Installing the Windows Media Format SDK version 11 made no difference when running the player example from mobility 1.1
I have the same problem with Phonon. Which means if I want to write a cross-platform metadata loader that works with MP3s on windows, I can't use Phonon or Multimedia. That's nuts. I wish someone would test this particular configuration on windows some day. I can't be the only person who is trying to do it.
