WinDVD software is installed on your system.

Certain older CDs and DVDs will not work in conjunc-
tion with the SPDIF connector.

coming out from the SPDIF connector, so do not look
into the connector when inserting the cable, or you can
damage your eyesight.

■
The frequency of the digital sound output from the
SPDIF output connector is fixed to 48KHz. If a
sampling rate convertor is not installed in your
connecting digital electronic device (e.g., MD player),
recording is not possible. Please see the user manuals
for the electronic devices for further details.
■
The sound recorded through connecting a digital
electronic device (e.g., MD player) to the SPDIF
output connector cannot be used as digital output.
All output data from the SPDIF output connector has
copyright protection information included.
■
Please be careful, as there are several types of cables
for connecting a digital electronic device (e.g., MD
player) to the digital audio-out connector, depending
on the connector type. The connector on your com-
puter is an Optical Mini Plug (3.5mm diameter mini
plug)
