decoders?

[slothmeister]

OK, so probably a really simple question but having just installed MCE and trying to play a DVD it tells me that i don't have a dvd decoder installed, where abouts would one go to get one of these?

Is there specific ones for different drive makes?

cheers

this works

http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Dscaler_MPEG_Filters.htm

also, download "ffdshow" and "ac3 filter" from that site, and possibly this "core vorbis" http://www.free-codecs.com/download/CoreVorbis.htm if you have any .ogg files


then your mce should play basically anything (besides real + quicktime) -real alternative and quicktime alternative should take care of that! (also on that site)


they're all 100% freeware
