If you have the HD space to download, play them with VLC.
Heh, didn't know VLC could do taht; k I should be fine then since I just bought a 500 gig drive just for AMVs and it still should have about another 400 left after I rip the footage I need for my next project.

Or you can load the ISOs with a virtual DVD drive such as MagicISO and play it on your computer like a normal DVD

BTW what is the deadlien for getting you blank discs to have mailed back for the contest? My burner is on the fritz so I can't burn the ISOs to my dvds to make a watchable copy.
No one ever knows... everyone always leaves it to the very last minute so we never know how many to expect.

This is more me trying to make sure everyone is aware of the deadlines. I was in grad school... I know how deadlines can slip past with no one noticing...

Forgive me for missing this if it's clearly listed somewhere, but I can't seem to find the appropriate information...

The entry form is necessary to enter the Pro contest. Fine and dandy here; no problem. However, the only mention I see of it with regards to sending it along is if you're sending in DVDs to have burned and sent back to you:

What about digital submissions? Should the PDF be uploaded into the same directory as the video(s)? Should it be sent via snail-mail, regardless?

I thought i read that it had to be a picture or a scan of it uploaded with the video.

PDF, scan, sign with a tablet, or chickenscratch it with MSPaint, same diff as long as it's signed. It's a liability thing, courtesy of the (not so theoretical) possibility of mature content on the discs. Include it with the ftp, email or, or snail mail it.

So as long as I send a Scanned PDF of my filled out hand written form along with my entry on the FTP site I should be fine, right?

ALSO, if I take the download option for the discs (not sending in physical media), do I have to indicate that anywhere
