Thanks... it's actually something I purchased based on an article on
www.autospeed.com. I bought it in 2000 or so. since then a few of the lights have gone out. I need to just toss it, but that involves scraping it out and pulling all the wire, so I have just let it sit.
Who needs DVD's, digital downloads are where it's at. I actually used this setup to play a couple of DVD's which I ripped to hard drive using DVD 43? and Handbrake. I then converted them to an iphone friendly format and loaded them on the iPhone. Not quick, but works well. Better would be to just use itunes to rent a couple of movies. Personally I don't care to watch them more than once anyway.
