Windows Media Player
Windows Media Player becomes a full-featured DVD player when combined with a DVD decoder (MPEG-2 decoder, Free MPEG-2 Video Stream Decoder) with features such as full-screen video playback controls, DVD chapter listings, and integrated cover art.

If you are running Windows XP, you can enhance your DVD playback experience by purchasing a DVD decoder pack. To find out if you already have a DVD decoder installed on your Windows XP based computer and whether it is compatible with Windows Media Player, install and run the Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility.

Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility - The Windows XP Video Decoder Checkup Utility helps you determine if an MPEG-2 video decoder (also called a DVD decoder) is installed on your Windows XP computer and whether or not the decoder is compatible with Windows Media Player 10 and Windows XP Media Center Edition.

About Codec

A codec is software that is used to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or video. Windows Media Player and other programs use codecs to play and create digital media files.

For example, when you rip a song from an audio CD to your computer, the Player uses the Windows Media Audio codec to compress the song into a compact WMA file. When you play that WMA file (or any WMA file that might be streamed from a website), the Player uses the Windows Media Audio codec to decompress the file so the music can be played through your speakers.

About Encoders & Decoders

A codec can consist of two components: An encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression (encoding) function and the decoder performs the decompression (decoding) function.

Some codecs include both of these components and some codecs only include one of them.

About DVD Decoder

A DVD decoder is another name for an MPEG-2 decoder. The content on DVD-Video discs is encoded in the MPEG-2 format, as is the content in DVR-MS files (Microsoft Recorded TV Shows) and some AVI files. To play these items in the Player, you need a compatible DVD decoder installed on your computer.

If your computer has a DVD drive, it probably already has a DVD decoder installed on it. However, if you encounter an error message that indicates that you are missing a compatible DVD decoder, click the Web Help button on the error message dialog box to determine how to obtain one.

Why do I get a message that says my computer is missing a codec?

If you get a message that says that your computer is missing a codec, you are probably trying to play, burn, or sync a file that was compressed by using a codec that Windows or the Player doesn't include by default. In many cases, you can download and install the missing codec by clicking the Web Help button in the error message dialog box. Click here to download Codecs.
