Problem playing music imported from Emumovies

[moppedz]

Hi, I have a problem playing the music that was imported from Emumovies for my collection. I already checked if audio files are present. They are (mp3) and can play them using my VLC player manually. Once I rightclick a game in Launchbox and choose "Play Music" i get an windows error popup message saying:

Could not play music file: Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6} failed due to the following error: 80040154 Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT:0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG)).

I am using Windows 8.1 Professional (6.03.9600) x64 Latest Launchbox Beta (5.10-beta-1) with premium license in desktop mode. Maybe someone knows how to fix that, thanks in advance.

I don't know if we use VLC for audio playback but I've forwarded this to Jason.

The moment I read your comment i realized i cleaned up my Windows installation and removed Windows Media Player under "activate/deactivate Windows-Features" in System Settings. Reinstalled it and it works now. Would be great when VLC gets support for audio playback. In video settings we can already choose between WMP/VLC.

Yes, but unless you remove WMP mp3's play just fine automatically. Video's are more of a wild west with a hit and miss record, hence hte need for VLC that should hopefully make it 100% as well.

I do agree though that it would be good to get VLC support for music files as well. Support is much better with VLC than it is with WMP for various formats, etc. Planned. :)
