Open Source DVD player for Windows?

[Guest ToddAndMargo]

Hi All,

 

I am using Mplayer for DVD videos. It does not work

so well. Xine over on Linux works great, but no Windows

version.

 

Is there an Open Source DVD player out there for

Windows? Maybe, similar to Xine?

 

Many thanks,

-T

Google, the new RTFM.

 

I value others technical opinions. I was looking for "In

my experience ..."

Vlc has some form of DVD Playback. It's legal status is iffy, obviously.

Sure...

 

But how do you get Google to play a DVD?

AVS Player. http://www.avsmedia.com/DVDPlayer/download.aspx

Seems to work pretty good. But I use VLC a good bit too. VLC plays so

many other formats it almost wipes out WMP. VLC also plays the VOB

files on a DVD individually.
