PowerDVD is a high-quality, pure-software DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) player that
brings high-quality movies and karaoke into your multimedia PC. Using PowerDVD,
you can playback high resolution DVD titles or MPEG-2 files with superb MPEG-2
video and Dolby AC-3 audio quality. Moreover, PowerDVD offers a complete set of
navigation commands, which fully support not only basic operations (such as play, fast
forward, fast backward, stop and pause), but also those advanced features such as
multi-angle viewing, multi-language and multi-subtitle selection, and even parental
control. With PowerDVD and its high-quality audio/video performance on Pentium II
processor-based PCs, no more hardware DVD decoder boards are required, saving
users significant hardware costs. With these great advantages, PowerDVD is
acknowledged as most suitable for home entertainment. From now on, you can easily
enjoy DVD titles in high-resolution display directly from their multimedia PC.
PowerDVD also takes into consideration that some sophisticated display chips are
now equipped with certain hardware component for accelerating Motion
Compensation, an important MPEG decoding operation, or better with IDCT, still
another hardware-accelerating component. And, as we know, PowerDVD will
automatically detect the existence of such display chip to utilize the embedded MPEG
acceleration engine.
