Downloaded fine, installed quickly and with no errors....still the same old message, still can't watch the DVD I brought home from mom's and still bored out of my mind.

Oh, and one more thing, I can't seem to get it deleted off my computer. Uninstalled, or at least that's what it says but ummm...yeah, the file will not go in the recycling bin and the Shift+Delete trick didn't work either. So...yeah, take my advice, if you have XP, don't download it, it most likely won't work and then it's a pain to remove.

End of rant.

Just like "Disappointed" ... easy download, easy install, not much room for errors, there is only 2 buttons "Install" and "Remove" .... But the thing doesn't work : no way to read a dvd I still get the message saying "a compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer" ... It just deosn't work. GOD why is it such a nightmare to simply wanna read a DVD on a PC ?????

It just doesn't work with WMP9 and Windows 98SE. After install you should be able to see in WMP9 tools>Options>File Types a check box for 'DVD Video' but there was none. Trying to open a VOB file with WMP9 doesn't work either. Luckily I used an uninstaller program with Stinkey's Codec so I could get rid of it completely.

So far the best option I have found for a free DVD player is Media Player Classic. You may find that you need XP and a processor of at least 1 Ghz for it to work though.

If anyone knows of another option for a free DVD player that works with Windows 98SE I would like to read about it.

Very low video and audio quality. Quick install, and thank God - quick uninstall ;)

Didn't work using WMP 10 on my XP Tablet PC. Uninstalls easily,though. Up next: PowerDVD 6.

The codec is too small and obviously doesn't work.I installed it and removed it.Windows Media Player didn't open mpeg 2 files just as before the installation.

Would not work with Media Player 10. MP10 told me there was an error with the Codec and to change my screen resolution to get it to work. Sorry, but the Codec a piece of crap

It looks like total nuts. Terrible color, and during any moderate amount of motion, you can hardly even tell what's going on.
