SysMetrix will bring up Windows Media Player, but none of the controls work – how come?

0

That’s because SysMetrix finds out which media player you have associated with .mp3 files, and executes that – which explains why WMP is started up correctly. However, SysMetrix uses the WinAmp2 API to control media players, so currently the supported players are WinAmp2, WinAmp5, QCD Player, CoolPlayer, and Foobar 2000 to a limited extent. I chose to implement that, as it works fantastically with the millions of users who are currently using WinAmp2, as well as those using my favorite media player, QCD Player.

What is your question?

*Sadly, we had to bring back ads too. Hopefully more targeted.
