a DVD with DVD recording (burning) software, such as
Power2Go, and with the Media Center itself.

replayed on another computer with Media Center or on
a computer that does not have Media Center but does
have a DVD player and DVD decoder software (such as

also have Windows Vista or Windows XP with Service
Pack (SP) 1 or 2, Windows Media Player 9 or later, and
the Windows patch Q810243 Update.

your home DVD player
