Pocket DVD Studio Review

I got PQDVD so I could put a few DVDs on my 2GB mini SD card which is in my smart-phone. I was impressed with the quality it provided, even though the sound was a little low. I'm not sure if this was the environment I was trying to listen to the movie in, or if I just needed to change audio codecs for a clearer, more crisp audio. However, the picture is great! The feature which lets you scale the aspect ratio of the movie is wonderful, especially since the software is designed for pocket PCs, which generally have a larger screen than a regular smart-phone. You can also completely remove any black bars from your wide screen movies, so you get to take full advantage of your screen.

The only down side I saw to the program is that it requires a previously installed version of DVD player software, like PowerDVD. My computer comes with it, but some computers might not. This might lead to having to make another purchase if you don't have DVD player software, so check around and make sure you do. Sometimes PowerDVD is shipped free with printers and things. Also, while I was recording one of my other DVDs, PQDVD crashed on me and I had to restart it. Once I did, the software was fine. I tried recording the DVD again and it worked just fine, so I'm not sure what caused the first crash, perhaps it was just a freak accident.
