External DVD player for Ipad....

Is there a way to hook up an external dvd drive so that you can watch movies on the ipad?
No.
No.
HI,

Not yet but perhaps in the future. Good read here...

Understanding the Target Audience for iPad

"If you still aren’t sold on the Apple iPad think about having a 9.7-inch web connected touchscreen display in your car with the power of a navigation head unit and dvd player. It’s an affordable carputer with multitouch, a high resolution display with amazing viewing angles and it support HD video playback. With a wiring kit to run the iPad into your car speakers, a mounting kit and a FM radio app leads me to believe there’s a bright future for iPad car installers."

There is no way to connect a DVD player. The iPad has no "Video input" as far as I know. iTunes also does not support syncing/ripping DVDs like an audio CD. You can buy or rent movies through iTunes from Apple though.

Another alternative would be Netflix which allows you to watch videos on demand though their App.

Many DVDs these days come with a free digital copy that you can download or activate and then sync it to your iPad.

There are other legal alternatives, but Apple does not like them to be mentioned here so your favorite search engine will have to answer that.

Yes, there is an alternative solution, where you use the DVD drives on any Mac or PC, and stream the content using wifi to the iPad. It's live with no waiting time and works exactly (or close to) an external DVD drive.

We're still having some problems with complicated DVD menus and extras, but all features such as chapter, subtitles, audio and language selection work beautifully...

There is no way to hook up an external DVD drive to iPad, however, iPad can play 720p or 1080p videos, so you can convert your DVD movies to H.264 .mp4 videos first, then sync the output videos to your iPad with iTunes.

To convert DVD to iPad supported videos, you can use the open-source media converter Handbrake. It’s free, it’s enough if your DVDs are not copy-protected. If your DVDs are copy-protected, you may have to use a third-party tool.

There is no way to use a DVD player on any iDevice. NONE.

If you use a Windows computer, you need to install iTunes for Windows to use an iPad with your computer.

I am not a Windows user, so I am not sure how to get photos/images onto your iPad.

You maybe able to get info from your Windows computer to iPad by using special mobile designed drives.

 

There are a few special storage devices for mobile devices. There are portable, bulit-in WiFi hotspot hard drives for mobile devices made by Western Digital and Seagate.

Good Luck!

To get photos/ images from a digital camera onto an iPad, you'll need either or both of these.

Can someone say why not?

seems like a great business opportunity?

the suggustion od ripping it to a HD is just plain dumb. So I stop at a redbox beforr a trip. Oh wait let’s go home for an hour to pirate a dvd. No I just wait to play a dvd in the car that streams to an ipad. Seems easy. Sounds like I should get my engineers making a new product. Seems simple right?

please someone give me a scientific reason why not.

Shouldn’t u be able to take a DVD player on composite out, into a “box’ that can stream via Bluetooth to an iPad? How is that not easy

again please give me a real reason why not. Not just rip ur dvds
