WMP will not play DVD because a compatible DVD decoder in not inst

I'm not able to play dvd with wmp11, Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD
because a compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer,however
worked previously. I since have rolled back to wmp 10. Still no luck. I am
able to play on laptop with wmp10. I am also able to play same disk with VLC
player.

==================================
The Free VLC Player may be your best bet...

Hello,

Try reinstalling your DVD player software. Popular ones include Intervideo
WinDVD and CyberDVD.
