To get a media preview just like in WIN2k pro !!!


Recommended Posts

Hi,

How do i get like a preview when i select a media file like an mp3, mpeg etc... Like in WIN 2k pro if u select a media file in the right side (File Details) of the tab u get a windows preview player where u can play it with out even opening media player... Does any know how to enable this in WINXP PRO ????

Thanks in advance ...

If you can get a folder of a Win2k machine, and copy it over to your Winxp machine it will retain the html formatting that Win2k used to display web folders.

Make sure you copy it to your root directory and not your desktop, for some reason soon as you put it on your desktop XP converts it to its own format :(

Anyway, here's a rar file with a win2k folder in it for anyone that wants to have a play...
