Bug ID: 35688
Summary: iMesh 7.x reports 'You are using an older version of
Windows Media Player!' (needs WMP 10 version registry
key)
Product: Wine
Version: 1.7.13
Hardware: x86
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
Reporter: focht at gmx.net
Hello folks,
as the summary says... and the popup seems to be harmless (app still works).
The requested version seems to be application version dependent: iMesh 7.x
wants at least WMP 10.x
There doesn't seem to exist a common WMP API to retrieve the version.
Applications use different ways to check for it.
For example bug 35677 where the installer checks the version resource of
'C:\\Program Files\\Windows Media Player\\wmplayer.exe'
This app reads WMP version key from registry.

I created the key in a fresh WINEPREFIX and it made the app happy.
