What is the best software dvd decoder?

[brett1]

Currently I'm using powerdvd 3.0 and I'm pretty impressed. I enjoy the 5.1 playback via my GTXP (which is the only thing I like about the GTXP) Is there any other software player that might have even better picture quality? Or maybe I just don't have the settings tuned right. Movies seem to be very dark when I play them. Should I tell it to manually switch the resolution when played?

Darkness is contrast or gama, that doesn't deal with resolution?


I have used them all at one time or another. Right now I am using powerDVD and I am happy with it.

my contrast is all the way up, and i tried turning my gamma up, but it doesn't affect the movie itself AT ALL.

PowerDVD for me! You could try WinDVD if you don't like PowerDVD

Cinemaster made by Ravisent is also a nice software dvd application. I prefer it over powerDVD for sure.

Is your monitor gamma all the way up? How bout in your video card settings?
