Had this for a while now.

I used to be able to watch dvd's using mediaplayer but now I think a codec must not be working as I can watch dvds on anyother player on my pc (real, vlc, nero) but for some reason not media player.

any ideas??

and im sure its not my crossfired HD3870s and and ATI / AMD (for Frog who tends to blame that)

Just use winamp. That should work fine. Or whatever other mediaplayers you have that you say work fine anyway.

hmm useful as ever milkyboy

yes I can use other programs but I would like to know why mediaplayer no longer displays dvds or how i can fix it.

err, your codec upto date?

I seem to recall mine got updated within the last couple of months (could be wrong though)

Lead

Install a complete codec pack like this...

You may have a corrupt of outdated codec (which may have come with an app or game you installed).

Give that a go...

Thanks hubby I will give it a go.

thanks I sorted that now and it worked
