Limitations of USB 1.1
•
USB 1.1 is not fast enough to keep up with the transfer
rate required to record DVDs at the drive's maximum
capability. The slow transfer rate can also prevent
smooth playback of many DVD movie discs. If you are
experiencing these problems, and your HP DVD Movie
Writer is connected to a USB 1.1 port, you may see
improved performance by disconnecting non-active USB
devices.
•
If the drive is connected to a USB 1.1 hub, try bypassing
the hub and connecting the drive directly to your
computer.
•
While these changes may minimally improve
performance, for best results we recommend attaching
the HP DVD Movie Writer to a USB 2.0 port.
Additional information
•
Your HP DVD Movie Writer must be attached to your PC
to transfer video or record DVDs. Make sure you have
installed the software and drivers on your PC before
getting started.
•
The HP DVD Movie Writer has two built-in USB ports.
The port on the back connects to your PC. The accessory
port on the side is intended for connecting external
USB 2.0 or 1.1 devices, such as a digital camera. Note
the accessory USB port will not operate as a pass-
through port when the HP DVD Movie Writer is not
powered on.
•
Video files can be very large. Make sure you have
enough free hard drive space to hold the file you're
transferring or working with. On average, MPEG-2 video
files require about 2.3 GB per 1 hour of video.
•
Working with video can be demanding on your PC.
Make sure your system meets or exceeds the minimum
system requirements.
