The Cyberlink Cloud makes it possible to automatically upload photos and videos to an online, safe location in just a few simple steps (supports drag-and-drop), and share it with other people. Instead of the media library, users can resort to the traditional method of playing media, by exploring folders on the local, network, optical and removable locations. The eye view can be swapped to left or right eye image first, the format of the 3D playback source can be set from automatic detection to side-by-side, over/under or 2D format, while the 3D display can be picked from the list. If the monitor supports 3D and it is currently playing a 2D movie, it is possible to adjust the 3D scene depth to reduce eye straining. It can stream its library contents to the remote devices too (all or just a select few). Home Media (DLNA) is a feature that permits users to allow other home media PCs or other kinds of devices to play their media content on the current PowerDVD. The media library is accompanied by a search function and filters for displaying only the 10 most recently played movies and those that weren't watched yet.
The program can automatically download title covers from MoovieLive, save the playback position on exit and resume it at startup, load new movies as soon as PowerDVD is started, as well as access movie reviews, share comments and collect favorite videos.
It is only necessary to specify folders for movies, photos and music separately, in order to automatically scan their contents for the library. Alternatively, users can take their time to organize a library filled with movies, videos, photos and music, which can be regularly accessed afterward to swiftly detect favorite content. When it comes to the types of media it is capable of reading, the tool supports BD/DVD movies which can be immediately played from discs.
The software utility sports a clean and intuitive interface, represented by the main window that shows all available options, an icon created in the system tray at startup for quick access, along with Windows Explorer shell integration for playing selected movies with Cyberlink. These modules can be excluded, however, provided that users don't rush through the wizard stages.Īpproachable interface and importing options
In addition to the program's components, Cyberlink offers to download and install third-party apps that it doesn't really need to work properly, but they are built into the installer with the purpose of generating revenue. The cloud service allows Cyberlink users to take advantage of 10GB space available online (free for 1 year) for uploading media, so that it can be easily accessed from all supported devices. The media library can be populated with movies and photographs that can be quickly located whenever they are needed. Once finished, the tool pops up a welcoming screen with quick links for setting up a media library, redeeming the Cyberlink cloud service, and viewing video tutorials. The installation procedure takes a while to finish, but it does not sport unfamiliar options.
In order to lift all limitations, users may purchase the full package of Cyberlink PowerDVD 14 Ultra for $73.73 / €58.82 (excluding VAT). For instance, it does not support USB synchronization and Home Media Server, or the playback of HECV / H.265 / Blu-ray 3D content along with CPRM / DTCP-IP protected content.
The trial edition can be tested for 30 days and it comes with multiple restrictions. It offers support for remote control when enjoying movies in cinema mode, along with other useful options and configuration settings. To get by for now, you can use the 3 month for $14.99 / quarter or $44.CyberLink PowerDVD is a complex media player that features support for DVDs and Blu-ray discs, in addition to common video, audio and photo files. <= register a login and register your laptop, then file a Technical Inquiry It might be a bug in the distribution build for your laptop, I would complain to Asus, they should give you a download for a Blu-ray version of Asus DVD. When you start up Asus DVD player, do you get the supported logo's screen, including Blu-ray? Kongrosian, my JH came with Asus DVD enabled for blu-ray, but I already have a license for Cyberlink PowerDVD 14, so I use that and uninstalled the Asus DVD player.
No freeware option I guess, but let me know your thoughts.
Here my question: which is the best choice to play blu ray? Cyberlink, Arcsoft or is AsusDVD player able to play blu ray disc too? I purchased a GX750JH, I still don't understand why there isn't a default blu ray player, considering the top line of this product.
