hi all,
im using windows xp and use windows media player 11. A while back i could
play basically all video formats, but now for some reason it will not let me
play .mpg and .mpeg's. I can still play .wmv, .avi, .asf and so on. When i
try to play an .mpg i get an error msg and the help link given is no help.

Reinstall your DVD decoding software. It's usually PowerDVD or WinDVD
whichever came with your PC.
