Op de site van Cyberlink vond Rommel een nieuwe versie van de DVD- en SVCD-player PowerDVD. In versie 5 zijn een drietal nieuwe features ingebouwd die betrekking hebben op video en geluid. Helaas is op dit moment alleen de trialversie beschikbaar en deze is gelimiteerd tot een half uur video met vijf minuten geluid. Het changelog geeft de volgende veranderingen aan:

- CyberLink Eagle Vision
- Brand new technology in version 5, which adapts video contrasts and colors across movie scenes to deliver superb and rich details. CLEV is designed to alleviate the problem where some movie scenes are too dark or bright by adjusting the color and contrast to bring you the best image possible. It is also ideal for correcting detail loss inherent in LCD monitors.
- CyberLink Pano Vision
- New non-linear stretching technique to offer the best display aspect ratio for 4:3 and widescreen movies. To reduce distortion when display 4:3 movies on widescreen display devices (or widescreen films on 4:3 displays), CLPV� is designed to minimize visual distortion in the central display areas to give your movie a more natural look. With CLPV you can view any movie you want in the correct aspect ratio for your display device, even if the original movie doesn't support it.
- CyberLink Multi-channel Environment Impression - CLMEI
- A proprietary audio technology developed by CyberLink, designed to deliver multi-channel audio from any two-channel encoded audio track. This means, if you have a multi-channel speaker system, you can now playback MP3 audio files or audio CD tracks in multi-channel virtual surround sound environment.
