PowerDVD (for models with DVD)

PowerDVD is a high-quality, pure software DVD player that brings high-quality movies and karaoke to your multimedia PC. You can play back high-resolution DVD titles or MPEG-2 files with MPEG-2 video and Dolby Digital (AC-3) audio.

PowerDVD provides a complete set of commands for navigation and advanced features such as multi-angle switching, multi-language and multi-subtitle selection, and parental control. It also has the i-Power Internet Enabling feature, which links to online DVD resources via the Power DVD Desktop Portal Page.

If PowerDVD does not open automatically:

1Click the Start button in the taskbar.

2Highlight All Programs.

3Click the Cyberlink PowerDVD tab.

4Select PowerDVD.

When PowerDVD opens, simply press the play button to begin playback.
