Try VLC media player, it is a freeware download and plays just about everything.

just click download.

VLC media player, is good I am very happy with it

Get slysoft any dvd. That should do the trick.

What you are missing are the codecs to decrypt the format. Here is a link to a collection of free codecs http://www.free-codecs.com/download/k_lite_mega_codec_pack.htm

You don't need to download all these 3rd party players these people have suggested above me.

thanks guys huge help

I was reading his post and I'm like, "encoding"? This guy needs VLC


So you beat me to it +rep

he may not need a 3rd party player but VLC seems to be the most forgiving and widely accepted player.
