ArcSoft TotalMedia Theater with SimHD, or how to watch normal DVD at Full HD resolution - video tutorial

Hi friends, in this tutorial you will find a very interesting player, it is about ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre from it do some things that other players can not do.
The most interesting function that TotalMedia Theater has is SimHD, this is a plugin that helps us watch DVDs and MPEG 2 files at a much higher resolution, up to 1920 × 1080, this is a wonderful thing, if we we think that in general people have collected DVD collections over time, paid for them, spent large sums on these DVDs that have an SD (standard definition) resolution.
Now, when LCDs HD Ready or Full HD ones are fashionable, people have noticed that their favorite DVD Uriu not see so well on those high-definition televisions. SimHD technology has come a powerful time for users, allowing them to enjoy and collection of DVDs, but also their new TVs and performance, perhaps too powerful for the existing signal cable at this point.
Another interesting option that has TotalMedia Theatre is able to accelerate content heavy (HD) video card with technologies parallel processing, Cuda from Nvidia and Stream from Ati-AMD, take some of the weight off processor and graphics card and a divide, it is well known that video cards are extremely efficient execution of repetitive tasks.
I discovered this player when buying a Netbook Asus EeePC 1201 N, although it has an Intel Atom 330 dual core processor with hyper threading (4 threads in Task Manager) on a platform NVIDIA ION was not able to HD content play in optimal conditions, to movies in AVI format at lower resolution, Intel Atom processor is doing well 330, but the H264 and higher resolution than SD, flounder. I went to hunt players, believe me I've tried many, finally I stopped at TotalMedia Theatre from ArcSoft, he is doing very well with any format because it uses hardware acceleration of the video card, in addition to 2 MPEG files, is high quality digital technology SimHD we talked about above.
I am satisfied with this player and I recommend you too warmly.
CAREFUL
Because software captures running DVD tutorial not see the picture, that it makes me a posture awkward (talk shop there), I hope not mocked me, have pity on a poor producer of tutorials!

        I saw. But I do not know how many Romanians buy original DVDs ... What annoys me these complex programs and famous is that it offers basic features such as subtitles. But whatever, this program is made by an American company ... and how are American movies most of us are probably felt no need to provide support for external subtitles.

      We have no way of knowing on whose hand you left the laptop, maybe someone made a prank on you and changed the path of your executables, folders, just to have these problems, I have not heard that there is even a virus to do the damage you're talking about. I think the solution for you remains to reinstall Windows…

    hello I have a problem with SimHD can not use video card, CPU only goes there to pocesing

  42. cool program, gorgeous picture, gorgeous sound. but it's something I don't like… or it doesn't have it, or I haven't discovered it! in subtitles I did not find the option to increase the character! don't have this option?

  43. In terms of hardware acceleration for video playback Media Player Classic - Home Cinema is option number 1. However on the page http://www.xvidvideo.ru/media-player-classic-home-cinema-x86-x64/ you really find the latest version with the latest improvements because it is published there first. Otherwise, ArcSoft TotalMedia Theater looks too capitalist and annoys me and will never have the functionality that Media Player Classic - Home Cinema has. MPC-HC I think is the best video player at the moment if we ignore that it has no video streaming.

    • Remus:
      Chapter hardware acceleration for video playback Media Player Classic - Home Cinema is option number 1. MPC-HC think it's the best video player today.

      filters FFDShow You do the same thing.

      Adds it as the MPC can put your own pixel-shader effects for. These clips can resize, sharpen, etc in Deno video card.
      MPC go EVR mode and includes DXVA decoder (video card).
      And I have an ASUS ATOM and can play easily with MPC 1080p ONLY (no other codecs, DXVA only).

      COSTA TMT on the other hand, and installs all sorts of unnecessary drivers and protections. To give me some stupid money on something that is weaker as a FREE solution.

      PS
      Thing SimHD that praise you, there's only one telling the pixel shader.
      In MPC you can use "SimHD" on any source, not only MPG2.

  44. How to insert subtitles?

  45. It is on the market and new theater arksoft 5 which is much better.

  46. Do not put subtitles on the screen bottom for me there this program remain to Kmplayer and XBMC.

  47. very good tutorial, but on the 2nd movie from your DVD it is not visible… it is the black screen…

  48. tika:
    I managed to install this player and go smoothly, but I have a little confusion .Imi you tell them how to increase the subtitle font because it sees very little and if you sit on the pc not see absolutely nimic.Va THANKS

    • tika:

      I struggled too, but believe me it's more than trivial. all you have to do is go with the mouse selector on the subtitle line, to show it framed, then play with the scroll. give up, increase it; give it down, it shrinks. Good luck!

  49. cristi said

    IT'S A LIE THOUGHT WITH THIS SOFT, THAT THE SUBTITLE CAN BE INCREASED.
