USING DOLBY HEADPHONE
TM
The Dolby Headphone utility lets you enjoy multi-
channel sound sources, such as movies, with realistic
surround sound using your conventional stereo head-
phones.
Dolby Headphone is a signal processing system that
enables your stereo headphones to realistically portray
the sound of a five-speaker playback system.
P O I N T S
I Media discs which do not have the Dolby Surround
5:1 symbol will not support Dolby Headphone.
I After making changes to the Dolby Headphone
feature and clicking OK, wait at least ten seconds
before making another change in order to allow the
system to stabilize.
To use the Dolby Headphone feature, perform the
following steps:
1. Double click the InterVideo WinDVD icon on your
desktop.
2. On the toolbar that appears, click the Properties
button (the fourth button from the left, with the
image of a wrench).
3. On the Properties window, select the Dolby Head-
phone tab.
4. To enable Dolby Headphone, check the Enable
Dolby Headphone box. To change the type of
surround sound, select one of the radio buttons
listed under Room Filter Setting.

5. Click OK. The Dolby Headphone feature will now
be enabled until you disable it by unchecking Enable
Dolby Headphone.
USING THE MEDIA PLAYER ON
BATTERY POWER
Since media player drives consume a lot of power, your
overall battery life will be shorter when operating the
media player drive continuously (such as watching a
DVD movie). Many movie run-times are longer than
your LifeBook notebook can support on a single battery.
If you are watching a DVD movie on battery power you
may need to swap in an additional, charged battery or
attach AC power during the movie to view it in its
entirety.
P O I N T S
Prolonged use of the media player drive, such as
I
watching a DVD movie, will substantially reduce your
notebook's battery life.
I Many movie run-times are longer than your system
can support on a single battery. If you are watching a
DVD movie on battery power you may need to swap
in an additional, charged battery or attach AC power
during the movie to view it in its entirety.
I An additional fully-charged battery is highly recom-
mended if you will be watching DVD movies on bat-
tery power. If you don't have an additional battery,
you may purchase one either on-line at www.fujit-
supc.com or call 1-877-372-3473.
To Watch a Movie on Battery Power:
1. Have an additional fully-charged battery or your AC
adapter ready for use.
2. Start watching your DVD movie.
3. When the low battery warning occurs, immediately
stop the movie and exit the media player.
C A U T I O N
If you do not stop the media player quickly and the
LifeBook notebook attempts to auto-suspend (critical
battery low state) the notebook will shut down
improperly. If this occurs, you will need to perform a
hard reset and follow the instruction, if any, presented
to you before the system will reboot.
4. Manually place your notebook into suspend mode
by depressing the Suspend button and replace the
discharged battery with an additional full-charged
battery. Or if you do not have an additional battery,
you may attach AC power as soon as you see the low
battery warning.
