We have a Lord of The Rings DVD and would like to play it on the compaq laptop with winxp pro sp2 mobile Athlon 1800. But Windows media player can't do it. I have tried downloading lots of other media players, like VLC - which only play the audio and not video.

I downloaded a codec pack but now WMP says there is a copyright issue.

Are there any *working* freeware dvd players out there?

Thanks

WMP isnt that great for anything, without some kind of codec.

Have you got powerdvd?

Does VLC have a separate codec pack?

Pass, I dont use VLC. I use Powerdvd 6 and DVD x player, but this isnt free.
