• Wasted days and wasted nights...and wasted money.

  swanjame12/8/2013

  Pros

  It played fine for a while, until I updated it.

  Cons

  I paid for the 6.0 version not long ago and it was working fine. I got notification that an update to 6.5 was available so I updated. After I got half way through the first Blu-Ray the program crashed, never to load Blu-Ray again. I then played a DVD which worked fine until I selected new features like simHD at which point my whole computer crashed. From that point forward, the simple act of starting the program would crash my computer. I tried a program repair and then a clean reinstall. I can only play DVDs now, and they are herky-jerky.

  Summary

  Until four days ago I loved this program. I can truthfully say that the 6.5 version is, to me, garbage.

• Works with Windows 7 after tweaking

  Jay M6/10/2013

  Pros

  This is a good blu-ray player for PC. I have it on Windows 7 and it performs well, with good features and excellent image and audio quality.

  Cons

  The program required a certain amount of setting adjustment to work properly. I was getting image distortion (heavy pixelation) and horribly distorted audio. After quite a bit of internet searching for answers, and trial and error on my own, I found that --in least in my case-- you need to disable Hardware Accelertion and Windows Aero, on the AV Center drop-down menu. Now it works great, and integrates into Window Media Center so you can control it with a remote

  Summary

  Somewhat pricy, but worth at least the free trial. Some PC owners may need to change settings to make it perform properly.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Jun 10, 2013<p/>Forgot to mention, I am using version 5 of this application

• Absolutely fantastic!

  x-osn3/22/2013

  Pros

  Simple to deploy/use! Also this product integrates within the Windows 8 Media Center if you do install the TotalMedia Theatre 6 only after the Windows Media Center component has been installed!

  Cons

  So far - there aren't any!

  Summary

  Excellent product!

• Crash my computer with Windows 8. Couldn't recover!

  kamenoff3/18/2013

  Pros

  I cannot tell. Very disappointed. Had a lot of expectation of this SW but apparently is very unsatble.

  Cons

  Crashes systems. I would even thinking to try again. If you want to try to crash your computer this is probably the fastests way (Windows 8 running)

  Summary

  Very disappointing experience.
