A:AnswerHello there. Thank you for reaching out to us with your question. We understand that you're looking to connect your LG SP80NB80 DVD drive to an iPad Air 3rd Gen to watch DVD movies you own.
Unfortunately, the LG SP80NB80 is designed to be used with computers and may not be compatible with the iPad Air 3rd Gen directly due to the lack of appropriate software and hardware support for external DVD drives on iPads. However, you can transfer your DVD movies to a format that is compatible with your iPad using a computer.
Here’s a troubleshooting step you can try: Use your computer to convert the DVD content to a digital format using software like HandBrake. Once converted, transfer the files to your iPad using iTunes or any other file transfer method compatible with iOS.
Please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport if you need further assistance. Our team will be more than happy to help you explore possible solutions. We appreciate your patience. —Renzo
A:AnswerThe LG SP80NB80 is a portable DVD writer that connects to devices via USB. It does not have the capability to connect directly to a smart TV. Instead, you would connect the SP80NB80 to a computer or laptop to read or write DVDs.
Regarding mini DVDs, the SP80NB80 is designed to handle standard-size DVDs and CDs. Mini DVDs, which are smaller than standard DVDs, are not typically supported by most DVD drives, including the SP80NB80. If you need to play mini DVDs, you would require a specialized player that supports them.
For connecting your smart TV to play DVDs, you would need a DVD player or a Blu-ray player with HDMI or other compatible connections to link with the TV.
If you have more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask!

A:AnswerHello there! Thank you for your inquiry about the SP80NB80. We understand how important it is to enjoy your favorite music and movies while on the road.
Unfortunately, the SP80NB80 is designed to be used as a standalone DVD/CD player and typically requires a direct connection to a TV or monitor for playback. Connecting it to your car's USB port may not work, as USB ports in vehicles are generally intended for data transfer or charging rather than audio/video playback.
If you're looking for alternatives, consider using a portable Bluetooth speaker or an FM transmitter that allows you to play CDs through your car’s audio system.

A:AnswerHi there! The LG SP80NB80 is an external USB optical disc drive designed to play and burn CDs, DVDs, and more when connected to a computer. Unfortunately, this device is not compatible with car USB ports, as most car USB systems are designed to read data from USB flash drives or smartphones, not external optical drives.
For playing CDs in your car, you'll need to use a dedicated car CD player (if your car has one) or consider transferring the music from the CDs onto a USB drive or streaming from a mobile device.
