HD-DVD Playing software?

Baddass · 28 Apr 2008 at 13:26

Can someone recommend me a good software prog for playing HD-DVD's via my media centre?

WinXp. I've tried PowerDVD 7, but it seems to be stuttering a lot with my Heroes Season 1 HD-DVD set. It doesnt have problems with Blu-ray, so wanted to try alternative software. I undertsand PowerDVD 8 doesnt offer HD-DVD support?!

Cyberlink PowerDVD 7 HD or CyberLink PowerDVD 7 Ultra, both work well... also (InterVideo) Corel WinDVD 9 Plus Blu-ray works well..

i think media player classic, home cinema can play them

get it from codecs.com , also, run with anydvdhd running

For PowerDVD to get rid of the stuttering make sure you choose auto in the quality settings tab. it only shows up when you have a HDDVD running or paused. You have several settings to do with PQ and I have found only Auto lets it work without stuttering. If you choose best quality or something it keeps on stuttering every few mins.

ah the stuttering doesnt seem to happen with this one if i close AnyDVD HD?! thats odd.....ok, well it's fixed for now. have checked powerDVD and the "auto" option is also enabled

thanks guys
