Where do i get a dvd decoder?

Where can I get a free windows xp compatible dvd decoder for media player?

• I'm either looking for a decoder for windows media player or a free similar dvd player.

• Answer:

  I would sugest you get the k lite codec pack because it comes with a dvd decoder (it allows you to play movies through windows media player) and more. I prefer the media player clasic that comes with the pack because it is faster, and supports more file formats including real and quicktime. A codec pack has codecs for many types for video and audio with this pack there probably wont be a video or movie you can't play because it has it all, and the best part is its free http://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Mega_Codec_Pack.htm
