Basic DVD movie playing software for Win98se (the free kind )
GadgetGeek:
I'm a fan of VLC.
Not sure if it supports W98Se or not...I can't get to the specs right now.
ChadTower:
Do you use it? I was seriously thinking of building a box for that but went with XBMC instead. I would like to stream to other rooms now, too, but have more spare PC hardware than Xbox.
pointdablame:
VLC is an excellent player. I use it all the time. I also use Media Player Classic for some filetypes and situations.
ChadTower:
I can't find the necessary specs fro VLC, dammit.

I use VLC as my only media player on most of my machines. I don't do anything too fancy, but I'm happy with it. I was able to get to the site again, but still can't find the specs. There is also a "portable" version where you can run it from your thumbdrive which is useful for watching at work (during lunch of course) where they uninstalled any video codecs.
I'm hoping to also add XBMC to the mix, but I first have to acquire an x-box. And that will be a tough one to get spousal approval for (and too big an item to try to sneak into the mix).
