When you start your DVD for the first time, a Warning dialog box appears, explaining that DVD playback performance is dependent on your overall system configuration and that some DVD titles are protected with an antitaping product provided by Macrovision, Inc.

NOTES: A variety of factors determine the DVD’s playback performance. For more information, read the “Requirements” section in the release notes that came with your DVD software.

The Macrovision product allows you to view your DVD on most televisions, but it distorts the video image if played back from a videotape. The DVD decoder soft- ware provided with your system does not allow you to play back DVDs with graphics cards that contain a TV-out connector.
