Your DVD decoder and Windows Media Player have copy protection software that decodes the information on the DVD just before displaying it. If this software doesn't start correctly, you might receive this error. Remove the DVD from the DVD drive and then reinsert it. This will force the copy protection software to reset. While the DVD is out of the drive, make sure that your DVD is clean. If your DVD is scratched or dirty, the DVD drive may not be able to read it correctly, and you might receive this error. If this doesn't work, try the following: • If you have been able to play DVDs on your computer before, and you receive this error message, you might be able to solve the problem by restarting Windows Media Player or your computer. • If you receive this error message the first time you try to play a DVD, you might not have a DVD decoder installed, or your decoder software might need to be updated. In addition to your DVD-ROM drive and Player software, you must have either a software or hardware decoder to play DVDs. Hardware decoders and their drivers are available from third-party manufacturers. For more information about software decoder
Smartphones Fun Stuff Search site How to Fix Window Media Player "Cannot Play This DVD" Error Message Isn't it great how even in our modern computer copy protection error the read failed because the sector is encrypted age with Windows 7 and Windows 8, you can still receive an error like 0x80030309 copy protection error "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is problem with digital copy protection" when you're trying to watch digital copy protection removal a regular from Netflix on your computer? It's really a pain that something like that doesn't just "work" considering it's VERY COMMON for people to watch DVDs on their computers! Anyway, this happened https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/db646483-58df-43db-9507-c66ecb1575ca/windows-media-player-cannot-play-this-dvd-because-there-is-a-problem-with-digital-copy-protection?forum=w7itpromedia to me last night and it took me about 20 minutes to fix the problem, so I thought I would write up how I ended up fixing it! Hopefully, you read this before thinking it's some problem with Windows or with your DVD drive, etc as I have seen some people re-install Windows or get a new DVD drive because of this error! Actually, the problem http://www.online-tech-tips.com/computer-tips/how-to-fix-window-media-player-cannot-play-this-dvd-error-message/ all comes down to something called codecs. Codecs are small pieces of software that can decode the material on a DVD. Whenever a DVD is created, especially new one with copyright protection software installed on them, the content of the DVD is encoded using algorithms into a special format. This encoded data cannot be played on your computer in its normal format, so it has to be DECODED on your computer before it plays. You may have heard of DivX, which is a codec that allows people to compress full-length DVDs onto a CD without losing much of its original image quality. Some software DVD players will auto-download the required codecs for you and hence you won't have this problem, but for some reason Windows Media Players sucks at this and will pop up with the error message. If you have a Blu-ray drive and are trying to play a Blu-ray disc in Windows Media Player, the same thing applies. Windows Media Player, by default, cannot play Blu-ray discs like it can DVDs, so you have to install the correct codecs to get them to play in Windows Media Player. You can download all of

Please help! I recently installed a trial version of Nero 8 on my Windows XP http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f10/copy-protection-error-trying-to-play-dvd-in-windows-media-player-445024.html computer. Now, the bought dvd box sets I have will not play on my computer. I deleted Nero but it hasn't helped; Windows Media, DivX, all the players I have now tell me "Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try lowering your screen resolution and color quality settings" They have always worked fine copy protection before, so I do not believe the problem is with these settings. During Nero Installation, I did tick a box that I think was asking if I would be playing dvds from Europe or America, and I ticked Europe, when i think these discs are made/compatable with the America option. But I don't know how to undo it! Now all teh dvds I have paid for will not play, for no reason. Any help I would massively appreciate! Thank you xxx Reports: · Posted 8 years ago Top digital copy protection parker6 Posts: 26 This post has been reported. Ok, I have messed around with the american/europe settings and still nothing. Windows Media Player will play discs I have burned myself with no problems. It's just the ones I have bought in box sets that won't play, even though they worked before without problems. Please help! It's so bizarre. Reports: · Posted 8 years ago Top parker6 Posts: 26 This post has been reported. ok, last post I promise - apparently I am suddenly lacking an 'MPEG-2 decoder'. Is there anywhere anyone knows of that I can download a compatible one for free, or do I have to pay?! Any help appreciated! X Reports: · Posted 8 years ago Top jd2066 Posts: 3814 This post has been reported. Edit: Post about region code deleted. Now I see your post about the MPEG-2 Decoder. From the error message that is more likely then the region code. Edit 2: Were you able to play DVDs before you installed Nero 8? If so it's possible you have an MPEG-2 Decoder but the Nero 8 install accidentally messed up the decoder settings. Reports: · Posted 8 years ago Top parker6 Posts: 26 This post has been reported. I was fine to play them all before I downloaded Nero. I thought it was a decoder issue too, after recent developments, but now the message that comes up when I try to play the discs has changed to "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection b
