Setting Autoplay Preferences - HP Compaq Presario,Presario R4000 Hardware And Software Manual

Protecting Playback
To prevent the loss of playback or playback quality:
■
For optimal playback quality, save your work and close all
open applications before playing a CD or a DVD.
■
Dock or undock the notebook from an optional docking
device before or after playing a disc, not while playing a disc.
Do not initiate standby or hibernation while playing a disc. If
standby or hibernation is initiated while a disc is in use, you may
see the warning message "Putting the computer into hibernation
or standby might stop the playback. Do you want to continue?" If
this message is displayed, select No.

Setting AutoPlay Preferences

AutoPlay is the operating system feature that determines how the
notebook responds when you access files on a removable storage
device such as an optical disc.
AutoPlay default settings vary by notebook model and
configuration. For example, the first time you insert a disc into an
optical drive and close the tray, the disc may begin playing or the
AutoPlay pop-up window may be displayed. If the AutoPlay
pop-up window is displayed, select your preferences as instructed
on the screen.
The default AutoPlay settings can be changed. For example, you
can set the notebook to display a slide show of the pictures on a
CD containing digital photographs, begin playing the first track
of a CD containing music, or display the names of the folders and
files on a CD containing data files. You can also set the notebook
to prompt you for a preference each time you insert a disc or to do
nothing when you insert a disc.
At many AutoPlay settings, there may be a pause of several
seconds while AutoPlay opens both the disc and the associated
disc player application.
