The appearance of your PC-DVD drive’s front panel may differ from the figure shown.

PC-DVD Encore represents a breakthrough in optical disc technology. A digital video disc (DVD) has a maximum data capacity more than twenty-five times that of an ordinary CD—a full length movie with digital audio can be placed on a single disc! The PC-DVD drive and the Dxr2 decoder card enable you to play full-motion video with multi-channel sound on your personal computer, or on your television.

PC-DVD Encore can play not only the lastest DVD movies but also CD formats such as audio CDs, CD-ROM software, and CD-R.

The basic controls for your PC-DVD drive are on the front panel; the connectors for attaching the power, data, and audio cables are located on the rear panel.
