Due to copyright protection features, certain requirements must be met in order to playback BD movies on a  
computer. When using digital video connections, the monitor and graphics card must support High-bandwidth  
Digital Content Protection (HDCP). Note that most monitors and graphics cards currently don’t support HDCP.  
But, most High Definition TVs and multimedia monitors do support HDCP. Refer to the PC or graphic card  
maker’s web site to see if your card supports HDCP.  
Some video cards that currently support HDCP:  
- nVIDIA: GeForce 7800 GTX 512 / 7900 GT / 7900 GX2 / 7900 GTX / 7950 GX2 / 8600 GS / 8600 GT /

*When using ATI RadeonTM HD 1000 Series Graphic Card, some BLURAY movie title can not be played on  
Windows7 normally. It caused by giving up supporting the device driver of this Graphic Card by ATI RadeonTM  
.
For more information, Please contact to customer service center or website of ATI RadeonTM

Occasionally CD-R and CD-RW discs written by a CD-R/RW drive cannot be read by other  
CD drives. These unreadable discs may need to be read using the CD-R/RW drive they  
were created with. The disc written using the CD-R/RW drive might not be readable by  
CD-ROMs other than Multi-read compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs.  
Multiread compatible (UDF compatible) CD-ROMs are CD-ROMs that can read low  
reflectance and support Packet Write.  
Please note: Certain software (i.e. particularly those including Video playback) may require  
a considerably increased specification PC to give acceptable results. While this Blu-ray  
Disc Rewriter can read DVD-video or BD-MV(BD-ROM) discs, decoding them to  
display on your pc’s monitor requires separate MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding that is done  
by separate hardware (either an MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoder card or MPEG, H.264 or  
VC-1 decoding done by your video card), or separate software that you install to do  
MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 decoding. For further details, refer to the documentation that comes  
with MPEG, H.264 or VC-1 software.

discs, or discs in the shape of a business  
card.
