I've updated Win XP to SP1. I've installed tsunami and nimo
codec packs. Now when I try to play a DVD disk in Windows Media Player8, I get a clean looking message "Windows Media Player is currently unable to play DVD video" and "Details" show
"Error ID = 0xC00D116A, Remedy ID = 0x00000000"
When I uninstalled both tsunami and nimo packs, the DVD started playing in WMP8 again! If I install just tsunami, then DVD plays in WMP8. I tried installing either nimo5.7 or nimo5.8 with a full set of codecs and in both cases
WMP8 refused playing a DVD. Uninstalling them fixes the problem!
So, it seems like WMP8 detects some nimo codec and refuses to play DVDs!
Does anybody have any clue about what is going on here? Is this a new Microsoft Trojan designed to prevent users from unlocking DVDs with WMP and then ripping them? Also, InterVideo WinDVD was very flaky with Nimo installed while
DirectDVD 4.0 worked just fine.
