Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have been a Cyberlink PowerDVD user for many years. However, PowerDVD 8 Ultra and PowerDVD 9 Ultra are just plain bad for blu-ray. Don't take my word for it - just check all the user complaints on their website forum! These problems are not new. Update after update does not fix the multitude of problems. If you ever do get a response from tech support to your email, what you get is a script of "solutions" - like uninstall and re-install - that don't "solve" the problem! Of course you can always PAY for live tech support - that's a good revenue source for Cyberlink too. Just don't expect a real solution, because they know they're selling something that doesn't work for blu-ray.
It's also clear from the complaints on Cyberlink's website forum that they are less than responsive to these problems. Their answer to the many problems with PowerDVD 8 Ultra blu-ray playback was to release another version (PowerDVD 9 Ultra) that doesn't solve any of the problems of the prior version, plus adding some new ones as well. It serves admirably to generate new revenue for Cyberlink - just don't make the mistake of assuming it will do anything for you in return.
Summary: If you just want to playback regular DVDs on your computer, don't pay the premium price for the Ultra versions. You can buy the cheaper Deluxe versions. Playback of regular DVDs is excellent. If you actually want to playback blu-ray discs, you're going to have problems.
