Playing Files
When you feel like playing files, simply follow the instructions below
to conveniently drag & drop files or to select, assemble, save, and
rearrange playlists for your pleasure.
Note: If you insert a data CD while PowerDVD is in Disc Mode (the
first option under the Select source button menu), PowerDVD will
play back all of the media files on your disc.
Drag & Drop for Playback
The simplest way is to drag & drop a file directly onto the PowerDVD
user interface and it will play right away! This includes all media file
types that are supported by PowerDVD and playlist formats (.m3u
and .pls).
1. Start PowerDVD and open the Windows Explorer (or any
folder).
2. Now, for any drag & drop assignment, it is best to shrink your
Windows Explorer window.
3. Find your file, click it, drag it over to the PowerDVD user
interface, and then drop it.
4. PowerDVD will begin playback.
