About playing DVDs

When you open Media Center and then insert a DVD into your drive, there is a delay of a few seconds before the movie begins playing.

Even though Media Center supports closed captioning, subtitles, and multiple languages, these options appear only if the DVD movie includes them.

If your DVD includes its own playback software, Media Center may not open when you insert the DVD.

To watch your DVD in Media Center, cancel the onscreen messages to use the DVD player software, and then open Media Center.

If you have manually resized the Media Center window, the DVD plays in this same window size.
