Nimo Codecs Pack

[ibidia]

Hi. I would like to be able to watch my DVDs on my computer. I have WMP 10.0 and Real Player. I had also DivX Player 5.2.1 and Cliprex DS DVD Player but I removed them because I thaught I maybe had to many players that anyone of them was working. I wonder if downloading Nimo Codecs Pack v.5.0 will help me play my DVDs in WMP or do I have to download some other program.

Please help.

Thanks

STAY AWAY from codec packs. they usually cause more harm than good if you don't know what your'e doing.

to play dvd's, download a software dvd player, such as "windvd" or "powerdvd". In my opinion, powerdvd is much better.

once installed, you can play your dvd's in wmp or almost any other player.

So there are no cheaper alternatives?

[anonymez]

for a free solution, download and install "ffdshow"

[ibidia]

WHich one? Alpha or beta?

Hi again. Tried one of my DVD´s and it worked. Then I tried another one. Now the sound i s the problem. It sounds like you listen on the radio but cannot find the right frekvens. Any suggestion?

[anonymez]

try downloading & installing "ac3filter"

[ibidia]

What´s that?

[anonymez]

its an ac3 codec.... it allows you to playback ac3 sound, which is used in most dvd's
