Arcsoft used to sell Total Media Theatre, but they discontinued it back around September.

you have two choices: either PowerDVD, or WinDVD.

PowerDVD is the best of what's left, but you'll have to set it to not run all the time, otherwise, it'll eat up resources with your laptop/PC when you're not using PowerDVD.

WinDVD is ok, but it doesn't play ripped Blu-ray folders. PowerDVD does.

Both also has Cinavia implemented in their programs, so you need AnyDVD HD enabled before you play any disc or ripped ISO/Blu-ray folder/DVD Folder that has Cinavia in it.

Me? I have both, and use both in checking whether a rip that becomes an ISO/Blu-ray folder/DVD Folder was done right.

You can also buy Nero, but I don't like it, and most of the people on this Forum don't care for it as well.

Good luck.
 
I see powerdvd 13 pro on ebay for £29.99.
Would that be adequate for my neanderthalic needs

I guess. It does depend on your PC specs, and also whether that deal is legit, and not a crack or rip-off.
 
Ok i bought powerdvd 14 ultra. With media express and power2go 9.
Also got the back up disc :)

Please note this fact: purchase PowerDVD from a reputable site like this one, or the Amazon one for your country.

Otherwise, you might have bought a whole lot of trouble, i.e. spyware, Trojans, and the like.
 
I did, i bought it through the upgrade link in powerdvd 12.

VLC Media Player works fine for me and its shareware.

It doesn't play back full Blu-ray disc structures, nor does it know which is the correct playlist on screenpass discs, it like many others guesses at which playlist to play back and is usually wrong.
