Contest – CyberLink PowerDVD 11

powerdvd.jpg

THANK FOR PARTICIPATING, THIS CONTEST HAS ENDED!!!

Are you getting tired of free stuff? We’re not either! This week we have a copy of CyberLink PowerDVD 11 Ultra, the brand new Blu-ray and movie playback software!

We took an in-depth look at the latest iteration of PowerDVD 11 Ultra and were really pleased at their improvements throughout for a quality movie experience for all home theater PC users…especially now that it supports your backed up Blu-rays!

Taking a first look at the standalone application, PowerDVD 11’s roots are quite evident with little significant change in the layout and presentation of the user interface (UI) compared to previous versions.  While PDVD 11 looks the same there are some significant differences lurking beneath the skin, most notably the return of BDMV (Blu-ray folders) playback.

    I have never used it but would assume that my favorite feature would be that it hooks into MCE. Maybe I should get a copy for free so I can answer this question better….

  • The only feature I can see

    The only feature I can see that’s missing that I’d LOVE to see is the ability to tie PowerDVD into XBMC so I can FULLY centralize all my media playing into one program

    Here’s one of each. My favorite feature is that they added back playing from Blu-ray folders. The feature that I wish it had is automatic refresh rate switching.

    It looks like they need to keep working on the MCE integration, though, so  even more improvement on the integration is my “wish it had” feature.
