"My FireTV will hopefully arrive next week. I have a USB
BR/DVD-drive lying around, which I want to use with the FireTV. Will I
be able to play DVDs from the FireTV?"
Of course, you can stream online audio/video content to your local
HDTV, eg. Netflix, Amazon Instant Video, Hulu Plus, YouTube, and HBO GO
to Amazon Fire TV connected HDTV for instant viewing. However, it is
still difficult to play DVD movie on Amazon Fire TV directly.
According to its specs, it shows that Amazon Fire TV video format
is limited to H.263, H.264, MPEG4-SP and VC1. To get DVD files onto
Amazon Fire TV for streaming and playing correctly, you need to find a
DVD ripping tool and then convert DVD to Amazon Fire TV readable format
like H.264 MP4.
What I used is Brorsoft DVD Ripper.
With it, I can rip and convert DVD to Fire TV with the best quality. It
enables you to convert DVD to almost all regular video formats like
MP4, MOV, MKV, FLV, WMV, AVI, etc. and even extract MP3, WMA, FLAC, OGG,
etc. audio from DVD movies. If you are a Mac user, pls turn to Brorsoft
DVD Ripper for Mac. Now, download the software and start ripping.
How to Copy DVD movie on Amazon Fire TV
One: Run the best DVD to Amazon Fire TV and insert
the disc into the DVD room, click "Load" disc button to import the file
into the program. This program also supports DVD folder, ISO or IFO
files.
Two: Click Format bar and choose MP4 from Common Video, which can be recognized by Amazon Fire TV perfectly.
Three: Finally, tap Convert on the main interface
to start converting your DVD movies to Amazon Fire TV playable video
files. After conversion, get the ripped videos under "Open" panel and
then put them to your Amazon Fire TV for enjoy on the go.
