Playing DVDs on WinNT

VILLA21 · Feb 13, 2004

Any chance to play-watch DVDs in WinNT4.0 SP6a?? The latest DirectX for WinNT is DX6 and cannot upgrade even to 8.1

Have you tried installing WinDVD ? What players have you tried installing ?

I believe that you can get reasonable playback only thru hardware that is supported in NT (say a Hollywood plus video card), and not thru software solutions.
NT is server-oriented OS, and nobody really uses a server to watch DVD's...

tomorrow will take a look at when i don't forget it;
and the best is it doesn't need Admin privileges for installing;
