DVD support in Windows Media Player has always relied on a third parties DVD
decoder to decode the MPEG-2 video that is on every DVD. If you are having
problems playing DVD's the first thing you should try is to reinstall your
DVD decoder on-top of itself.
If you are not sure who's decoder you are using goto Start>>Run>>Type
"DVDUPGRD /Detect". This should list the DVD decoder installed. You will
want to reinstall the decoder from your original media or download a copy
from the manufacturer of the decoder.
If you don't have a decoder installed at all please see
http://tinyurl.com/2njf6 for more information on obtaining a supported one.
If reinstalling the decoder doesn't help then the next step is to reinstall
your video card drivers. Get the latest drivers from the manufacturer of
your video card and reinstall them.
Windows Media Player will get confused if you have more than one DVD/MPEG-2
decoder installed at the same time. It's a good idea to avoid this.
If you run into any more problems it is generally a better idea to ask the
maker of that decoder then ask your peer's in a newsgroup.
