DVD Decoders
Why is a DVD Decoder needed? Well DVD Decoders decode video from DVD discs.
This is not the same as DVD ripping, which is actually transferring the DVD
Video to your hard disk. Windows XP does not have DVD disc playback by default,thus the need for a plugin decoder. We have looked at the few that are available and listed our top picks.
