Free DVD decoder

Anyone know of a free decoder I can download to watch dvds on wmp? I've been looking for about an hour now and haven't found a thing. I just want that codec and not hundred's of others.

You got to think of the basics that these media players were designed for. WMP is not the solution for dvd's. POWER DVD is great. Plus you can use VLC which plays anything.

I just use vlc, no need to go looking for codecs and its FREE.

Plays them perfectly for me, perhaps your not configured correctly.

I had VLC play DVDs really well, but it didn't do so hot for streaming video. Skin color came out looking blue...

Must be, DVDs play like crap on VLC for me.

EDIT:
Well I dunno, I just checked it again on a DVD I made earlier and it played just fine. Maybe its only some DVD's that have problems or I was just wrong.
