows Media Player, VLC or Media Player Classic, all of which you can download for free. Plug in the drive, insert the disc then open the media player and instruct it to play using the external drive, using whichever letter your computer designates for it. I just played a DVD using the drive and VLC with no problem so it should work for you. Hope this helps.

You would either have to do it on another computer and transfer to a memory card; or I believe there is a way to do it via home network. Obviously, this will be difficult/impossible if you dont have a computer with a DVD drive. Ofcourse you can buy an external DVD and save movies to the HD, but those drives arent very cheap. If I remember correctly, it is a multi-step process and you will need to download a couple free programs. Maybe the following link can help start you off:http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/rip-a-dvd/

Buy a divx dvd player. The Philips DVP5960 can play divx files right from a usb drive.

The best way to transfere your videos from camera to DVDs is to connect the A/V cable from camera to DVD recorder , then play video on camera and press record on your DVD recorder .

You are encountering a common and easily fixable problem. DVDs encode audio with the Dolby Digital codec (AAC). The Zen does not support this encoding because the codec is proprietary, thus expensive to license. Makes for a bit of extra work sometimes but it makes the retail price cheaper. Anyway, just tell your DVD ripper to convert the audio to the MP3 codec. If you need to, download the free Lame Mp3 codec pack. Luckily most movies and videos that you can download on the internet use Mp3 audio. It doesn't really even make much sense for a portable media device to support high definition, surround sound audio. Unless you plan on carrying half a dozen speakers and a subwoofer onto the morning train. You are encountering a common and easily fixable problem.

Pop a cassette tape into the player. Plug the player into the usb port, press the play button and use the software to transfer it over. It was very easy to do and you even have the option of editing if you want to do that. One of the best purchases I have made in a long time. Very easy to use and more than worth the price.

Hi L, Sony Walkman supports MP3, WMA, AAC or L-PCM music files. All files will be played in the order you copied the files on the folder except you press Shuffle option. -Vincent

I don't know if you'll ever see this reply but it's worth getting the word out anyway. I recently purchased the new Small Wonder combo kit from TigerDirect.com. RCA has put out this DVD burner/Small Wonder camera combo package that is PERFECT for what you are asking about. The camera docks right onto the DVD burner, which connects to a t.v., and the videos will transfer directly into the DVD burner! It's so cool and easy. Plus, the DVD burner acts a stand-alone DVD player AND it will take inputs from other transmission sources (video camera, t.v. tuner, etc). This is a great product and a great value!

That may be the case but to convert a DVD to a file on the PC you need a good program to convert it to that specific device format ie. mp4, AAC, WMV and so on. With Wondershare you just choose your specific device from a list and it does the rest for you.

In order to transfer the albums to DVD's, you need to connect this unit to a computer. as the album plays it uploads to the computer. You then need to separate the tracks and add the song titles, then burn a CD. It works well, but it is a bit time consuming.

If you have a music CD and you are using a Windows based computer like Windows 7 or 8, you can ripped music tracks out on the music CD and transfer or download it to this Sony Walkman. -Ely
