Using the DVD Player software
This section describes how to use and customize the DVD Player software. You
can find current information on DVD Player software in the README file on
the
User’s Guide and Software CD .
Before using the software
DVMatics requires a compatible video dvice driver and IDE bus mastering in
order to work. See “Appendix C. Customizing the device-driver configuration
settings” on page C-1 for information on enabling DMA bus mastering and for
locating video device drivers.
Using the DVD Player
When you insert a DVD video disc into the DVD-RAM/DVD-R drive, the
DVD Player software will automatically load and begin to play the video disc.
If the DVD disc contains both video and the program content will
automatically play. To view the video content of a video/program DVD disc,
open the DVD player from the Start menu, and click
Play on the graphical
user interface (GUI).
Changing the DVD region code
Regionalization and Copy Protection (the DVD region code) uses the content
scrambling system (CSS) standard to prevent unauthorized duplication of the
intellectual property that is distributed on DVDs. It was originally requested
by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) to address video piracy,
but is applicable to any content. CSS works by inhibiting the transmission of
unencrypted data without proper authorization. Playback systems must license
CSS to decode the encrypted data.
The CSS specification divides the world into seven regions. Content that is
encrypted for one region cannot be read by playback systems for other regions.
While CSS is used to prevent digital copying of the DVD content, the
Macrovision standard prevents analog copying of the DVD content. The
Macrovision standard is a scrambling system that has been widely used by the
movie industry to prevent unauthorized duplication of video content using
commercial VCRs. DVD playback systems must support both CSS and
Macrovision copy protection standards.
The first time that you insert a DVD video disc into the DVD-RAM/DVD-R
drive, you will be prompted to set the region. If you want to play DVDs that
