Did not work at all

Pros
Lightweight
Cons
Missing essential components
Summary
I installed PlayDVD on a machine with no other DVD decoder, hoping that it would allow me to play DVDs. It flat-out refused to play any discs that I put in, giving messages such as "Please insert DVD" and "No such drive/directory". A complete disappointment.
A very basic, but functional DVD player!

Pros
Offers good video and audio response and it actually plays a DVD after some searching for controls.
Cons
Very simple user interface. No control panel. No help screen available under the "help" scroll down menu. Offers very few of the features that are available with other DVD players.
Summary
Most disappointing
