As you might suspect from the name, the program started life as a tool to play DVD movies (including copy-protected commercial titles) from a PC. Legacy featuresīefore I get to the new stuff-a basic overview of what PowerDVD 20 does and what makes it better than the rest. But it could use some work in the dialogs and menus. CyberlinkĬyberlink’s PC interface is attractive and efficient with basic tasks. And I’m being picky-you’ll adapt in short order. has run into still more problems.To be fair, most video player configuration dialog boxes and menus are even less efficient, while not being nearly as good-looking. It seems that anyone who has tried the HP support suggestion to uninstall Cyberlink PowerDVD 10.
Please advise if there is a simple way to restore Cyberlink PowerDVD to again play all DVDs. Instead, I used this work around to play the DVD: I downloaded the freeware VideoLAN VLC Media Player, version 2.2.2 from this link and then opened Control Panel, Auto Play, DVD Movie and selected "Play DVD Movie (VideoLAN VLC Media Player)". I restarted my computer, but still could not play the DVD. I was able to play a DVD yesterday (The Martian), but when trying to view the DVD again, the same error message appeared (see image below).
I am running Windows 10 Pro, version 1511 (OS Build 10586.104) on my HP ENVY TS m7 Notebook PC. I have exactly the same problem with Cyberlink PowerDVD version 10. I find it odd because in all the decades that I've used and had computers this is the first time I'm being told I have to buy software to be able to use the hardware that came with my computer. I find it odd because in all the decades that I've used and had computers this is the first time I'm being told I have to buy software to be able to use the hardware that came with my wrote: I've searched for Quicktime software, but there doesn't seem to be any available for Windows 8 or 8.1. Unfortunately the Windows Media Player software on my laptop doesn't play DVDs.
It's asking me to buy an upgrade not a full version so this is what leads me to believe it's not a trial version. I've had Windows 8.1 for many months and as I mentioned I was able to play DVD's before with this windows version.Īs far I as I can tell it isn't a trial version.
This did not fix the issue and I am still geting the same message as above. There was one update available for the Cyberlink PowerDVD software and I installed it. As you can see in the image there is an ad for one of the versions. When I click on "learn more" it brings me to a webpage where there are newer versions of cyberlink media software available for purchse. I've had this laptop for a long time and I was able to play DVDs up until a few days ago, but today when I inserted a disc I got this message: I am having trouble playing DVD's on my HP Pavillion g7-2300 notebook.
