About the PLAY Function

The PLAY function can play or "read" all audio/video compact discs, and video files (.AVI, .MPG, .MOV). Once you place a disc into the CD-ROM drive and press the PLAY button, the software automatically detects whether the disc is an Audio CD or a Video CD. If neither an audio nor a video disc is in the CD-ROM drive and the PLAY button is pressed, a dialog box will appear to help you find and select a video file to play.


If two CD-ROM drives are installed in your system, only the default drive can be controlled.
