Is a dvd-rom the same thing as a DVD

[houseoconfusion]

I have 2 movies for my kids that i'm not sure where to play?

I'm confused because on the cd it says DVD Video but on the back of the pack it says "Requires a dvd-rom drive with win 95 or higher to access the dvd-rom features (games and aol setup program). The dvd-rom features will not work in a cd-rom drive." So does this mean it won't work on my real dvd player (the kind that hooks to my t.v) or just the games and aol extras won't work on the dvd player but the movies will? please help, dawn

the DVD-rom is a DVD drive on your computer.

They also play in a reg DVD. They are just giving you the DVDrom specs in case you are using a computer to watch it.

nah, I do it all the time. I have a dvdrom in the puter in my room, and a dvd home theater system in the fam room. same disccs, you just have to make sure your DVD drive can handle the disc if you use the puter.
