We would need more info.

What format are the films encoded in? What equipment is on the boat? Has the TV on the boat got a USB port? Has he even got a TV on the boat?

I can think of other questions but that's a start.

Although, when I'm on a boat, I'm too busy casting, catching fish and telling lies :D

AVI files is all it says re code business.

His CD player has a USB port.

The boat is 50ft long and has 2 TV's.

If consumed in moderation during a fishing trip, the refreshments were most inappropriate, at a guess. Either that or you are flagrantly scorning tradition ;)

Pretty sure its a DVD playe,sorry about that.

I will se how he goes with this info and report back.

He spends days away in boat,so that would include the nights,so not much fishing done at night!

1112132 2010-06-21 11:24:00 Has he a screen?
Ask for the make & model number of his equipment if you can, Cicero.
He could use DVDflick to make DVDs of the movies
