My computer is unabled to play dvd's. It just says that a decoder is missing. I need it for a class in wich we have to watch these vidios that goe with the chapters we have to read.

Sweet1 It works, but i can't figure out how to play and stop and all that. i can't seem to read the menus. These disks have more than 1 dvd on them, and jaws doesn't read them either.

Here is a link for "media Player classic". I taught this in one of my classes at the request of someone who wanted an accessible DVD player. Paste this link in to your browser.
