Exploring Your Computer’s Features
Using the i.LINK® port
5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3
Using the i.LINK
®
port
The i.LINK
®
port on the left side of the computer provides an
extremely fast data transfer rate.
In addition to high speed, the i.LINK
®
port also supports
isochronous data transfer (the delivery of data at a guaranteed
rate). This makes it ideal for devices that transfer high levels
of data in real-time, such as video devices.
As with USB ports, the i.LINK
®
port supports both Plug-and-
Play (automatic configuration) and hot swapping (the ability
to connect and disconnect devices while the computer is on).
Using QosmioPlayer
Your computer includes the QosmioPlayer software, allowing
you to watch television (if the computer is connected to a
television or video source), play audio CDs, or watch DVD-
video without having to launch the operating system.
❖ When using QosmioPlayer, some MCE Remote Control
options will not function.
❖ QosmioPlayer does not support HD DVD playback
function.
The QosmioPlayer is not a Windows-based application. When
using the QosmioPlayer, the Audio / Video recording feature
will not function.
