Media Control

Up until now we have not installed Media Control but we thought we would take it for a spin literally! It installed (v3.1) but it does not work. We have it set for Windows Media Player and when we click on any button nothing happens except when we click on Eject WMP appears on the screen. We have been trying this with a CD already in the CD player.

Yes we closed the TLB and restarted it but to no avail. Any ideas?

Do you install support for WMP? Also what is version of WMP do you use?

Sorry - we intended to include that information. We have the latest version - 9.00.00.3008. We are not sure what you mean "install support for WMP".

QSection : Go to the directory of the plugin i.e.

C:\Program Files\TrueLaunchBar\Plugins\Mediactl

Go into the folder SupportPlayers then install WM_tlbRC.exe

works fine in XP, not sure of 98 but should be good

Well we did not know about the SupportPlayers folder. We do now! So......we clicked on WM_tlbRC.exe and it indicated that the best place to install was in the Windows Media Player folder. Is this correct or should it go in the Mediactl folder somewhere? TLB instructions are not clear.

yes it should go into the players directory

Media Control is still non-functional. The only thing we get out of it is clicking on the Eject button makes WMP appear on the screen.

it seems to be a problem with 98,
i just tried it on my 98 machine and no luck there

Sorry to hear that but it does make us feel a little bit better because we now know it is not our machine or lack of skills preventing MC from functioning! ???
