I'm having difficulty playing some DVDs with Windows Media Player. Actually, I've basically never been able to play DVDs with WMP ever. I can't seem to get a picture at all, and basiclly all I get is the audio. I'm not too sure why it's doing this, while it works fine playing torrented anime on the hard drive. I generally use Core Media Player, but since I have the free version, it wouldn't do DVD play back unless I get the premium version after offering some $$$.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Probably because WMP isn't a dvd player.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

For DVD playback you can use the VideoLAN client. Or xine/mplayer if you're using a unix os.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I recommend downloading and installing the Combined Community Codec Pack, and using Media Player Classic to play DVDs.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Interesting, considering WMP just says you can play your DVDs with this application.

They lied to me ;__;

I was speaking idiomatically.

Technically, yes Microsoft lies. But it does state that it "can play DVDs with a 3rd party applicaiton" or something to that effect.

Download Media Player Classic. It's what I use and love.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
