Re: DVD Viewer

I use Media Player from Microsoft as mentioned. It works fine and you can change color, hue, brightness and settings when watching. Some times though, it will have a hard time finding the right "Codec" which is what is needed for the software to decipher the code or compression. <br /><br />www.download.com is a good place to look for freeware/shareware programs that play DVD's.

Re: DVD Viewer

thats not the problem when you install a DVD drive it comes with a piece of software that will allow DVD playback.<br /><br />ANY OTHER program can use this software to play back the DVD <br /><br />but not unless someones DVD software is installed a non lisened program like media player cant play back a DVD<br /><br />every DVD player pays a small royality to the DVD people<br /><br /><br />tommays
