Not sure if this is video card related or not. I'm using the DVD decoder
supplied by ATI with the video card. I downloaded the latest DVD decoder
from the ATI website, and am using Catalyst 4.4 drivers. No matter what DVD
I try, none of them will play using Windows Media Player 10. I have Windows
XP Home (Service Pack 2) and all the critical updates.

I get an error message that says: "Windows Media Player has encountered a
problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience." when I try
to play DVDs using WMP 10, and when the OK button is clicked WMP closes
down.

I can play DVDs using the ATI DVD Player version 7.8, so that is an
alternative.

I can't find anything in the MS knowledge base about this problem. Other
than this problem, Windows XP and the ATI 9500 Pro have been working fine
for a couple of years now.

Any ideas?
