Default No sound when playing DVD's with WMP - Solved

Hi
Having trawled the forums to find a solution, I thought I'd document it here.
Installing Nero6 and WMP9 I had no sound playing back DVD's, though other movies and music were fine.
Turns out that Nero over-writes the audio codec in WMP (think Nero7 might be ok). To check, open WMP>tools>options>DVD>advanced. If it shows Nero in the main tab, you've lost your audio codec for DVD playback.
Downloaded 'ac3 filter' from here.
I used v1.09a because I knew it worked, but there are newer versions available.
