--- Comment #15 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

I can't reproduce this, video playback works fine with Windows Media Player
9/10.

You need to hack 'winetricks' for recent Wine 1.7.x versions - since the
addition of wmp component.

--- snip ---
-    # Wine's wmvcore crashes when the installer asks it to register itself?
-    w_override_dlls native wmvcore
+    # remove builtin placeholders to allow update
+    rm -f "$W_SYSTEM32_DLLS"/wmvcore.dll "$W_SYSTEM32_DLLS"/wmp.dll
+    # need native wmp override to allow update and later checks to succeed
+    w_override_dlls native wmp
--- snip ---

I used this example video for testing:

sample video")

VC1 codec needed: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/942423

$ wine --version
wine-1.7.14-207-g8199430

Regards
