The Best Blu-Ray Burning Software

CyberLink PowerDVD 13 Ultra

Touted To Be The Best Blu-Ray Burning Software Available Today!

First and foremost, let me say this: I do not dispute the claim made by whomever made such a comment. I've been using this software for approximately 2 years. It is absolutely wonderful. Not only is it Blu-Ray burning software ... It is also a media player, a media center, and so much more. As a player I have not run across any media that it does not play or burn for that matter (including 3D). It even plays files that VLC Player would not play flawlessly. Another one of the many great features is this: It will sync an iPhone, android tablet, and a Windows based PC. As a matter of fact it will sync all of your devices regardless of platform.

If you like movies & music you will love these features. The media center function (not really a media center) delivers all the trailers for most movie releases. In addition to that bio's on all of the actors and actresses in every movie trailer ... and there are literally hundreds. There is also a music store. You can buy inexpensive royalty free music or some major label artists.

PowerDVD 13 has an enhancement known as True Theater Technology. With this feature you can actually improve the quality of movie files that you play. The aim if you will is to sharpen images, enhance color and lighting, and generally deliver what the CyberLink folks are calling “quality beyond HD”. This feature alone has made it quite enjoyable to watch movies on my computer. Of course my 32" monitor doesn't hurt either ... LOL.

As far as audio is concerned, yep you guessed it, handles that very well also. PowerDVD 13 is capable of playing the higher sound quality files like FLAC, APE, and Lossless without a hitch. Dolby sound on video is as it is suppose to sound ... AWESOME! It has a mini player for music for those times when you don't need all of the bells and whistles of the main player.

Are you a social media junkie? Do you frequent sites like Facebook, Twitter, or other social media sites? PowerDVD 13 allows you to "Like" movies, tunes etc... on Facebook directly from the dashboard. You can also tweet you opinion of a song or movie. How cool is that?

The one downside that I and everyone else will encounter is cover art mismatches. That being said ... I don't know of any player that actually gets this right 100% of the time. I guess some technologies still have a ways to go yet. I could go on and on ... there are many more features. I will end with this: It is a fantastic player that provides a ton of entertainment value. A "MUST HAVE" if the primary function of your computer is for entertainment.
