PowerDVD is Best.....But WMP should play them as well. Even Winamp Pro will now.

TheaterTek (http://theatertek.com/) is hard to beat for image quality. It's lesser-known than PowerDVD and WinDVD. But having directly compared it to both those players, TT is noticeably superior. When it comes to navigational controls, it's a bit "clunkier", but has features and manual controls none of the popular players seem to currently feature.

I am now using power dvd but sometimes it will shut down half way through a movie

Media player classic suggested before is a very good free option. Windows media player is fine too but i find it loads a bit slower.

You will need a free mpeg2 decoder if you don't have one installed on your system. I'm not sure if those who have a software DVD player like Cyberlink's Powerdvd or Intervideo's Windvd need these codecs to play dvd with MPC or WMP but for anyone else who reads this later these links may be helpful.
