Which
software player should I download ?
You
should follow this guide to choose the right one for you.
Generally, either Cinemaster (ATI or QI), PowerDVD or WinDVD
are the ones that works out for most people.
How
come none of you Geocities links work ?
Because of the way Geocities has configured their servers,
you can only download files off their server if the links
to the file was originally placed on a Geocities page. Also,
using IE 4/5 is better than using Netscape Communicator as
Communicator has several bugs that will prevent a proper download.
I
don't know how to install/fix this software player. Where
can I go for help?
There
is a tech-support site that offers more user/troubleshooting
guides and also a free personal tech-support email service
- http://www.digital-digest.com/dvd/support/.
