Today I picked up Great Hands.... from the local drum shop, and just found that my laptop won't play it. This is discouraging because I was planning on running it through the laptop to a large monitor and speakers at my kit so I can "play along" with my pads.
The dvd player and tv is upstairs in the living room. Not very practice friendly.
This laptop is an HP that's a couple years old running XP. It's trying to play it in Windows Media Player and is saying it doesn't have a compatible dvd decoder. Web help gets me to this page, http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/downloads/windows-media-player/plug-ins but this is a company computer and so I'm limited on what I can do to it, or wish to spend on it.
Anybody know of any work arounds, free software, or any other ideas on how I can get this thing playing on my laptop?
thanks
