Q Why can’t I play some DVD and Blu-ray discs?

Many discs have copy protection mechanisms that prevent

playback on Intel Wireless Display software version v2.1.0.0 and

Use Intel Wireless Display software to check the wireless

connection and reconnect to Push2TV. Also, try moving your

laptop closer to the adapter or to a location with a clear line of

sight to the adapter.
