Finding a quality DVD player that serves you well can be hard in many cases because some don't work with specific formats and others have poor image or sound quality. The WinX DVD Player, however, separates itself from the competition because it provides with you great sound quality, and you have excellent image quality in the video. In addition, WinX DVD Player supports a variety of different formats. Looking at the WinX DVD Player, you have all the functions that you might want from a DVD player, but you also have a floating toolbar on the screen to help you.

Your Language and Menu Options

Everything has been made accessible right from the interface, and you will see the language and menu options from here. Some of the file types that the WinX DVD Player works for includes the WMV, RM, AVI, XVID, MPEG, DAT, ASF, MP3, RMA and WMA. However, looking past the many formats that you can use, you also have a variety of other functions available to you. In fact, you won't find many of the functions on other DVD players that you find on this one. For example, the option to set a bookmark for specific parts of the film. That could have a high value for the college setting where you might be studying a particular film. You can bookmark specific points within the movie more easily, and you can also take screenshots from the program and create a playlist.

High Quality DVD Player

When it comes to the high quality of this DVD player, we have something that remains fairly stupendous. The quality remains consistent, which is another problem with some of the other DVD players.

The Drawbacks

Unfortunately, the WinX DVD Player does have a couple different strikes against it. For example, the installation was full of bugs, and the registration message that continues to pop up every five minutes can be a tad bit annoying. Also, the floating toolbar, while a nice gesture, doesn't disappear as you're watching the video from full-screen mode. You will also see no information as you hover over the options, and arguably, the WinX DVD Player just doesn't look too attractive. You could probably find a much more visually attractive DVD player.

Should you download the WinX DVD Player? That depends on whether or not you can deal with some of the drawbacks, and it also depends on how you see the features. For one person, the unique features of this program will be indispensable, but not everyone will find this as the best choice because they might have no use for what's offered. If you use a lot of the formats mentioned above, this could be a useful program.
