DVD Decoders

Dvd Decoders
I have a Sony DDU161 DVD/CDROM with which I have had no problems until now...not that it is a problem but XP Media Player requests that I install/purchase a DVD Decoder.

I have just replayed 2 DVD's no problem but this new one I have just purchased will not play and comes up with the issue of DVD Decoder required.

Quite frankly I get a bit cheesed off that XP and Media Player requires that I throw extra money their way for this.

Is their any way around this please without having to hand out EXTRA bucks.

Thanks a million

Also you can go to this link and on the right side toward the bottom there are some tips for Windows Media Player and DVD viewing with decoder links.
