Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: NONE
Our base is upgrading to VISTA and now customers are telling me our DVDs we
produce will not play on their systems. Sure enough I tried one of our disk
we produced and it would not play. This is the message I got.
"Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because a compatible DVD decoder is
not installed on your computer."
Followed the link to Microsoft's web site and found this message:
"DVD Playback Options for Windows
If you are running the Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista Business,
Windows Vista Enterprise, or Windows XP operating system on your computer, you
might need to install a compatible DVD decoder (also known as a MPEG-2
decoder) before continuing with the following activities.
Playing a DVD
Playing a recorded TV show
Playing video files that were encoded with the MPEG-2 codec (.mpeg, .mpg, and
some .avi files)
To purchase a compatible DVD decoder, visit Plug-ins for Windows Media
Player."
So is the MPEG decoder not included in the Army's Gold master or is our NEC
folks missing something.
Thanks
