In the factory settings, your optical drive is allocated the drive letter “
E:\
”. You can
conveniently access the data on your discs using Windows Explorer (
Computer
). Run
Windows Explorer using the shortcut on the taskbar or by simultaneously pressing the
Windows key and the “
E
” key. When accessing DVD videos (or audio and video fi les on
conventional data CDs), the pre-installed media player is used automatically.
Removing the disc
Do not try to remove the disc from the drive while the PC is
accessing the optical drive.
− In order to remove the disc, press the eject button
4
again.
− Remove the disc and store it in a CD case.
− Close the drive again.
Playing/reading discs
Some discs start automatically when they are inserted.
This depends on the operating system and the
corresponding settings.
The optical drive on your PC is capable of playing audio CDs, DVD fi lms or data discs.
Once a disc has been loaded, a dialogue box opens containing various playback
options. Normally, there will be a number of different options available.
Playback of DVD fi lm titles includes decoding MPEG2 video, digital AC3 audio data and
decoding CSS-protected content.
CSS (sometimes also referred to as Copy Guard) is the name of a data protection
program used by the fi lm industry to protect against illegal copying. Among the many
controls for CSS licensees, the most important of the playback restrictions involve
country-specifi c content. To make it easier to create geographically separate fi lm
releases, DVD titles are coded for specifi c regions. Copyright laws require that each
DVD fi lm be limited to a specifi c region (usually the region where it is sold). DVD fi lm
versions can be published in multiple regions but CSS rules require that each CSS
decoder system may only be used for one region.
The region setting can be changed
up to fi ve times
via
the viewing software before the last setting becomes
permanent. If you then wish to change the region setting
again, this must be carried out by the manufacturer. Any
shipping and confi guration costs must be borne by the
user.
