I gather they ought to be firewire, but how is it with Zones on
those? My Mac (any Mac) will accept Zone-switch 5 times (the first
being the first time you stick a DVD in it), thus making it only four
before you’re locked into the final Zone. I tried VLC player, but
that didn’t work. Might be because it says "Copy Protected" on it.
Ripping it didn’t work either, still not playable by VLC (and what
that cannot play, is not worth mentioning [Windows Media...]). Thus:
An external unit ought to (in theory) be Zone Free? And/or at least
able to play DVDs in a different Zone than the Mac, so that the Mac’s
Zone-counter doesn’t count?
(I did find a Zone counter resetter, but that was for OS9 bootable
Macs. Where are the equally useful apps for X? )
And I do have a G-series Mac, BTW.
