Video, no audio playing DVD

I have a 8400. I get video but no adio. I get a message about not having a plug-in. I removed Nero and cyberlink but doesn't Dell include this plug-in or doesn't windows media come with it. I tried playing using windows player and real.

Thanks.

    Hi, patm:

     

    You can try VLC Media Player (link below). That should work.

    downloaded VLC Media Player and still no audio. Is there a certain way to configure it. If I install Nero will it provide the plug-in?  Thanks

    Nero has a DVD decoder called Showtime, which should have the proper audio codec. But VLC Media Player also has this, so I'm surprised you're still having trouble. Are you having trouble with more than one DVD?

    Finally figured out how to use the VLC media player. It works fine.

     

    Thanks, PatM
