Exiting the Media Player

Click Yes to stop and exit the movie, or No to close the media player dialog box and return to the movie.
Using Media Player on Battery Power
Since optical drives consume a lot of power, your overall battery life will be significantly shorter when operating the
optical drive continuously (such as watching a DVD movie) than during standard operation.
