As the first region and code free DVD Player, DVD X Player allows users to watch all movies from all regions. By using this program, you could play movies which might be changed 5 times of its region code; thus you needn't hack DVD drive (flash firmware) which is very dangerous.
 DVD X Player is versatile which excels at video effect as well that of audio. It could remember where you pause the program and it will inquire you next time if you would like to start from the pause last time. You could also put a bookmark to where you stop the movie out of hurry. It supports almost every popular format: DivX, MPEG4, RM, QuickTime, WMV, WMV-HD, MacroMedia Flash and so on. You may notice the different interfaces of it - it is not because the different versions of DVD X Player, but the skinnable feature of it. Black is never out while pitch black makes the program more fashionable. While the alternative one is also an eye - catching skin which matches the program well.
Editor's Review--Pros: DVD X Player is both easier to use, quicker, and looks a lot better than other DVD players I have experienced. Cons: When you record DVD into MPEG2 Video, 45 Min is the upper limit. Benefits:
DVD X Player is a great facility, which is a bug of DVD code protection. You can play all region DVD on all DVD drives, so you don’t need to hack DVD drives to cater for different region codes.
I often enjoy wonderful movies when I am off duty, however, sometimes I have to stop to deal with something important....

There's hardly a person who is unfamiliar with this icon. To many users, RealPlayer does a pretty nice job for playing videos, let alone audios. Since RealPlayer has been developing years, the most impressive version is certainly the latest one.
RealPlayer 11 is greatly improved as well as revised - an overall revisal which differentiates from its historical versions to a large extent. In order to change the traditional way of download video files (you could not view the downloaded files while the download process is on.), RealPlayer 11 breaks it thus users could view the film during the download process . It cannot be seen too considerate, amazing! Since V10 is revised by the publishers which is added the functions for playing QuickTime, MPEG-4 and almost all popular formats both in video and audio files. Besides above, some special formats are supported only by RealPlayer, such as RM and RMVB, which are the most popular formats now.
As a freeware, RealPlayer will be developed more and more fashionable and the interface is also a great change.
RealPlayer 11 discards the familiar skin which used to be mainly in light colors, has put on its new clothes - the black coat looks totally different from the former versions and it could show us more gorgeous functions: download AAC from iTune Music Store; easily burn your CDs; convert your Video files into DVDs.... the easiest of RealPlayer's usage - one click to download and record of web videos!
Editor's Review--Strength:As a dinosaur of media player, RealPlayer is a well - known brand. There seems to be no changes in the historical versions, yet RealPlayer 11 has changed a lot in functions--we could preview video files during the tool is downloading them. Besides it, the wide range of supported formats could be more: rm, rmvb, flv, mov and mp4. You can pause and record live streams and use it to encode purchased tracks in AAC at 192Kbps.
