All you need is the codec and media player will play the dvd.

K-lite full is the base codec package I use. http://www.free-codecs.com/download/...Codec_Pack.htm

Then because I hit a couple that K-lite could not handle, I also use the Coda codec

Did a full install of it instead of the default and have been good since then.
