    Windows Media Player doesn"t Natively come with a Mpeg2 Codec so you have to have a Third Party Mpeg2 decoder installed ,But Media Player Sucks for Playing Mpeg2 files cuz it ignores the aspect Ratio Flags in the File so it will not be displayed Properly, You should Install a DVD Playing Software Like Power DVD or WinDVD and then you will be able to properly watch this File....Cheers
