Review by RenaissanceMan

One thing you’ll notice when you get Windows 10 is that it doesn’t come with a dvd / blu ray player software. You have to dish out extra for that. That one fact alone means that you need a bundle like this if you intend to watch any DVDs or Blurays on your laptop.

Overall this is a great bundle what makes it really awesome is that if you work a bit you can make this thing play your movies from your laptop on your TV and you can control everything via a phone APP. That’s kindof neat. More people these days are just building their home entertainment systems themselves with laptops and TVs and this thing works nice with a ROKU or an Apple TV.

WHY NOT 5 STARSnAnybody that has read my reviews knows that I generally give 5 star reviews, even if I don’t love the product, and only take stars off if there’s something material about the product. Basically, I’m running multiple monitors and I am unable to view movies on anything but the primary monitor. I would prefer to be able to watch movie on any flat panel being being restricted to only the main screen. Now, I’m not entirely sure if that’s the fault of this software or if it’s just because the bus on USB3 is not fast enough to support video coming through to the Hub – so it might not be the software’s fault. I am able to do anything else and I can watch movies from Apple TV on any flat panel from my PC but for some reason, I can’t make this product play movies on anything other than the laptop’s native screen. If I’m doing something wrong, I’m happy to fix it and give this product 5 stars.

OVERALLnGreat product. Great features. It really is essential for Windows 10.
