 Does what it is supposed to do and does it well. January 10, 2007

I had a great deal of trouble finding a DVD player that would work on my system until I tried this one. I had used Orion's program for a while but if you make any changes to your system (even moving a card to a different slot) the program has to be reauthorized which requires several days of back and forth emails. WinDVD has not caused me a moments grief. It is as good as the Orion program and a lot simpler to use. Actually it is better than the Orion program. It works!
 DVD Playback good, nice audio visualization, UPnP really bad August 31, 2006

I downloaded the trial as I was very interested in using this with a TwonkyMedia server for my audio collection, in addition to the DVD playback. The install went well, and it played DVD's fine. I like the smooth reverse which works really well at 1x and 2x smooth reverse.
Playing back MP3's gives a very nice visualization, but there appears to be only one choice.
Unfortunately the UPnP media access seems pretty poor. Pressing the UPnP icon brings up a dialog which lists (tree view) all the categories published by the media server. The worst part was that it doesn't allow you to select multiple tracks from an album and queue them for playback - all you can do is select a single track which it plays, and then stops.
I had some playlists served too. It navigated to them, but simply treated each playlist as another directory (containing the songs of the playlist), allowing you to select one only.
I could select some of the shoutcast radio stations that the Twonky server published - it played them fine, but did not provide any "currently playing" information. This may be a limitation of the data provided by the Twonky server.
For grins I tried the WinDVD Media Center as it seems to think it has better UPnP support. The install never completed, but I could run it. The UI seems more centered around TV display, but it just gave a simple list (of >1800 items) for me to select from - far from useful.
I decided to uninstall both products and try again - but the uninstall didn't remove anything. Makes me want to stay away from interVideo products....
Seems like the best DVD player for the PC. August 15, 2006

I was trying the trial version of WinDVD 7 platinum, which I downloaded from the Intervideo site. So far, WinDVD appears to be the best DVD player for the PC from the few that I've tried. More options, and a better interface.
Also, it's cheaper here at Amazon then on the Intervideo website. Plus, and I feel a big plus, is that you get the disc when you buy on Amazon. On the Intervideo site, it's download only for $6.00 more than here ($49.99). They do have a "backup cd" offer for even more money, but I'm not biting.
Buy it here, and get the disc and program for $6.00 less than a download only. If you need to reformat your PC, a disc is far less complicated and troublesome to reinstall.

I bought this to play DVDs on my PC. Everything seems to work just fine.
Price was better, too.
