DVD playback?
« on: September 02, 2004, 09:21:42 pm »

I haven't ever used MC to play a DVD, however I tried to play one tonight and it gave me a message that I didn't have a decoder installed.
Do I have to install some other decoder software before MC will play back dvds?  Or is there a dvd plug-in that I have to install before it will work?

My DVD-RW drive is a LiteOn LDW-451s.  It did come with some software (Cyberlink PowerDVD and Sonic MyDVD) but I haven't installed them since I moved this drive to the new pc I just built.  Do I have to install software like this for MC to play DVDs?

Thanks

I think you do. I have WinDVD installed on mine and it works.

I went ahead and installed PowerDVD and it works now.  So apparently you do have to have some type of software decoder installed.  

Thanks
