This thread is almost a year old. The only file which should be used is the one I posted in the other thread (where I also posted the wallpaper).

Olive Verde WMPLOC.dll skin:

Download

With my WMP9 fully up to date my wmploc.dll is version 9.0.0.2980 which is what that Olive Verde skin is.

I tried to use that Windows Media Player dll file, but the version number doesnt match my player version. Is there a simple way to change the version number on the dll?

Run

c:\windows\inf\unregmp2.exe /UpdateWMP

and that "mismatched dll" message should go away, if you're just trying to get rid of that "Version Blah Expected" message.

does anyone have a collection of these they could upload for me? i'd love to get hold of as many of these as possible, dontmatter what version of the file i'll just put images in new version :D

thanx heaps, i missed all this action since i wasnt here that long ago

I've got quite a few I made, I'll have to dig them up off of old CD's though.

Watercolor Ergo

Watercolor Blue

Watercolor Olive

Watercolor Grey

Redhat

Fedora

Classix

Windows Classic

Luna Blue

Olive Verde

I'll have to dig up some real old CD's, no promises though.

So I had a little bit of inspiration from this thread and decided to make my own skin.

The idea was to make it merge with the taskbar based on the OpusOS Deep Visual Style. Anyways here's my outcome so far...I know it's pretty sad but it's a start. Can anyone give me a few pointers on how exactlly I can go about skinning this? Only a few of my buttons actually work heh. Any help would be appreciated!

I noticed that in the registry WMP looks up HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\TaskbarPlayer, values "HorizontalMode" and "VerticalMode", which appears to allow for a skinning of the taskbar player without having to modify wmploc.dll... ... ?

I read through the first 8 pages of this thread(before giving up) and cannot find where I can download any skins(For my version) etc for skinning WMP9 in the taskbar..

Can some one please point me in the right direction

Im using WMP9 version 9.00.00.3075 on XP Pro

Thanks peoples

    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
