In this section you’ll learn
how to play DVD discs with
your Notebook.
This section covers:
• Using the DVD Player
• Using “Regionalized”
DVDs
Digital Versatile Discs (DVDs)
look like CDs, but they store
movies. DVDs store about 28
times more information than
video CDs.
The DVD drive will take a few
seconds to start playback
because it must first determine
the type of media being played.
For the best playback quality,
close all other applications in
the background while playing
a DVD.
Using the DVD Player
(available on select models)
Your Notebook’s DVD drive reserves the best seat in the
house for you, so you can watch all of your favorite movies
anytime, anywhere. The DVD Player is simple and fun to use.
To start the DVD Player:
Insert a DVD disc into the DVD drive. After a few seconds,
the Compaq DVD Player control panel opens and
playback begins.
