mini: After much research I am more confused. Please suggest the best mini DVD player to connect to my Camcorder. Also, the best Laptop for the same purpose?What is the best mini DVD player to connect my Sony Camcorder DVD650?What is the purpose of connecting a "miniDVD player" to that miniDVD camcorder? The camcorder has an AV port that can send analog, composite, video out to a monitor - the AV cable was in the box when the camcorder was new. It has a plug on one side that fits the camcorder and three RCA male jacks on the other side - Yellow-video; red-right audio; white-left audio. The "best" laptop for that specific camcorder will be one that has a drawer loading DVD drive. If you want to edit or upload the video stored on those miniDVDs, you will finalize the disc in the camcorder (instructions in the manual), take the disc out, rip the video using a ripper like HandBrake. That ripped file needs to be a format that the video editor can deal with. Windows MovieMaker likes WMV files and Apple iMovie likes MOV files. If you get a laptop with a slot loading internal DVD drive, just get an external drive (like those form LaCie). Transferring the video using a USB cable won't work very well. Also, you need to know that the video from consumer standard definition DVD based camcorders was not meant to be edited. After transferring to the computer, video quality will be very poor.
