WMPTSE - How to add support for a filetype: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 23:28, 8 November 2006

Note:

This guide assumes that you have already downloaded and installed Windows Media Player and WMPTSE.

In this guide, we will be adding an APEv2 tagging to our MediaLibrary .png files (why not...?).

The png format being a container format, our tag binary data will not be interpreted by the png readers, saving us the trouble.

But beware if you add tagging support for non-container file types (.txt, .bin, .dat, etc...), you'll end up with a [i]corrupted[i] file
