This was posted on TOR.net today and I was wondering how you get it to work.

We've tried everything that e could think of. Do we need to download something? has anyone managed to make this work?

Morgy, and friend: wanting their special bookmarks and journals.

Whoa! That's interesting! Unfortunately my PC doesn't play DVDs. Does it require a password or an installing code or what? Let me know if you find a solution.

I'm not sure..... When I stuck it in my laptop, it wanted me to install something.... Perhaps that's it? I didn't install it, though (didn't have time). I'll have to poke around and see....

What DVD did you put in? Do you already have a DVD player on your laptop?

elronds_daughter · 12-27-2004, 07:37 PM

Yeah, I've got a DVD player on my laptop and my desktop computer. (I believe [to be official] that it's actually called a "DVD-ROM") And it doesn't matter which disc you put in, it works. Just click "install" when the box that says "InterActual Player" pops up. I did a bit of poking about, and that's what does it. It's very cool...

*grins* 'Tis not from Narnia! 'Tis a translation of her old nick, Dizzy Brunette. Dizzy, or Hwin, for short.

Yeah, I came up with it...

*beams proudly*

Edit: Hwin would like to point out that 'hwin' means 'dizzy/drunk'. She's usually one out of the two.

<enjoys being corrected> Meh, close enough.... <grins at her own stupidity/niavity> There's a horse with that name in the Narnia books.... Anywhee, nice job on the inventing, Morgy.

So, does that mean that us Mac users are left out for this extra feature? It only mentions PCs. That's pretty lame if that's the case. Maybe I'll try putting it in my disk drive just to see what happens.

elronds_daughter · 12-28-2004, 07:47 PM

It might work. I have no idea, since I've never used and don't have a Mac. So go ahead and try!

Beruthiel · 12-29-2004, 04:45 AM

Apparently it doesn't work for region 2 dvds!!

Does anyone know what region New Zealand is in?

Does anyone know if that region has it?
