The remote control is just that - it allows you to adjust the volume, play,
paus, next track etc in media player and power DVD.
I use the remote when it comes up with the list of programs on the disk, as
I could not figure out how to make it play one in media player either.
Pressing playon the remote sets it off as if you had selected the play all
option that is usually the top of the list of programs. It isn't a perfect
solution, but it's good enough for me, for now.

Hi Ibrahim and Mark,
Ibrahim - no I'm not receiving any error messages. It seems DVD
playback is automatically included in my version of Vista. If I tell
it to play in Windows Media Player it starts playing the beginning
music/menu/intro whatever it is, over and over again, and I can find a
list of chapters/titles but cursoring through them and pressing Enter
or space does nothing. So I think this is an accessibility issue, not
a compatibility issue.
Mark - what does this remote do? And do you/anyone know if/how I tell
if a program file is compatible before I try and instal it? Because I
have a setup file for Power DVD but I can't remember which version it
is...
