interlaced method to display the picture on the screen,
a standard interlaced analog TV will most likely flicker
when displaying thin lines and small text. An interlaced
video display device will produce a lower quality display,
especially when viewing and using the notebook
functions.
Progressive scan video displays a video frame with one
pass of sequential scan lines. A progressive scan TV
displays the entire picture, drawn sequentially from top
to bottom, without the odd/even interlacing. This results
in a fuller, sharper picture and better display quality for
viewing and using the Media Center functions. The
progressive scan picture is also brighter and easier on
your eyes.

In Media Center mode, your notebook detects whether
you are using a VGA or an S-Video display device and

You want to know whether you can burn videos that were
recorded in Media Center mode to a DVD
•
Yes, you can. The Media Center saves recorded videos in
the DVR-MS format. You can burn a DVR-MS file to a DVD
with DVD recording (burning) software, such as
Power2Go, and with the Media Center itself.
You want to know whether you can play recorded videos
on other computers
•
Yes, you can. A DVR-MS file recorded to DVD can be
replayed on another computer with Media Center or on
a computer without Media Center provided that it has a
DVD player and DVD decoder software (such as
PowerDVD). The computer without Media Center must
also have Windows Vista or Windows XP with Service
Pack (SP) 1 or 2, Windows Media Player 9 or later, and the
Windows patch Q810243 Update.
