Did you know...
DVD movies can only be
viewed on one display at a
time. If two or more displays
are active (Notebook display
plus TV, for example), the
movie will show as a black box
or blank screen on one of the
displays. This is normal.
Tip
Press and hold the Fn key, and
then press the F3 key to switch
the display from your Notebook
to the TV.
Set up your S-Video connection following the procedures in the
"Common Tasks" chapter of this guide.
1. Once your S-Video connection is properly set up, start the
DVD player by one of these methods:
• Insert a DVD disc into the drive. After a few seconds,
the Compaq DVD Player control panel opens and
playback begins.
• If the disc is already inserted in the DVD drive, press
the Play button on the status panel on the front of
your Notebook. The Compaq DVD Player control panel
opens and playback begins.
2. Press the Fn+F3 keys to switch the display from your
Notebook to the attached TV.
3. You can switch the display from the TV back to your
Notebook at any time by pressing Fn+F3 again.
