TotalMedia Theater gets BD Live "Certified" {Engadget HD}

May 18th 2008 6:39PM Yes, I agree with the other comment. PowerDVD DROPPED the ball on HD DVD support with their cyberlink powerdvd 8 ultra version. At least Arcsoft TotalMedia Extreme is supporting the HD DVD format with their newest version. Thumbs up for Arcsoft. Plus it is less $$$ than the Cyberlink offering. I have experimented with it and with it's latest update (you have to do the update after downloading and installing it), there is HD DVD support and ATI support for XP users also now. I'm still having issues with flickering, but at least it is recognizing the HD DVDs and playing. I may have too slow of a cpu with the Athlon X2 3800+, which is not on their list of recommended CPUs.
