ok, change of plans. I found out some info that mplayer2 hasn't been touched since win98, and was recomended to download Media Player Classic. I did, and i love it - therefore, i'd like to update my request: associate all the codecs (ex: swgreed's Unattended Codec Pack) with Windows Media Player Classic (classic: start -> run -> mplayerc) That means no "What would you like to use to open this file" dialogs for ANY movie file type (.avi, .mpg, .mpeg, .qt, .rm, etc.) - just opens in windows media player classic.
