Ultimate Edition definitely does. I'll try and find out if Home Premium does too (I'm pretty doubful the other SKUs do). -- Paul Smith, Yeovil, UK.

| | Re: does windows vista include a free dvd decoder? Google is your friend. With this search: "dvd decoder" vista home premium site:microsoft.com I got the following link as the first result: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...dvdcodecs.aspx Unfortunately, I don't know what you're looking for when you ask for the name of the decoder. I went to my Vista Ultimate Media Player 11 program (no special stuff bought), and buried under the Help | About area was the following (maybe the stuff near the bottom under MPEG/DVD Filters is what you're looking for?): "Media Player Binaries Name Version Name Version Name Version wmp.dll 11.0.6000.6324 wmlaunch.exe 11.0.6000.6324 wmpshell.dll 11.0.6000.6324 wmplayer.exe 11.0.6000.6324
