I was a fun of PowerDVD and i tried out the PowerDVD XP 4.0 version. I bought it from a local store. I used it with my laptop with S3 Twister graphic card (with TV-OUT and iDCT acceleration) and nothing seems to work. When i try to load a DVD movie, the system just freezes and restarts, saying that i have a problem with my graphic card. I could only see a movie when i turned OFF hardware acceleration. So, i downloaded WinDVD 3.1 and i works a lot better than PowerDvD. i can even use all hardware acceleration features of my graphic card. WinDVD seems to have less features than PowerDVD, but all that a program like this needs to do is PlAY DVD titles, and PowerDVD fails. If anyone has any suggestion how to solve this problem with PowerDVD, reply. It's a petty that Cyberlink created such a great program with no compatibility.
