Huhu,
the son of a single parent has now given her son a smartphone for his birthday and put all her money there.
Her son constantly complained that the one-hour train ride to his work was so boring and he would like to watch movies or make a computer game on the way, but he was too heavy to carry a laptop.
Thus, the acquaintance of Media Markt has opened and inquired. She had asked if there was a place where he could make films and games on the go without carrying a large laptop, but what could be more handy. She was recommended a smartphone. She bought that a few months ago to have a present in time. (The question of my friend: "Can all the existing films with the device look" was answered by the staff with yes.)
Now, however, the question arises, how to bring the Harry Potter DVD on the smartphone, because the movie is yes (on DVD) available.
So what needs to be done so that her son can now see Harry Potter or other DVDs on the smartphone (and offline without boxes for mobile data)?
(He has a legal advisor, streaming services are forbidden to him by the caretaker and thus can't be used, since several months have to be paid, and individual months would be too expensive, especially since yes only a few films are interesting).
The family is technically not well-versed, at home is only a TV with DVD player, but no computer available and kun holds the new smartphone.
What easy way to watch Harry Potter films during the Vahnfahrt?
It is not possible to transfer the DVD to the smartphone. But there are other ways to watch movies with your smartphone. Netflix. He downloads this as an app and has over 100 films to choose from. I do not think the Netflix Harry Potter movies offer but countless other films and series. The prices are per month depending on the subscription (7,88 euro - 11,99 euro) There he can download the movies at home and then look on the go to consume no additional data volume.
But if it really needs to be Harry Potter, he can watch the movies there too, just in English.

(30 days free, can be canceled afterwards)
On a smartphone, you can't watch DVDs because no DVD drive is installed.
So that the little rascal can still come to his pleasure, I would buy him a mini-DVD player (for example, https://www.amazon.de/...071D5BH77/ Please do not forget the headphones, not all fellow travelers want to hear the movie.
Since the employee has probably concealed that he would have to buy the films either via a store and load on the phone, or just try a streaming service, which, of course, requires a correspondingly good Internet connection.
With already owned movies on physical disks, the only thing left to do is to move the movies to a PC (used MakeMKV) and probably the best for the phone to zoom out (use MeGUI for that), then upload it to your phone via file transfer and hope to get one the installed player recognizes the format. To the emergency VLC download.
This is legal as long as the original data media are in their own possession.
It is not possible to transfer the DVD to the smartphone.
Of course its possible. Is only laborious.
The little rascal on the way to work, please… 😏
