David, I've just watched (1) Starship Troopers and (2) Contact on a computer-based DVD player (Creative Dxr2). Both movies played wonderfully. They were a joy to watch, and the sound (through Bose Acoustimass computer speakers, which includes a subwoofer) was powerful and rich. Starship Troopers played in TV aspect (though you can change that by stretching the Creative screen if you wish), while Contact played in 16:9. Starship Troopers had a side 2, with extra scenes, documentary, etc. Contact had no side 2. Gary Korn
