PowerDVD Ultra is what you need.

thanks guys.
Tried the 7.4 Ultra Deluxe version but when i play, right at the start i get a dialog with no message with Yes/No buttons. Either one i press it crashes PowerDvd.

I also use Nero showtime to play back HD DVDs.

I just checked out the Nero site. I didn't know they had come out with a plug in for HD-DVD. This is good news to have another option now. I personally am not to satisfied with powerDVD. There is always some problem with it or something quirky going on.
If you're not satisfied with PowerDVD Ultra, you'll be sorely disappointed with the NERO plugin.

Very odd. Tried 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4 ultra
All i get is PowerDvd crashing or not responding in task manager. Maybe my PC needs to be reimaged. Had this XP OS install since Feb 2006.
I got 7.4 from a newsgroups on alt.binaries.multimedia

This is a bogus version, I wouldn't be surprised if you now have a virus. Btw, it's also an illegal copy.
The latest version from Cyberlink is PowerDVD Ultra 7.3 Build 3104a.

Ouch... thanks for the headsup
Yep lol you are correct that 7.4 you downloaded contained a virus.
Has Troj/IRCBotWK in setup/ Backdoor.Win32.Rbot.adf
So after you deal with whatever it's done , find a legit version or as legit as $100 software that doesn't work for crap can be.
