Using Windows Media Center



Play DVD movies. Resume playing your DVDs where you left off.



Listen to Internet radio stations.



Access streaming music and video subscription services. Some music and video 
subscription services may not be available in all countries/regions.



Open specific windows in Windows Media Center by using the shortcut buttons on 
the remote control.



Easily back up your media files to CD, DVD, or another hard disk drive, such as the 
HP Personal Media Drive and HP Pocket Media Drive (sold separately).



Use the Optimization setting to keep the computer running smoothly.



Use Sleep mode to save power when the computer is not in use. Then, you can 
display the computer desktop instantly by touching a keyboard key or a remote 
control button.

In the Music section, you can quickly browse the entire music library by artist, song, or 
album title, as well as by genre, composer, or year. Windows Media Center automatically 
downloads thumbnails of album art, giving you a very visual way to find the albums that 
you want to hear. You can shuffle and repeat your music, create playlists, apply 
visualizations, and burn playlists to CD or DVD with the push of a button.

You can also start a picture slide show directly from your music library when you are 
selecting or playing your music. If you subscribe to music services, you can now add this 
option directly to the Start menu, next to the Music Library.

It is easy to search for and add music to your library from another Windows-based 
computer in your home.

Windows Media Center can also play Internet radio. You can access various Internet 
radio Web sites.

With Windows Media Center, you can turn your simple photo collection into a cinematic 
slide show that can be shared on the computer or the television in the living room. The Play 
All option on the Start menu enables a full slide show of photos at the click of a button, and 
you can even enjoy the slide show with music from your music collection for a truly 
memorable experience.

If you want to create a slide show with a soundtrack, you can easily create a playlist of 
photos and music to burn to DVD.

NOTE: If your computer came with a rewritable DVD drive, the drive is able to read 
and record to DVD+/-R/-RW media.
