Some people may encounter the problem that indicates Windows Media Player won't play DVD. This is because Windows has dropped its support to provide Windows Media Player's built-in DVD codec. To a large extent, Microsoft sees that the market is decreasing needs for a DVD drive, not to mention DVD playback service. They take it for granted that not many users may spend extra money for DVD playback since users could easily watch movies from the internet. You can try Leawo Blu-ray Player to play DVD.

The word Codec stands for either Coder-Decoder or Compressor-Decompressor, depending on who you ask. There are audio, text, and video codecs. They're used to coordinate the audio track, any text for subtitles, and the video tracks in videoconferencing and streaming media. Some downloaded video clips will require a specific codec before you can play the content
