Notes about playing DVD video
• Compatibility with the wide range of DVDs in circulation cannot be
guaranteed. Depending on the disc, there may be functional limitations,
sound interruptions, or dropped frames. Some discs may not play at all.
• During playback of DVD video discs, do not attempt to modify display
settings such as the screen resolution or color quality. Doing so could
destabilize the operation of the personal computer or make it impossible to
modify settings.
Always close the DVD playback software before modifying
display settings.
• Do not press the drive’s eject button during playback of DVD video
discs.
• Make sure that your personal computer’s power management function is
not enabled during data writing.
Be sure to quit DVD playback software if the power management
function is activated. For details on the power management function,
refer to the manuals provided with your personal computer.
• During playback of some DVD video discs with high quality sound (20-
bit or 24-bit sampling), noise during playback or other problems may
occur. When playing such discs via the personal computer connected to
an audio system, turn down the volume, and test for normal playback
first to prevent the possibility of damage to the speakers.
• When playing back a DVD video disc, use the software that is
preinstalled on the personal computer.
• Do not use a screen saver while playing a DVD video with DVD
playback software.
