Q: What display settings can I change to get better TV or DVD image quality? A: Adjust the display device brightness, contrast, hue, and saturation. For more information review the FAQ topic at: support.gateway.com/windowsxp/mediacenter/faqs/ Q: Can I burn programs that were recorded with my Media Center computer to a DVD? A: Yes. The Media Center saves recorded programs in the .DVR-MS format. You can burn a .DVR-MS file to a DVD with DVD recording (burning) software, such as Nero Express, and with the Media Center itself. Q: Can I play recorded programs on other computers? A: Yes, a .DVR-MS file recorded to DVD can be replayed on another Media Center computer or on a non-Media Center computer that has a DVD player and DVD decoder software (such as WinDVD). The non-Media Center computer must also have Windows XP with Service Pack (SP) 1, Windows Media Player 9, and the Windows patch Q810243 Update. Q: Can I play recorded programs on my home DVD player? A: Yes. DVDs recorded with the Media Center can be played on a home DVD player. DVDs recorded with Nero Express cannot be played on a home DVD player. Q: Why do I get this "Download Error" message when the Media Center tries to update the Program Guide? A: You must be connected to the Internet to update the Program Guide. Make sure that your Internet account is set up and connected to the Media Center computer. For information about manually updating the Program Guide, see "Manually updating the Media Center Program Guide" on page 19. 24
