Freeware DVD Player

What is a good Freeware DVD Player? I just rented Team America and WMP won't let me play it due to copyright protection...

Wha...it won't let you play it due to copyright protection? Huh?

Do you have a DVD decoder installed?

No kidding, I got several copies of PowerDVD still in their OEM paper sleeves from all my DVD drive purchases. :laugh:

Yeah, that doesn't sound right.

You CAN play other DVDs, right?

If not (only thing I can think that makes sense), you probably just don't have a DVD decoder installed. Anandtech did testing and found that nVidia's DVD Decoder was pretty much the best out there - but it's only free for 30 days, then you need to buy it.

VLC ain't bad. Minimalist interface, but workable.
