Where can I download a DVD decoder for free that is compatible with the windows media player for windows xp?

Caitlyn

I need this plug-in to play my DVDs in my computer but I haven't got any money to buy the ones I've found so far.

Answer
Hi, your best bet is to get vlc media player which is very good with dvd's and even let you adjust the brightness. Vlc plays nearly any audio or video files there is. Your second alternative is to download a codec pack, combined community codec pack is a good one. If you need futher help add some additional details and I will try to help you further.

I trust combined community codec pack below more than k-lite. With "cccp" you can make windows media player play dvd's and be default for files or media player classic home cinema which comes with included. It is very easy to install and setup.

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (Official site of vlc media player by videolan. Not the prettiest interface with that big orange cone but this player does wonders for video and audio files. You can even adjust the brightness on dvd's with vlc.)

http://cccp-project.net/ (Official site of combined community codec pack. DO NOT ENABLE or checkmark haali media splitter support for avi files during setup, if you do haali will crash windows movie maker everytime for avi files.) This is a very good pack. It will play dvd's right after installing or you can set up ffdshow to play dvd's through mpeg2 libavcodec and and adjust dvd brightness through ffdshow video config.)

I hope this helps you out. If you need further help add additional details and I will do my best to help you further.

Use the VLC player. It will play almost everything, without the need for codecs or decoders, and this includes DVDs. Plus it's a better media player than Windows Media Player.

Where can I get a free windows xp compatible dvd decoder for media player?

J.D.

I'm either looking for a decoder for windows media player or a free similar dvd player.

Answer
I would sugest you get the k lite codec pack because it comes with a dvd decoder (it allows you to play movies through windows media player) and more. I prefer the media player clasic that comes with the pack because it is faster, and supports more file formats including real and quicktime.
A codec pack has codecs for many types for video and audio with this pack there probably wont be a video or movie you can't play because it has it all, and the best part is its free

i need a DVD decoder/player program or software for my pc ( for windows xp)?

i wanna be able to play dvds on my pc, i can only play video clips , you know (Real player, Quick Time..etc) but no dvd player.. where can i find free download for that?

Answer
Real player and Quick Time are only for viewing web content.

You need a special program to be able to view DVD Videos in Windows Media Player like PowerDVD or WinDVD. They don't cost that much. There is one free one that I could find, but I don't know if it's a standalone prog or runs through WMP. However, I've heard some very good things about it. Check it out here:

How can I make a backup of my DVD movies?

best dvd player windows xp free image

whinne

I have a new PC tower with a 16X Double Layer DVD burner. Windows XP Pro. Want to make burnt DVD's of my movies for a backup, that will play in any regular TV DVD player. Thanks!

Answer
I'd probably go to download.com and get a free DVD ripper. Although most ones will have limitations, it's not that bad but unless you want to pay, you don't have many other choices. By the way, is this to make backups, or "backups" ;-)
