Use your HP computer as an entertainment hub to socialize via the webcam, enjoy and manage your music, 

and download and watch movies. Or, to make your computer an even more powerful entertainment center, 

connect external devices like a monitor, projector, TV, speakers, or headphones.

Your computer has a webcam (integrated camera) that records video and captures photographs. Some 

models allow you to video conference and chat online using streaming video.

Some products also have an infrared camera that allows you to log in to your computer using facial 

recognition software. For details, see 

. 

To access the camera, type 

camera in the taskbar search box, and then select Camera from the list of 

applications.

On your computer, or on select products using an external optical drive, you can play music CDs, download 

and listen to music, stream audio content from the web (including radio), record audio, or mix audio and video 

to create multimedia. To enhance your listening enjoyment, attach external audio devices such as speakers or 

headphones.

You can attach wired speakers to your computer by connecting them to a USB port or to the audio-out 

(headphone)/audio-in (microphone) combo jack on your computer or on a docking station.
To connect wireless speakers to your computer, follow the device manufacturer's instructions. To connect
