Location and Function of Controls

❏ 

Occasionally CD-R and CD-RW discs written by a CD-R/RW drive cannot be read by other CD drives*.
These unreadable discs may need to be read using the CD-R/RW drive they were created with

The disc written using the CD-R/RW drive might not be readable by CD-ROMs other than 
Multi-read compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs
Multiread compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs are:
1. CD-ROMs that can read low reflectance.        2. CD-ROMs that support Packet Write.

❏ 

Please note: 

Certain software (i.e. particularly those including Video playback) may require a

considerably increased specification PC to give acceptable results. While this Super Multi DVD
Rewriter can read DVD-video discs, decoding them to display on your pc’s monitor requires 
separate MPEG decoding that is done by separate hardware (either an MPEG decoder card or
MPEG decoding done by your video card), or separate software that you install to do MPEG
decoding. For further details, refer to the documentation that comes with MPEG software.
