I was hoping that this program would solve a couple of problems (PCFriendly to top the list). While it did remove the PCFriendly attempts to start-up, it limits the user to only a few minutes of DVD viewing (until it's fee is paid).
To be fair, the homepage does mention the time limitation. I just don't feel that an add-on program should knock me out of a major program like PowerDVD.

When saw this on main page thought cool some secret settings but to be honest really see little to nothing feature wise to be paying for. As far as Im aware you dont need to overscan to play on computer monitor and a tool called TvTool for like $12 will do that excellently and will even let you do all the aspect adjusting you want.from what I understand many newer cards/drivers also have OS feature now.
As for the RF and region change feature one can use a free proggy called "DVD Region Killer" to do the same.
Just do not see this as being any sort of really valuble tweaker, at this point, however if more features are added I'd be willing to at least look.

Demo version? What am I supposed to do with this? This is terrible. What kind of demo is this when I can only change maybe one or two features? Lame ones too, I might add.
