MS MCE problems

[Killajaz]

Im trying to get a mates HTPC work properly. MCE does not play DVDs as it claims the codecs are missing.
I went to the MS support site for MCE and yes they recommend some codecs but all of them come with a price.
That is pretty insulting. The whole reason for buying MCE is for integration and easy-to-use, and not having to fiddle about with drivers and paying more.

This is really ******* annoying and insulting from MS. ARRGRHG!#¤! ¤!#¤ !¤#!#Q#"2525

I will be using Welton Way for sure.

FULLY star your swearing.

Ive been looking all over for mpeg 2 codecs

I installed power DVD5.0 which came on the CD of the GFX card.
it works fine as a stand alone player but it does not solve the 'codec issue' in MCE. GAYness.

Any ideas?
