1. Updating files/drivers for Windows 95/98/NT 4.0
------------------------------------------------
This upgrade program can be used to update the latest PC-DVD
Encore Dxr3 files/drivers on
a. Windows 95
b. Windows 98
c. Windows NT 4.0
2. Procedure to install the PC-DVD Encore Dxr3 upgrade program
-----------------------------------------------------------
For details of the installation procedure, please refer to the
Readme.1st file.
After running the upgrade program, you must reboot your system
for the changes to take effect.
3. Features added
--------------
1. Windows NT 4.0 Drivers: Windows NT 4.0 drivers support is
added to extend the platform support for PC-DVD Encore Dxr3.
Limitation:
If your current package does not contain the Windows NT 4.0
drivers, and if you have not yet installed your card, then
you must perform the first installation on a Windows 9x
platform. If you do not have a Windows 9x platform, you will
not be able to perform the installation.
Windows NT 4.0 Symmetric Multiple Processing (SMP) is not
supported in this release.
2. SB Live! 4 point surround and AC-3 pass-through support
The 4 point surround speakers support is added to utilize the
4 point surround speakers if you have Creative Sound Blaster
Live! installed on your system. Instead of Dolby Digital 5.1
channel audio output downmixed to stereo surround audio
output through two speakers, you get 4-channel audio output
from your 4-point speakers setup.
The AC-3 pass-through support is added to eliminate the need
to switch between SB Live! digital out and PC-DVD Encore Dxr3
digital out to the digital input of your external receiver
(e.g. Creative Desktop Theater 5.1).
To enable these options:
1) Click Start -> Programs -> PC-DVD Encore -> PC-DVD Player.
2) On the PC-DVD Player, click the Configuration Menu button.
The Configuration dialog box appears with the Audio tabbed
page displayed.
3) On the Audio tabbed page, click the Advanced button.
4) On the Audio Output tabbed page, you can set your audio
output by selecting either the 4 point surround option
button or the AC-3 pass-through option button on the
SBLive! group box.
For the new setting to take effect, you need to relaunch
the player. These options are available only for Windows
95 and Windows 98 and only if SB Live! is detected.
3. Force TV output to PAL-60 format
This feature lets you have a additional PAL TV format option.
4. Bug Fixes
---------
The following bug fixes have been solved.
1. Last chapter not playable on some DVD titles.
2. PAL TV output are offset upwards.
