I am integrating Windows Media Player 11 with nLite.

I can click a media file and it plays, but then when I click a 2nd,
3rd, 4th, 5th file, instead of it playing, it just gets added to the
playlist.

Under "Tools > Options > Player > Add media files to library when played"
that box is unticked, so it shouldn't be behaving like this.

Here are some reg tweaks I am using for WMP11, could any of these
tweaks be making it not work?!

The only tweak I can see that relates to this is the last one "AutoAddMusicToLibrary"
and this is set to "0" in other words no, don't "AutoAddMusicToLibrary".

Sheesh... I don't get it.

do you have copy to/move to registry tweaks as well? they cause funny things to happen, or at least that I've seen before...

No.

I will leave those tweaks out and install Windows again, see if it still happens.

I am also putting these tweaks in via nLite:

QUOTE

Windows Media Player-Accept Privacy Statement
Windows Media Player-Disable auto-add music to library
Windows Media Player-Disable automatic codec download
Windows Media Player-Disable metadata retrieval
Windows Media Player-Disable MRU
Windows Media Player-Disable silent acqusition
Windows Media Player-Disable starting with Media Guide
Windows Media Player-Do not show anchor in Designmode
Windows Media Player-Enhanced privacy settings
Windows Media Player-No visualization
Windows Media Player-Optimize fullscreen mode behavior
Windows Media Player-Remove all context menu entries
Windows Media Player-Zoom video to windowsize

Its also disabled there too!

In the NLITE.INF those tweaks translate as follows:

QUOTE

"AcceptedPrivacyStatement",0x00010001,1
"FirstRun",0x00010001,0
"LaunchIndex",0x00010001,1

"ClipFullScreen",0x00010001,1
"StretchToFit",0x00010001,1
"SnapToVideo",0x00010001,0

It seems to be the correct tweak but it is set to not add music to the library.

Thats the library though - its the PLAYLIST I am having the problem with... ummmm.....

As far as I can see from your posts, both the setting and the tweak have to do with the -library-, as you noted. Adding files to the playlist rather then playing them is just the way WMP works I think, don't know if there's a setting for it (but the setting you talked about isn't it)
