[Sussex] Windows Media Player 9 and Wine

[Matthew Macdonald-Wallace]

Hi all,

I need to run windows media player under wine.  Before I continue, I'd 
like to make the following clear:

1. I am trying to install a bespoke application to which I do not have 
access to source code.

2. It is written in C# and therefore uses the .net framework, however I 
cannot re-compile using mono because I do not have the source.

3. I _MUST_ use windows media player 9 as the .net control for media 
player 9 is integrated into the software.

4. Any media player other than windows media player 9 cannot be used.

OK, now that I've outlined that, here's what I've achieved so far:

I have a working installation of Wine 0.9 that has Media player 7, IE6 
and the .net framework installed sucessfully.  The only reason that this 
program will not install is because the install file looks for MEdia 
Player 9 and does not find it.

All help appreciated,

Cheers,

Matt
