If you are running XP, update to the latest video driver and install/reinstall Windows Media Player 11 since it has DVD Decoders built in - otherwise install something like powerDVD to get the decoder.
I got a DVD from Netflix today and am trying to play it on my laptop. I should say was trying to play since my battery is nearly dead now from dealing with this. The disc asks to install Interactual Player to play the DVD. I already have a DVD player, don't know their software and just want to play the DVD. The problem is WMP or WinAMP aren't recognizing it. DVDShrink won't recognize it as I tried that as a backup.
I just want to play the disc and be done with it. How can I do this without installing Interactual garbage?
On a side note, I think I've come up with a new term and in MHO, the Interactual Player applies. It's assware. I define it as software that provides little benefit and is forced upon the end user with little or no explanation of the full consequences of installing the product.
Anyways, that's my rant for the day. Can anyone help?

I just recently purchased the HP All In One 24 g020 and after opening and setting up I tried to play a movie. It prompted me to download InterActual Player which I thought was strange since it was a BRAND NEW PC and my other Dell and HP laptops and Desktops that I have had in the past have just played the movie through Windows Media Player without any issue. So I downloaded InterActual and I got the Error PL4013 message shortly after the application started reading the disc. Internet explorer 11 updates for windows 7. I have gone through the steps of uninstalling Interactual and reinstalling InterActual, diagnosing the driver, uninstalling and reinstalling the driver and restarting the computer with no success. I have also tried some of the apps offered in the Windows App Store which also didn't work. I don't understand why Windows Media Player can't do it. This seems like more of a hassle than it should be.
I would think that a BRAND NEW all in one PC would be able to do anything I wanted it to do.
Interactual Player Error Pl4013
Please help with any other tips.
