Thank you "Terranq" & "HarryT"
I installed (on the laptop) "Handbrake" and converted my DVD to MP4 (took 2 hours).
Then I moved the converted DVD to the Vox. It sucessfully played using either "Meridian" or "Movies" (Audio and Video). Strangly when I tried to play it using VLC (on the Vox); nothing happened. In fact if I select, on the Vox, "VLC Player"; The words "No Media Files" is displayed on the screen. I do get another mesage which may explain its behavior "This is an early Alpha version (Not Stable). Do you know if a better version is available (for the Vox)
As you may know; the Vox, despite being basically an Android tablet; does not have access to the Android Marketplace.
