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

    • Wow, spoken like a true blind hater, you don't even provide arguments. Please, go check my comment above to @seacaptain and you'll find out why what you say doesn't make sense in this context...
    • Get used to this, with AI tooling now uncovering new vulns and getting them exploitable far faster than has ever been possible before software is going to need to be updated far more frequently. Back in the day it may take reseachers weeks or months to do what AI can now do in hours. Once its a threat is discovered it's weaponsized far more quickly, meaning you simply can't be waiting 2, 3, 4 weeks to deploy a patch, it needs to be patched immediately. Going to be interesting handling this in the enterprise space where traditionally patching has been steady, but very staged (and rightly so up until now), that is going to have to change.
    • You don't need to "close all browser sessions constantly" or wait for updates to install. The updates download in the background while you use the browser, without interrupting you, they install automatically the next time you launch the app. And they install very fast (depending on your storage speeds, of course), you have to wait at most 2-3 extra seconds, if any. Seems like you haven't used Edge in a loooooooong time...
