I love the "video on desktop" option What DVD player do you guys use? I only use it for testing burned dvd's myself, but I thought it's cool.

the ati dvd player has a similar option i believe. i first discovered it while messing with my aiw7500

use Power DVD cause it came with my DVD drive

yep I like PowerDVD too, but recently got stuck on WinDVD. Wow, moved that fast? I thought this was OT, aimed at the usual OT people. I feel *violated* Oh well.

WinDVD feels bloated to me..takes a long time to load up. PowerDVD feels better to me. Quality is about the same IMHO

I only use PowerDVD 4.0 and I find it to "hang" more often than not. For some reason, I have yet to give WINDVD a try...

PowerDVD spontaneously reboots my computer for some odd reason. I like WinDVD... does seem slightly bloated, but with today's systems, you can't really tell anyways.

 

[Doh!]

PowerDVD released patch for XP few months back. Get the latest version if you haven't already.

I have WinDVD and PowerDVD, but I've been using WinDVD over PowerDVD since I first got it. Yeah, it seems to be a bit bloated/unstable at times, but I half think that's my very fussy DVDROM (Pioneer, go figure)

WinDVD quality seems a little bit better- use the Movie Effector adjustments to see a big difference. You have to turn hardware acceleration off to use it.
