To watch it on a standalone DVD played you'd also need a program to convert the files into a suitable format. Like .VOB or .OGM or something.

Nope, DVD players read MPEG-2. By the way, if you are going to try to convert the episodes to MPEG-2 to play them on a DVD player, you'll only get about 4 to 5 episodes max. In my opinion, a Divx DVD player or a Modded Xbox is the best solution for downloaded anime.
Aww... too bad for me. :-(Originally posted by: stos289

I guess what I'm going to have to do is just back them up on cd's... and play them on my computer whenever I want.
Although, this is assuming I get a disc drive that can burn DVD's (I assumed, originally, that my disc drive that can burn, and READ dvd's could burn DVD's... but I guess I was wrong).
If I get such a disc drive, to burn onto DVD discs... I'll make some random attempts anyways, :-P (4-5 episodes max doesn't sound like much...).
Isn't there another way, I think I've seen my bro do this before.
He used a cable and hooked it from his computer to a TV and he was playing street fighter on his TV through his comp. Could this be done for watching movies as well?
And, if so what kind of cable is needed? Is it more complicated than just getting a Divx DVD player?
