Free DVD Decoder

[HJB]

When I had WinME installed I was able to watch DVD movies on my system. I
remember downloading a program/plug-in for free that allowed me to do so.
Now that I've upgraded (clean install) to XP Home, I am having the same
problem of no decoder being found.

Where can I find a free DVD Decoder for my new XP OS?

Your DVD player should have come with such a software player, also many
graphics cards include them.

however forgot to book mark the page , however i just googled it

Ah, codec, well that's different. Guess I should have read decoder and
codec and not player.

lol , it was i that misspoke . the description is dvd decoderpack for
win xp - cyberlink based . it was posted by one of you so-called xp guru's
(no flame intended) . actually not sure what it is , 383 kbs seems awefully
small for a player .

anyway , have a nice day ;-)

That's what most call "pirating"

 

[Woody]

oh really ? well shiver me timbers and hardy har har . the link to that was
posted on the general ng in the last week by i'm pretty sure someone with
"MVP" after their name .

and btw no self respecting pirate would d/l that when they can just d/l the
latest version of anything they want !

have a nice day ;-)
