The only other issues I ran into were the inability to drag files from an archive directly to PowerDVD (VLC can handle this), and just the audio portion of certain FLV videos being played. A pre-release update mostly fixed this however, I still ran into instances where the program would seem to hang, especially at first run. My initial encounters with PowerDVD 14 were frustrating, due to the way it handled background tasks such as media collection and network path scouting. PowerDVD’s 10-foot interface is much like Windows Media Center’s. There’s also a ten-foot interface for use from your couch with the aforementioned remote software. The interface is handsome and well thought out, with the notably unintuitive exception of having to click on the fast forward icon to slow down a video. Normal playback includes hardware acceleration, but there’s also a CPU mode with TrueTheater enhancements which will make a lot of material-primarily DVDs-look more high-def.
In terms of what you see on the screen, PowerDVD 14 is the best Blu-ray/DVD/video player out there.
