Hi Michael,

I've experienced this error when hooking up my Pismo 500 for TV DVD playback. I confess I haven't searched extensively for the cause, however I tend to find it most often occurs when you simply insert the DVD and allow it to launch the default Apple DVD player for you. Having the DVD player software already launched "before" you insert the DVD seems to reduce the likelihood of this error occurring. Failing that, try using another player (e.g VLC) to control the DVD playback.

HTH,

Matt.

According to the manual that came with my G3 PowerBook 400, the laptop can
be connected to a TV, VCR, or other video device.

I want to play a DVD on my laptop and display it on the screen as well as on a TV. When I tried it yesterday, I kept getting an insufficient memory error
message. DVD player was the only thing running.

The computer has 640 mb ram and is running OS 10.3.5. In addition to trying in Panther I also tried to run DVD player in Classic, but it seems that the
is not supported on a G3 PowerBook.

Can anyone offer any suggestions? Or has Apple removed functionality.

Thank you,

Michael Hawkins.
