    I am having trouble playing DVDs on my m5500.

    First windows media player said that it could not play due to not having a proper dvd decoder, so i installed one and then only got audio to play.. not video.

    It worked in windows media player classic though...

    help would be appreciated.

    WMP 11 sucks for playing DVD's.

    Use VLC Media Player or Media Player Classic.
