In this section you’ll learn
how to play DVD discs
with your Notebook.
This section covers:
Using the DVD Player
Playing a DVD Film
on a TV
Using “Regionalized”
DVDs
Digital Versatile Discs (DVDs)
look like CDs, but they store
films. DVDs store about
28 times more information
than video CDs.
The DVD drive will take a few
seconds to start playback
because it must first determine
the type of media being played.
For the best playback quality,
close all other applications in
the background while playing
aDVD.
Using the DVD Player
(available on select models)
Your Notebook’s DVD Drive reserves the best seat in the house
for you, so you can watch all of your favourite films anytime,
anywhere. The DVD Player is simple and fun to use.
You have two options for starting the DVD Player:
Insert a DVD disc into the DVD drive. After a few seconds,
the Compaq DVD Player control panel opens and
playback begins.
If a DVD disc is already inserted in the drive, start the DVD
player by pressing the Play
button on the status panel
on the front of your Notebook. The Compaq DVD Player
control panel opens and playback begins.
