Best DVD watching suite ?

Looking for a dvd watching suite, ive heard that Cyberlink PowerDVD software with DTS® and Dolby Digital®-EX decoding is quite good, any tips are appreciated.

Certain DVD's are fun to watch in your birthday suit [if you can get away with it!]

Media Player Classic (or VLC) have a great collection of codecs. I generally use VLC as it gets the codecs as it needs them.

I'd rather use media player classic home cinema edition

(still do when wmp11 doesn't like the file) or as in my case as I have vista ultimate I'll just stick with the built in codecs for dvd playback

Media Player Classic + AC3 filter + FFDshow = Best DVD playback possible!

VLC for DVD playback, MPC for everything else.

Why is VLC better than MPC for DVD playback?

I find the DVD Navigator works more efficiently in VLC and that it's less problematic for DVD specific functions.
