I have power dvd pro on computer but is having problems. Was wondering if
there are any free players that will play dvd movies. Thanks.

And, of course Windows Media Player will play dvd's if you have a codec for
playing dvd's(which you have, if you have Power DVD installed, otherwise
download and install K-Lite Codec Pack: http://www.codecguide.com/, which
contains 2).

DVD support is only available in Zoom Player Professional ($27.95 - $35.95)

Zoom Player comes in multiple flavors:
Zoom Player Standard, a flexible feature rich Media Player that for all
its features and goodness remains bloat-free, Zoom Player Professional,
which on top of being a great Media Player with additional
power-features, incorporates the most powerful DVD Front-End you could
imagine (and even a few features you didn't think of imagining) and
Zoom Player WMV Professional, adding Windows Media DRM playback
support.

Zoom Player Standard remains Free for Non-Commercial use

Larry asked about a freeware program that could play DVD movies.
And you can't play a DVD movie on Zoom Player 4.51 Standard,
I have just tried that.

Hi CoMa tried VLC media player
Looked good but had sound probs in parts
I thought it was the DVD (a copy)

So I tried my usual Roxia player, no probs

Should I have loaded some codecs for VLC?

It's you-know-who

Latest version is 0.8.5

Try to change the "Default" Audio output module in VLC
to "Win32 waveout extension output" module
Settings-> Preferences-> Audio-> Output modules-> Advanced options


If you want you can try out the latest nightly build version

Thanks CoMa tried you suggestion, it is slightly better but not much
I have to turn the volume up so far that the background noise is
muffling out the speech

I have noticed when I play a DVD on VLC that the sound is
louder if the sound is set as 5.1 (Audio-> Audio Device-> 5.1)

Have you tried to change the sound level in
Settings-> Preferences-> General Audio Settings-> Default audio volume

And maybe also change
Advanced option -> Audio output volume step
