Browse and Play Movies in Movie Library
Select the Browse and Play Movies in Movie Library function within the Movie
menu of CyberLink PowerStarter to launch CyberLink PowerDVD.
In the Movie Library you can browse through and play the movie files in your
personal movie library. Movies files are DVD/Blu-ray Disc* folders and individual
video files (movie files you recorded with a PVR) that are saved on your computer's
hard drive.
Browsing Through Movies in the Movie Library
When browsing through the movie files in the Movies/TV tab's Movie Library
section of the media library, you can view their movie cover art, rating information,
and more. Click the down arrow in the top right of the window to filter the movies
by 10 Recently Played Movies or Movies Not Watched Yet if required.
As you browse through the library, note the icons next to each of the movie files.
Their meanings are as follows:
- indicates the movie has not yet been watched.
- indicates the movie was partly watched, but not to the end.
- indicates the movie was previously watched.
If a movie file is not displaying the cover art, you can insert an image file (in the JPG
or PNG format) in the movie file's folder and name it “folder” to use it as the cover
art. You can also right click on the movie file and then select Set Cover Art. In the
Select Image dialog, browse to and then select an image on your computer's hard
drive to use as the cover art.
