To play DVD-ROMs

To achieve optimum performance when playing DVD-ROMs, you should
use the following recommendations: Your computer should not
be connected to the port replicator while playing DVD movies or using
DVD applications. Close any open applications before playing a DVD
movie. The DVD player automatically adjusts the screen properties when
you play a DVD movie. Depending on the display setup properties you
have selected, you may need to use the Fn + F command to expand the
movie to full-screen size.

Be sure to seat the disc firmly over the hub fingers. If you do not seat the disc firmly, you could

damage your DVD-ROM drive and you may not be able to open the tray.

When you finish using a disc, wait until the LED indicator light turns off, then press the Eject

button to remove the disc.

When the computer is in System Suspend or System Hibernation mode, you cannot remove a

disc. See “Controlling Power Management” in the online document Customizing Your VAIO

®

Notebook Computer for more information about System Suspend and System Hibernation

modes.
If the disc does not come out when you press the Eject button, turn off the computer and

insert a thin, pointed object into the manual eject hole.

When playing DVD movies on battery power, set the power management profile to DVD. With

other profiles, the movies are choppy. As an alternative, you can set the power-management

profile to Automatic Profile Selection, which will cause the DVD profile to be selected

automatically whenever you insert a DVD. See “Controlling Power Management” in the

online document Customizing Your VAIO

the power-management profile.
