USING THE MEDIA PLAYER SOFTWARE

Starting a DVD Movie (DVD Models only)

1. Insert the DVD movie into your optical drive. If the

AutoRun feature activates, skip Step 2.

2. The first time you insert a movie into the DVD/CD-

RW tray, you will be prompted to select what you
want the system to do when discs are inserted (e.g.,
start automatically or wait for a prompt). Until you
make a selection, you will receive the same prompt
whenever you insert a disc.

3. Click OK to close the About DVD Player

Performance dialog box and the movie will begin.

Opening the Media Player Control Panel
With most DVD-ROMs, you have the option of altering
how the movie should play and what you wish to view.
You can do this by using the media player control panel
and the mouse.

1. Right-click on the movie screen to open a dropdown

menu for options.

2. Select View, then Player for all the controls avail-

able. This will open the control panel into the
bottom of the screen.

Using the Media Player Control Panel
The media player software allows you to watch the
movie much like a VCR player. You have the option to
pause, rewind, fast-forward and stop the movie at any
point.

1. To Pause the movie, click the on-screen button.

2. To Rewind the movie, click the  button to rewind

to a specific portion of the movie, or the  button
to return to the opening screen.

3. To Fast-forward the movie, click the  button to

forward to a specific portion of the movie, or the
button to jump to the ending credits.

4. To Stop the movie, click the  button.

Exiting the Media Player

1. Click the U located in the upper right corner of the

title bar. This will open a media player dialog box.

2. Click Yes to stop and exit the movie, or No to close

the media player dialog box and return to the movie.

EMERGENCY MEDIA TRAY RELEASE

If for some reason the eject button fails, you can open
the media tray with a paper clip inserted into the eject
hole in the far right side of the front of the tray.
Straighten one side of a paper clip and push it gently into
the hole. The tray will pop out a short distance.
(Figure 4-7)

If you have disabled the Auto Insert
Notification Function, you will have to
start the drive from your desktop, since
your LifeBook notebook will not
automatically recognize that media has
been loaded.

Depending upon its configuration, your
system may not have the media player
software pre-installed. If it is not installed,
reference the documentation that
accompanies the media application.
