WinDVD (owned by Corel Corporation which bought InterVideo in 2006[3]) is a commercial video player and music player software for Microsoft Windows. It enables the viewing of DVD-Video movies on the user's PC. DVD-Video backups stored on hard disk (created using software such as DVD Decrypter) can also be played. The player also can be used to play video and audio files in other formats encoded with different codecs, such as DivX, Xvid, Windows Media Video (video), MP3 and AAC (audio). WinDVD Pro 12 is the latest version with the most features and accommodations. However, competitors such as VLC have completely replaced WinDVD due to the lack of modern features WinDVD provides.
