(And if this doesn't work, I guess I'll just hunt down an old junker PC and try that. By InterActual Technologies InterActual-enhanced DVD titles, also known as DVD-ROM titles, include added-value features provided by studios to their customers. So my question is - does anyone remember what software played DVDs on Windows 98? I figure I can probably track down a copy of that software on eBay or my usual flea market junk piles. Problem is, I have no idea what kind of software ran DVDs on Windows 98, and their documents aren't helpful either. I installed Interactual on my VM and the browser side of things worked, but when I tried to run the DVD through it, it complained about needing software or hardware to play the DVD. One I'm working on is Scary Movie, which let you play back the movie in the browser while also playing a trivia game. In addition to providing DVD playback control it makes available extra material on some DVDs, including commentaries, pop-up notes, synchronized screenplays and games. The browser stuff works fine-ish, but some of these DVDs also had features where you could play back the DVD in a browser and have other stuff going on - like the screenplay or whatever. InterActual Player, known originally as PC Friendly, was a media player for Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X, included on some DVDs with movie files. I'm doing some prep work for a future project of mine which involves the older PCFriendly / Interactual Player stuff that came on DVDs. I use it to run small, early 2D Windows games that don't need much power or speed. I currently have a Windows 98 VM in VirtualBox.

I know this question is really out there, but please, bear with me.
