sounds 2 by schumi on 06-09-2004 at 12:49 AM
My problem: I don't have the sounds "Mouahahahaha!" for example !
Else, all my sounds work (mp3, wav , when a contact is connecting, ...)
"are you sure you have configured properly the sound options in plus? (ie: play sound while busy and allow the use of sound commands)"
->Yes, I'm sure
on the other hand,I don't have windows media player 9 and I don't wan't it 
If it's the problem, is there a solution ??
If someone have an idea...
ps: sorry for my french's english

Yo don't have to have Windows Media Player (I don't believe)..Try this goto: Plus>Preferencs>General Options>Sound Config then on the "Play sounds using the defauld MPEG1 codec or Play sounds using the default MPEG2 codec...Check the OPPOSITE one you have checked now...then apply the changes and then restart msn messenger and see if it works...Hope this helps

If I talk about Wmp , it's because I've seen this in previous thread. I too, think it's strange ...
And I try MPEG1 and 2, and always not sounds.
I don't understand, and I think you can't help me, maybe one day I will find ....
Thanks for reply Sean

No no, it's not the problem
My problem is in Plus ! I don't have special sounds of Plus !!
I think it's the codec the problem.
Do you know what is the codec I have to have to hear the sounds ?
ps: I've tried to install microsoft codec but no change

Have you tried re-installing messenger plus??
RE: sounds 2 by schumi on 06-09-2004 at 11:42 PM
Yes, I've all tried, all combinations :
->6.2 + plus 3.1.94
->6.2 + plus 3.1.94
->6.1 + plus 2.5
Nothing 
I've tried all the codecs packs -> nothing
MPEG1, MPEG2 ->nothing
What Plus uses to play sounds ?? (.acm, .dll, ?)
RE: sounds 2 by Patchou on 06-10-2004 at 05:53 PM
Plus uses the default MPEG player registered in Windows (MCI Extensions). It's generally the same codec used by Media Player. If you cant hear sounds, I can guarentee that theres something wrong with the soudn codecs installewd on your computer.

I love you patchou !!!!!!!!!!
Yèèèèèss
Indeed, it was a problem of MCI
In regedit:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\MCI32
I don't have MPEGVideo and MPEGVideo2 values
We must have: (REG_SZ)
AVIVideo = mciavi32.dll
CDAudio = mcicda.dll
MPEGVideo = mciqtz32.dll
MPEGVideo2 = mciqtz32.dll
Sequencer = mciseq.dll
WaveAudio = mciwave.dll
Thanks everybody for help
