The 3D functionality, that turns normal DVD's into a 3D format, is a great little extra. The TrueTheater functionality (via Settings) offers the ability to upscale non-HD discs to HD like quality, along with numerous other options to get the output exactly how you like it. Add to all this the ability to connect other Devices including using the PowerDVD App as a remote control and this package is swarming with great features. The navigation, controls and image/sound quality for both are top drawer. Whilst this review was focused on the DVD player, I do just want to mention how excellent the Photo slideshow and Music player functionality is. Video formats supported - 3GP, 3G2, ASF, AVC, AVI, DAT, DIV, DivX (some editions only), DVR-MS, FLV, M1V, M2TS, M2V, MOD, MOV, MP4, MPEG, MPG, MPV, TIVO, TOD, TRP, VRO, WTV, MKV, VOB, WMV. The Video tab allows you to play files beyond discs, from both computer and social networking sites.
If you've previously stopped viewing a DVD part way through you get a chance to resume from that last watched position or restart. Once a disc is selected (or inserted) you may still find yourself looking at the movies list so you need to hit the Play button to get things going.

The Movie tab (when active) also acts as a menu to open a DVD from an optical drive (supporting formats such as H.264, DivX Pro and DTS). For buffs I'm sure this could prove really interesting, but if you just want to play your DVD it can get a little annoying (fortunately there is the option to turn it off). The intention is that movie lovers can document the films they've seen and/or own and mark others onto a wish list. With the MoovieLive integrated you get to catch up with what's on in Theaters and what movies are available to buy, with previews and ratings available. There are 5 main tabs across the top giving options for Movie (which is integrated with MoovieLive to give you information about movies in the Theater as well as those available on disc), Video (with online options such as feeds from and upload to YouTube), Photo (again with online connectivity to your Facebook and Flickr accounts if you so desire), Music and Device (where you can connect additional devices such as your Smart phone via the PowerDVD App, which also allows your phone to become your remote control!).Īs this review is primarily about DVD players we'll focus on that area. FeaturesĪ lot of thought has gone into the user interface as it is intuitive to use and looks great. Once the program is installed the Settings menu link is nice and clear at the top of the screen with lots of scope for users to personalize their install, with additional advanced options for those with more demanding requirements. Before you can use the program you also need to register.

Before the in install completes you also need to accept/skip terms for MoovieLive, which is an online database of movie data which is called on by PowerDVD. The install program was pretty standard, with the usual requests for terms acceptance, personalization and file location. Offering both DVD and Video players, as well as functionality for Music and Photos it really is a package to take seriously.Ĭyberlink PowerDVD 22 Ultra is the mid-range offering by Cyberlink for DVD playing, seemingly offering lots of features for a competitive price. Cyberlink PowerDVD 22 Ultra is great value for money for what you get.
