Switching to SpeedRead for Video
Playback
When you are playing a DVD-Video disc that has CSS (copy protection
via the Content Scrambling System), the PX-712 normally plays at a
slow speed with a maximum of 2X CLV speed to reduce drive noise.
You can speed up DVD playback by turning on SpeedRead.
To manually enable SpeedRead and speed up DVD playback:
1. Make sure the PX-712 disc tray is closed and empty.
2. Press and hold the PX-712's eject button for at least 3 seconds. The
LED indicator blinks green three times to indicate SpeedRead will
be active for DVD-Video discs with CSS copy protection.
3. Release the eject button. The disc tray opens.
4. Insert a DVD-Video disc that is equipped with CSS copy protection.
5. Begin playing the disc.
SpeedRead changes the default DVD read speed to 6X-16X CAV for
single layer DVD discs, or 3X-to 8X CAV for dual layer DVD discs.
To manually disable SpeedRead:
You can manually disable SpeedRead and return to normal video
playback operation (for DVD-Video discs with CSS) in either of two
ways:
• Eject the disc.
-or-
• Turn off power to the drive.
NOTE: You can also enable and disable SpeedRead with PlexTools Pro
software. Go to Drive Settings | Advanced and enable or disable
SpeedRead with the check box.
