I, too, play DVD's on my computer. I, too, have a DVD player hooked up to my
TV but haven't had anyone over here yet who can show me the layout. I do
have a little vision, so if I know what to do, I believe I can do it. I just
haven't had anyone over here to show me yet, but if there are any accessible
ones out there, I'd definitely be interested. Take care.

*Ponders* Others may have more information on this than I do, but I'll admit
that I play my DVDs on the computer, using any number of applications,
including Intervideo WinDVD player. I'd love to hear others' suggestions on
this.
I do have a DVD player that connects to my TV as well. My first observation
was that the remotes are often designed very well, and you can tell the
arrow keys, the OK button, the numbers, readily by touch.
I've also learned that typically you can put the DVD in, and when it starts
playing music, press OK a couple of times. That will take you into the
feature presentation, but often, accessing the extras is difficult, which is
why I prefer the computer.
If others have other suggestions, I'd be glad to hear them as well.
