Some other programm (like DVD player SW) has to register a component that tells the MS Media Player that it will decode the file, and hand over the result to the MS MEdia player. So you can find out how to register such a component. Or use MPEG1. BTW: There are rumors that there is a MPEG2 player "hidden" on the Windows XP Install CD you can also try to install. auf hoffentlich bald, Berni the Chaos of Woodquarter Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~gz/bernhard ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.
