Playing DVDs
Using the WinDVD status bar
The time slider enables you to rapidly move forward or backward
in the DVD content. Move the time slider to the left to move
backward or move it to the right to move forward. The current
time slot is indicated on the right side of the status bar.
The playback speed slider enables you to control the speed at
which the DVD plays. Move the slider to the left to slow the
playback speed or move it to the right to play the DVD faster.
Placing the slider in the center plays the DVD at normal speed,
and enables the audio. The audio is automatically muted at any
other playback speed.
The current chapter indicator displays the DVD chapter that is
currently playing.
Using the WinDVD control panel
The WinDVD control panel resembles the control panel of a
standard home DVD player.
TECHNICAL NOTE: The DVD author determines which
features the DVD supports. Depending on the DVD format
and the computer’s hardware configuration, some of the
control panel features may be unavailable when playing a
DVD. Unsupported features appear gray, and you cannot
select them.
