Windows 7 MCE - No subs

Posted on February 15th, 2009 in Windows 7 by Terp

So .. wanted to see an AVI movie (backup ofcourse) on my newly installed media center, but after installing Win7 on my MCE it didt show subs, after some search on the www i found this solution,

On Win7 32bit;
1) Rename the MP3DMOD.DLL file in system32 folder to MP3DMOD_bak.DLL
2) Take ownership of mfpmp.exe in system32 folder
It may require you to have full ownership of the file, a guide to that is right here: Take Ownership Guide

On Win7 64bit:
1) Rename the MP3DMOD.DLL file in windows\syswow64 folder to MP3DMOD_bak.DLL
2) Take ownership of mfpmp.exe in system32 folder, not rename, just ownership

This may disable playback of mp3 files on your system, but as far as i can read, you can copy this file from vista and that should fix the problem, i will try to locate the files from my friends pc so all of you can leech it from my site.
