           Summary: Age of Empires 3: mp3's don't play in gstreamer if a
                    native codec is installed
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.8
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: austinenglish at gmail.com


This is a bit weird, but the game installs its own codec, l3codecx.ax. If you
install the trial in wine-1.3.8-89-gfa12dd9, then apply the patch from bug
8978, mp3's (background music, narrator's voice work fine. Using the same
technique in the full version, however, fails.

If you do:
$ wine regsvr32 /u l3codecx.ax
$ wine age3.exe

the game will complain that it can't find its codec, but then mp3's play fine.

It seems the trial doesn't install that codec, only the full version does. For
giggles, I tried doing `winetricks -q l3codecx` with the trial installed, but
mp3s still work for it.
