Setting WMP skin in winnt.sif?


Recommended Posts


Just going to use this registry setting for now! this is for WMP10 (you will need to change the red area for your own skin)

EDIT: Edited to the correct format that is supplied below by simonsays.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Skins]"CurrentSkin"="C:\\Documents and Settings\\Administrator\\Application Data\\Microsoft\\Media Player\\Skins\\Snow-black.wmz"

"SkinX"=dword:00000021

"SkinY"=dword:0000000c

Hope that helps someone...

I got this info from the WMP9 thread: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=10286&hl=

** Also check below for the method of including it into your .THEME file (best way)

first, to use that regtweak you need to change the [HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1454471165-1580436667-854245398-1003 value so...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Skins]"CurrentSkin"="C:\\Documents and Settings\\Administrator\\Application Data\\Microsoft\\Media Player\\Skins\\Snow-black.wmz"
...and prathapml pointed the best option, simply specify a .theme file in your winnt.sif and include in the theme the wmp skin you preffer

I think it is to be placed here:

C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\Skins\

So therefore,

1. it is to be placed on the CD at:

$OEM$\$Progs\Windows Media Player\Skins\

2. Or, you can make an SFX archive to extract silently to "%ProgramFiles%\Windows Media Player\Skins\"

Does it work now? :)
