Used codec

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hello,

I would like to find out what codec WMP11 is using. I have more than one DVD decoder installed (Nero/Cyberlink etc . ..) but how to tell WMP11 which one it should use? I'm running Windows Vista (Business). On XP there was a tool Windows XP Video Decoder utility, however I'm not sure if it works for Vista. I tried installing it and it seems to run, but when I change the default decoder setting WMP doesn't seem to change.
Also the command dvdupgrd /detect doesn't seem to work on Vista.

All help appreciated,
Regards,
Perry
