Installation

The installer file is some 1.6GB, and comes via a downloader of its own. It can pause and resume so this option is quite handy.

Installation is quite lengthy, and you have to stay focused because there are at least two bundles, though legitimate, but nevertheless possibly unwanted for some – a Chrome browser and/or CyberLink toolbar for it, and a QuickTime for Windows by Apple.

Requirements:  Microsoft Windows 8, 7, Vista and XP 32Bit SP3 (For Windows XP, 32 bit with Service Pack 3 is required); screen Resolution 1024 X 768 pixels, 16-bit color or above; memory 512 MB; 2 GB DDR2 or above for editing HD videos; hard disk space 2GB for product installation; 10 GB (20 GB recommended) for DVD production; 60 GB (100 GB recommended) for Blu-ray Disc/AVCHD production.

Finally, if you already have some products by CyberLinks on your computer and they are included in this Media Suite, the installation will overwrite them and some features may be rendered unavailable. Check this out with the developer’s website.

Interface

After peculiar installation, we anticipated a GUI of equal challenge. However, we were pleased to see that the front end menu is very self-descriptive and intuitive. It gives access to all products in the suite and is very convenient. You can also access separate products from CyberLink folder in your start menu without launching the PowerStarter menu. Overall, GUI is modern, intuitive and streamlined. However, the nag screen appears every time you launch a separate product in the trial edition, which is pretty often.

Features

Full description of features takes several pages, so we will resort to enumerating the products: PowerDirector, PhotoDirector, PowerDVD BD Express, Power2Go, MediaShow, WaveEditor  Standard, PowerProducer, MediaEspresso, PowerBackup, PowerDVD Copy, LabelPrint, InstantBurn, PowerDVD Mobile, PowerDirector Mobile, PhotoDirector Mobile.
While all this sounds alluring, there is a downside, too: some of these products have wider functionality when installed as standalone applications.
