Playing DVDs

 

Hardware

To achieve optimum performance when playing DVDs, you should follow these recommendations:

 

 

Close all open applications before playing a DVD movie.

 

 

You can play DVDs with the software PowerDVD for VAIO.

 

 

If you want to play a DVD and use Giga Pocket* at the same time, please launch Giga Pocket before

 

PowerDVD for VAIO.

 

 

Do not switch power saving modes while playing a DVD.

 

 

Do not use built-in utility applications to speed up the access of discs, because they may cause the system

 

to become unstable.

 

 

Make sure that the screensaver is deactivated.

 

 

Region codes indicators are labelled on the DVDs to indicate in which region and on what type of player

 

you can play the disc. Unless a 2 (Europe belongs to region 2) or ALL (this means that you can play this

 

DVD everywhere in the world) is labelled on your DVD disc or on the packaging, you cannot play the disc

 

on this player.

 

 

Do not try to change the region code settings of the DVD drive. Any difficulties caused by changing the

 

region code settings of the DVD drive are out of warranty.
