DVD software

[Wilier]

Anyone know of any FREE software that will play DVDs on me PC. I obviously have a DVD player on there, and used to have a program that would let me run films, but I lost it.

I got a copy of WinDVD, but it only allows 5mins before stopping

Sorry NO...

Windows 2000 and Xp got built in ones, but they need a decoder, hardware or software!

DVD software can be had fo 20 quid though! I got WinDVD free with my nu graphics card

Hey, I never checked the software that came with me new card, I'll check that later.

And 20 quids a lot of money to a father of 1 and a half.

Short of going the *gasp* warez route (which I obviously don't condone in any way at all ), you're kinda stuck.

There is this:
http://www.videolan.org/

but it's still in the beta stages, and is cross-platform with linux, so it looks like ass. But it might work ok for you, didn't seem too bad here...

Heheh, sorry about the 20 quid!

LOL, np, 20 quid, schmid. If I must then I will but some. My daughter wants to watch Shrek and she was having a bit of a paddy when I came to work, cos it jus gets going and then stops.

I got a gf2 last Tues, so I'll check the disk when I get home.


Thanks guys.

Should be on there somewhere, although if not it looks like you'll have to go down the warez route
