Enhance your movie watching experience with tons of cool features and options that you just can’t get from a standard DVD player.

Pros: The biggest feature of this player application is that it plays all kinds of formats of DVDs to make your movie viewing experience hassle free. For example if you have some HD DVD and some in Blu-ray disks, you do not need to organize the different players required by the two different formats. In fact now that HD format has completely lost in the format war it may actually be very hard to find a player that would play the HD DVD. If you do have one, there are no guarantees that it could be maintained easily as time goes by. This application has put together players for all the available formats of DVD content. The formats include even the content recorded on writeable media.

You can place the capture window where you want and size it appropriate to capture only the region you are interested in. You can, of course, decide to capture the full screen too. Captured image is saved through a save command. You can decide to capture a screen with precise dimensions in terms of pixels on two dimensions. Image size menu item provides you those options. The format of capture is the PNG. A thumbnail capture also is possible.

The “Transparent Mode” command preserves the window and the image in transparency: you can use the capture like a tracing paper. There are several effects you can use besides raw capture. Lighten option cranks up the brightness to make the picture lighter, similarly reducing brightness will darken the captured image. One is able to enhance color, contrast and RGB components individually too. Turn the capture into a complete black and white image by getting rid of all the color information- if that is what you need to do. Psychedelic, black and white sketch and color emboss are some more effects available for your use. A “no border “ mode lets you get rid of the windows borders. If you need to create a photo montage, just open several instances of the program, arrange the windows and just capture the images.

Cons: Capture area can only be rectangular. Some kind of mark up tool would have been useful as a content creation tool.
