Because the trial version does not support UHD BluRay playback, use advisor to check your PC's compatibility first.

Just remind you that GREAT and Sooooooooooooo powerful NVIDIA, AMD GPU or AMD CPU doesn't support UHD BluRay playback.
Save your time to complain about that.

It doesn't make any sence to exclude these functions. I own Powerdvd 15 and the only reason to upgrade is to get the support of 4k HDR. If I cannot test it, how can I know if my PC is capable to playback the new video format flawlessly??
