Hi All!
I need to have a good(i mean, free!)DVD Player installed on my Laptop.

Which one do you recommend? Any site from where I can download the same? I do use Limewire Pro...so if you could suggest the good ones, I shall be really thankful!

Best!

What do you mean you have lime wire?
If you want to download a pirated version dont do that.
Now for the DVD Player I prefer DVD X Player.
I am using it for a month. I like this much.

Does Windows Media Player support DVDs?

Hi All,

Thanks for the response! Do you have any idea whether Windows Media Player supports DVDs or not?

I heard that some codecs need to be installed for that. Any idea where can we download the same?

Thanks, to one and all...

It will play..
You need to try on the Windows official codec pack. It came with Digit DVD a month back...

I think WMP gives superb sound quality when it comes to DVD's, but you have to install codecs (for the sound) like K-lit codec pack which is easily available. But WMP can play only from the DVD not from DVD movie files(VOB) saved on hard disk.
If u are going to play it directly from the disc, then WMP is a good bet.
