Media Player Software
With the Dual-Layer Multi-Format DVD Writer and media player software you can play DVD movies and
music CDs on your LIFEBOOK notebook. The media player includes controls which allow you to take
full advantage of the features of a DVD movie, as well as standard features such as fast forward, fast
reverse, pause, etc. With this drive you can also burn onto recordable DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, or CD-
R/RW discs.
Loading Media on Your Drive
To load a disc into your optical drive:
1
Push and release the eject button on the front of the optical drive to open the holder tray. The tray will come out
of the LIFEBOOK notebook a short distance.
2
Gently pull the tray out until a media disc can easily be placed in the tray.
3
Place the media into the tray, label side up, with the hole in the center of the disc. Snap the disc onto the raised
circle in the center of the tray.
4
Gently push the holder tray back in until you hear a click.
