Re: For all G4C music lovers

 Hi Fer,

Weird! I even later found out that the original mp3 player example without the modifications
for me already plays mp3's with ID3-tag. The change with the "type mpegVideo" addition
(I believe it's case sensitive) does however work on video.

I have the same FFdshow setup as yours. Did you check if the mp3 decoder in FFdshow is enabled?
When you first install it there's a arbitrary choice of enabled/disabled decoders. In my FFdshow
version, I have the choice for libmad and libavcodec for mp3 and I had it set to libmad.
Audio is the dialog under the blue icon. Red is DirectShow video and yellow is VFW video.

"Media Player Classic" works with the DirectShow interface. To be honest, MCI is so outdated
that probably nothing currently released still works with it.

 Hi Chris
 

 I only saw your first reply just now,
 Anyway, I downloaded your examples but both players refuse to play MP3 with ID3 tag
 The $$retcode is 10 in your MCI Audio Player and  showing error 'problem initialising MCI'.
 One other strange thing is that the MP3 plays fine on WMP classic/FFDShow.
 I always thought that WMP Classic also uses MCI, but I may be wrong.
 It does use FFDShow which rules out FFDShow as cause of the problem.
 

 For now I will continue to remove ID3 tags whenever I get the error from MCI
 Thanks again for your input.
