Problems with mp3

[Guest]

When I insert an Mp3 music, I always get the message "The specified file
cannot be played on the specified MCI device. This file may be corrupt, not
in the correct form, or no fil"

Can you fix this problem? Thanks.

Thanks! I needed that. Now I detected the problem. It is in the registry
editor. Hmmm... Can you give me the binary data for mp3? Thanks.

If you run regedit.exe and locate the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\MCI
Extensions - - mp3 entry, right click on mp3 and select "Modify" from the drop
down menu. Then change the value to MPEGVideo. Don't mess with the binary data
value.
