Can I play a DVD on My Computer, Projector, or TV?

Yes, you can operate the DVD from an inexpensive stand-alone DVD Player that is hooked to a TV or Projector in your sanctuary. For the computer, in addition to a DVD-ROM drive you must have either a) extra hardware to decode MPEG-2 video and Dolby Digital or MPEG-2 audio, or b) your computer must be fast enough to handle software decoding. Good-quality software-only playback requires a 350-MHz Pentium II or a Mac G4. Click here for an exhaustive list of commonly asked questions and answers about DVD. Three graphics files for each worship experience can also be found in a separate folder on the DVD-ROM disk. These files, of course, are only accessible from a computer and not from a stand-alone DVD player.
