Advantages: Reasonably priced, Good Performance

Disadvantages: Low screen res

This product came boxed with the DVD drive, although it retails for between £10 & £20 depending on where you buy.

Installation is easy - just pop in the CD and it will autorun.

According to the instructions, my PC, an AMD 400 should be able to cope and it does.

There is however, a lag of a second or so, every few minutes, but after a while you tend not to notice.

Initially, I found that it wouldn't work, and in fact doesn't work, if your screen is set at higher than 800 x 600.

I have also found that upon start up it tends to stutter on the sound, but this is only whilst the logo loads.

There are a few skins for the player included, and you have the option to hide this altogether. You will also find that the player gives you great control over what you see, and the ability to move between chapters with just a couple of clicks.

Overall, it's a solid performer and well worth investigating. I don't think that I'd pay £20 for it, but you can find it for a lot less without too much trouble.
