Direct Show

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

DirectShow is part of DirectX...however it alone will not allow you to play
a DVD...for that you need DVD decoders...

www.microsoft.com/directX

Cheapest way is just the decoders from
http://www.intervideo.com/products [...] a_pack.jsp
and then play the DVD in WindowsMediaPlayer
