Section 1. Optimal modes for MPEG playback
(Update to Appendix G. in the manual.)

These modes are optimized for MPEG video playback. Please be
aware that MPEG movies are always played back in 64000,
regardless of the display setting for Windows or Window 95.

Section 2. DCI Monitor support
================================================================================
This release of the drivers support DCI. Refresh rate for
Windows 95 drivers will be determined by your monitor itself
(providing your monitor supports DCI).
If your monitor does not support DCI, continue to use the
VREFRESH utility to set refresh rates.
================================================================================
Section 3. Playing CD-i type movies using Windows 95
================================================================================
Windows 95 uses CDFS, a new 32-bit device driver which
replaces MSCDEX, the older 16-bit CD-ROM device driver.
CDFS does not support the CD-i file system, and as a
result Windows 95 does not support CD-i movies. To play
CD-i movies with Windows 95, you must manually replace
the CDFS device driver with MSCDEX. Consult your
Windows 95 documentation for further information.
An example is provided below:
-----------------------------
1) In Windows95 full screen DOS, install the cd-rom driver
to your config.sys and mscdex.exe to your autoexec.bat file
in your just as if you were using Windows 3.1. Reboot.
2) In Windows95 Control Panel/System/Performance/File
System/Troubleshooting:
Disable Protect-mode hard disk interrupt handling
Disable all 32-bit protect-mode disk drivers.
3) In Windows95 Control Panel/System/Device Manager:
Remove CD driver under Computer/CD Drives
4) Click OK to Exit and Reboot.
5) Verify in Windows95 Control Panel/System/Device Manager
that CD driver is not listed.
6) Attempt playback (first MPEG file, then VideoCD, then
CD-i).
