Re: DVD software question
Well, videolan is a good basic player to start with, but for dvd's it wouldn't hurt to have something especially made for dvds, although videolan will probably play them.
A couple of years ago I might have recommended power-dvd but I don't really know today as I don't play dvds off my 'puter at this time.
And it probably wouldn't hurt you to grab some codecs as well for all manner of movie-files and suchlike, so have a look in the codec section as well.

CyberLink PowerDVD is the best ;)

It does play DVDs but doesn't support DTS sound, because of copyrights.
Still, VLC pwns everything! :01:
Re: DVD software question
I would recommend powerdvd xp 4.Its a little easier on the resources then the newer versions and I've never had a problem with it.Although since my philips dvp642 dvd player came along I haven't used power dvd much. :)
Re: DVD software question
Thanks guys, I'll investigate your suggestions.
:D
Re: DVD software question
Videolan seems to work the best (thanks SnnY :D), one more question I have now- When I insert a copied DVD, it plays fine. When I attempt to play an original disc, my system completly freezes up. Doesnt even let me open media player.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
