I had a codec problem last year and I fixed it by using the k-lite codec pack. I only found it by accident but it should do the trick. If you can't find it I still have a copy I can and try and send to you.

 

I personally use VLC player to play things. I havent found any format it wont play including 3gp,mp4's etc.

 

You can use Nero (Showtime), VLC, PowerDVD,WinDVD etc to watch dvd's on your PC

 

Also, to add to that list : Media Player Classic + Zoomplayer - Zoomplayer won't play DVD's unless you "purchase" the full version
