Introduction

DVD player — The on-screen menu for DVDs makes it easy to switch to alternate commentary, language tracks, and subtitles (some models).

Games — Enjoy traditional arcade games such as Mahjong, Video Poker, Slot Machine, and more.

Jukebox — Import music from CDs and then play them through the Moxi Menu. Browse your collection by artist, album, genre, or song. Shuffle the collection by genre, artist, or album.

PC Link — PC Link allows your media center to access photos and music stored on your networked computers. Any shared media are then available for display or play on the TV and home theater audio system. Using Windows Media Connect 2.0 or later, photos and music files appear in the Photos or Jukebox categories, just like photos and music loaded directly on the media center.

PC Link can connect to your home network through Ethernet or with a wireless Ethernet adapter.
