I agree totally - have had to remove it more times than I care to mention, the little blighter. PowerDVD so far because I have been too lazy to install something better - must look into Zoom sometime....
i use the dvd program on xbox or a dvd player . For computer i use either WMP or PowerDvd. Mostly Powerdvd but thats only when i have it installed after somethin happends to my computer.
I use to use PowerDVD till the 5.x version would BSOD/bork my box. I made the switch to VideoLAN and havn't looked back. It plays most anything I throw at it.
*edit* - Oh and VideoLAN is 100% free open source.
Thing is PoweDVD just started BSODing my computer with an error code 8E whenever I try to opent he thing (must be some weird clash with my 9600XT on latest drivers?)
So anyway - I checked the poll and just swiched to videolan - now I just have to work out all the configuration so it is simple to start and play (the only thing I liked about PowerDVD was the "click and go"-ness of it)
HMMMmmmm can I have three votes please? (There should have been an option for those that used many players).... I was trying to watch a DVD last night and VideoLan would just crash with the error reporting screen on trying to play - PowerDVD still BSOD's soooooo - I downloaded ZoomPlayer (standard) and used that to watch it.... was a bit stuttery though, not sure I will use it again unless forced to (anyone know best way to make ZoomPlayer better? I was confused by the config and it was late, or do I need a pro version and some downloading to make it better?)
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
