Sebbe Gehört zur PowerDVD automatischenen Erkennung!
xi-wan-fu Background Manager for Power DVD 6.0
overcloked Remote Control background application for CyberLink\'s PowerDVD version 5 and above. Enables you to use a remote control with your DVD drive if your drive came with one. Not required if you don\'t have a remote control, or don\'t wish to use one
Deb This program was included {with others from Cyber Link for my DVD} when I bought my new notebook ...and IMHO it APPEARS to be a harmless program for my DVD player/Recorder. Does anyone else have more info? Thank you.  See also: Link
maxmeisi File from PowerDVD which allows a user to plug in a remote control.

Mr. X For the powerDVD remote control, nothing to worry about.

spycatcher sometimes re-creates itself when deleted and does not always appear in registry OR.ini files - these are both very bad signs

Its double purpose. !.Remote Control Driver (harmless)
Ralf Lenkler Prevents my screensaver to start on my Winsows XP Pro system. Screensaver run fine as soon as PDVDServ.exe is eliminated as a startup item in MSCONFIG.
Dac Slows down system while it polls for remote control. Does nothing.
FritzB Computer bootet nicht mehr nach Entfernung von PDVDServ.exe aus Systemstart
PiedPier NOT "totally harmless"!! This file may block your screensaver from kicking in under XP pro. Good way to burn up your monitor if you are not careful. After much trial and error with disabling indivicual processes I found that PDVDServ.exe was responsible for preventing my (standard XP) screensaver from running. Videocard: Nvidia 7800 GTX
manolo Conflicts with Mircrosft Intellitpoint software and screensaver will not load
Scott PDVDServ.exe is a process belonging to PowerDVD which allows a user to plug in a remote control. This program is non-essential process to the running of the system, but should not be terminated unless suspected to be causing problems.
ScatsWhaHae Power DVD Remote Control service
kamot Cyberlink plug-in that allows a user to use a remote control. Caused my primary CD\DVD burner not to read disks. Disabled in MSCONFIG and all alright again
DeputyBill I also have problems with conflict with screensaver
MAD-Max It's hard to remove, despite of have been deleted from RUN key of registry, it starts again, I do not how
Jeff Graham Causes swing hesitation in Tiger Woods 07
Martin I'm using WinXP Pro SP2 and this files does not interfere with the screensaver or anything else.
Bill Prevents my screen saver from activating in Win XP Pro
delete it from the startup location within windows registry-prevents screensaver from working and disable some power management settings when used with microsoft intellipoint software.
GC This is a process belonging to PowerDVD. Be not scared this process is not dangerous, but can slow down the system (if any screensavers need to have more space you can terminate it)
Richard Hudon It is totally useless for computer mounted DVD players unless you have a remote controller for yours
Ron This program/file disabled my screen saver function. Once I deleted it from the start up my screen saver worked. Maybe it has something to do with the fact I am using a wireless mouse and keyboard?
p2p networking
If you do want to keep PDVDServ and also making your screensave works, disconnect your wireless keyboard and use weired keyboard instead.
Part of PowerDVD.. When i uninstalled PowerDVD it disappeard to.. So i would say its absolutely harmless

Curtis Not necessary, can be loaded when DVD reader/writer is loaded. Takes up about 4 K memory.
MBA Pretty harmless but associated with Logitech G15 Software and Teamspeak causes a 2 sec system hangup and increased processor use leading to lower gaming performance  See also: Link
Ben Wade Came preloaded with my new Acer computer. Therefore probably not dangerous if you know that it's the real one by that name
Billy Disable using msconfig to allow screensaver to function when using Microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse.
jim Causes Medal of Honor Airborne Demo to be extremely slow - unplayable.
Cookie Monster Power DVD. Harmless
Härpäke This one messes with some programs and games, don't expect to run games like Gears of War and DOSbox with this one.
