Review BDInfo
Have you lost information from any of your Blu-Ray discs, or for some reason, you can't access them? Then you should know that an application like BDInfo will allow you to access these contents quickly. With this program, you can avoid all the problems that prevent you from playing or managing the files recorded on a Blu-Ray, so you can do whatever you want with them.
If you usually work with these high-density data discs, you should know that a platform like this can be handy in more than one case, especially when their contents are blocked. Thanks to it, you will get complete reports about every technical detail about what is recorded on your Blu-Ray.
Not only that, but you will also be able to visualize other additional information, such as the language in which the subtitles of the video are, if there are any, as well as graphics, the complete playlist if there is more than one file or the sampling frequency of the contents. Undoubtedly, the enormous amount of data this application can collect makes it a highly recommended application nowadays.
Its information is divided into two parts since, on the one hand, we will be able to visualize the details of the optical or Blu-Ray drive, such as the total space it has, the free and occupied space, or the number of files. In a second instance, you will also be able to visualize the codecs necessary to watch the video and listen to the audio and other important information about the disc's content.
If you have more than one disc inserted in your computer, BDInfo will always allow you to select which is the one to analyze in terms of its content, jumping to it in just seconds, no matter how many times you decide to go from one to another. In fact, in case you didn't know, its name refers to "Blu-ray Disc Information, "a way to summarize the main tasks this software carries out easily.
You are probably also asking yourself what we need for the reports this program can offer us about a Blu-Ray. Well, this will depend on each user, but in general, we can tell you that this kind of application allows us to know which codecs we need to be able to view the contents or how big the files are to see if we can add others that we are interested in.
Then, you will see that there are different ways to use this program since you can select the Quick report option or Full report , according to the available time and the amount of information you are looking for. The Quick Report takes just a few seconds and can be displayed almost automatically once we have opened the main interface of this program on our computer.
In the Utilities tab, you are going to have access to many of the main functions that are part of this application, in addition to running a full Report if you wish, which differs from the quick one thanks to the fact that a full scan of the Blu-Ray source in question is performed. For example, if you want exact information about the bitrate of each chapter on the Blu-Ray, you need to know that the Full Report only provides such data.
In short, what kind of data can I know thanks to BDInfo? Almost all data is related to your discs, but first of all, we have to discuss general information, such as the title, size, protection, etc. Then we pass to the contents, about which you will be able to know in just seconds, the playlist of the same, the chapters with which it counts, the total bitrate for each one of the chapters, etc.
As far as the user interface of this program is concerned, it is more straightforward than colorful since you can hardly see any distinctive elements. It is practically all dominated by light colors and grays. In any case, we value that the application is easy to use, even when you can be considered a novice user in everything that concerns using these systems.
In our tests, BDInfo has shown us a good part of the information it promises without too many delays, much less when we talk about the Quick Report , and its overall speed is undoubtedly a positive factor. Otherwise, we haven't experienced any momentary stalls, forced program shutdowns, or frozen screens, so there are no significant points against it to consider.
In summary, if you are looking for a program that allows you to access any content on your Blu-Ray discs, in addition to knowing the detailed information of these discs, this is undoubtedly one of the best alternatives offered on the market today. Its operation, with a complete and faster mode, is perfect for any use we want to give it, so you should already be trying it on your computer.
