[mythtv-users] Play Myth recordings on a Windows box

[Ryan Freng]

A good place to start would be to install the divx codecs.

If you don't want all the overhead of Windows Media Player you should
check out VLC:

There is also a good codec pack that will play just about any video
file, get it here:
