System Requirements
The system requirements for CyberLink PowerDVD vary depending on the movie
content you are watching. New 3D technologies require additional hardware to
view 3D movie content. Please see the Hardware Support section on the
CyberLink PowerDVD web site for more details about 3D hardware and graphics
card support.
CyberLink PowerDVD optimizes performance by selecting the appropriate video
de-interlacing algorithm for the available processing power. CyberLink PowerDVD
maintains its support for processors below 1.6 GHz by ensuring that some
CyberLink TrueTheater technologies are turned off by default. CyberLink
PowerDVD's advanced audio and video technologies function better when used
with processors above 2.4 GHz.
