Mini DVD or cDVD playing.

Does anyone know if on the newer DVD machines that now play MP3 disks. Do them ones also play the Mini DVD format?
I have a older Thomson DTH3600 and it, as most players will not play
the Mini DVD disks.
Just wondered if the new machines with MP3 have more chance at playing these??

Encore 450 can handle mini DVD, if you can get hold of one. You`ll also need to download the latest firmware

AFAIK everyone in the UK has now sold out, with the next batch due at the end of the month - expect to pay £170-180

Thanks for your help there Clay and i think you have also answered me another question and whether a firmware upgrade would enable some DVD players to maybe read a mini dvd disk.

Yes Boris i know what mini dvd is and is why i was asking if any players out there played the format, as i have made some up and wanted to test them out...
Dont know where you got the idea i meant some smaller disk in physical size from????

Graham, if you wanted more info on mini DVD playback on the Encore, visit http://www.area450.co.uk and check out the Area 450 Forum where one of the visitors have been talking about it. (I`m afraid I know minimal amounts !)
