Errm... yes it does read any arbitrary video DVD. That is, will read and
allow you to see the files on the disc and copy then or whatever.
It will not, of course play the video (even my Wintel M/C requires a
program to play the movie).
FWIW this Lite-On CD/DVD reader/writer handles pretty much anything I
throw at it.
Iyonix, RISC OS 5.13, no extras running other than normal Iyonix boot,
plus HID.
So, why does the OP machine not read DVDs ?
I don't see why my Iyonix should be exceptional.
