Hi everybody

Does anyone know a fix for WMP11, so its able to play dvds. I'm not interested in using MPC, Powerdvd, Cyberlink or similar, just a dvd decoder for WMP11.

Regards,

You're using winows xp, right?

Windows xp don't include a mpeg2 decoder (and ac3/dts audio decoders) so you have to install software with such decoders.

You can install ffdshow.
