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-ROM 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 DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive hub fingers. If you do not
seat the disc firmly, you could damage your DVD-ROM/CD-ROM drive and you may not be
able to open the tray.
When you finish using a disc, wait until the LED indicator 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” on page 59 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
Maximum Performance. With other profiles, the movies are choppy.
