V99.5 .NET Error: Could not load type 'AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer' from assembly '

[Hornet]

I have recently upgraded GBPVR to V99.5 and on startup I get this .NET error:

Could not load type 'AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer' from assembly 'AxInterop.WMPLib, Version=9.0.0.3095, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.

I have upgraded / reinstalled .NET 2; WMP 9; GBPVR; MDAC 2.6 and all service packs are up to date. Any ideas how to overcome this?

Below are the log contents:

Maybe try deleting AxInterop.WMPLib.dll in the GB-PVR directory.

Hi sub

Thanks for the suggestion but removing the dll resulted in the following error when starting GBPVR:

---------------------
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'AxInterop.WMPLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

---------------------------

Perhaps there is a newer version of the dll I need?

[sub]

The one that is installed with GB-PVR should be the right one (attached).

If that still doesnt work, maybe try installing WMP10?

Hi Sub

Thanks for the updated AxWMPLib dll - solved the problem. I'm not sure how an old version was installed in the GBPVR folder though. I'm also glad I didn't have to install the WMP 10 virus to fix things!

Cheers from Victoria!

(PS. and thanks for all your hard work on this project!)
