Version: Windows Essentials Media Codec Pack 2.2b
"Great player in a small package. Plays DVDs"
Pros: Easy to install and played DVD right away without additional configuration. Has Playlist function. Windows Essential player looks & works like the Windvd player, except it Free.
Cons: Could not play MP4 files and I could not find any MP4 Codecs on the net using the "Look for Codecs on the Net" button. I just converted the MP4s to another format with another tool
Summary: Great player in a small package and its Free!. Plays DVDs and most Audio and video files. I installed a DVDROM Player in Windows 2000 machine that only had a CDROM RW .This player rocks: I can now play DVDs! I highly recommend this little gem.
