Re: 64bit video player?


Pretty much:

If you want to use the 64bit version of WMP as the default player on Vista
64-bit, run "unregmp2.exe /SwapTo:64" from an ELEVATED (admin) cmd.exe
prompt and then set registry value
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App
Paths\wmplayer.exe, "Path" to be "%Programfiles%\Windows Media Player". To
undo that, reset the "Path" value and then run "unregmp2.exe /SwapTo:32"
from an elevated cmd.exe prompt.

See http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info.
