In my trivial test (set the filename of a player to the path to the mp3 file; start the player) this isn't working, with a standalone on a machine running Windows XPembedded, without QuickTime or Windows Media Player. Also possibly worth noting, on the XPe machine I can play wav files embedded in the standalone as an audio clip (but not external wav files through a player). I have limited opportunities to investigate on the target platform (and we're extremely tight on space on the boot disk). Do I need to do something special in the way I build the standalone? Or is it that on Windows you don't need QuickTime - but only providing you do have Windows Media? I have tried running the same test on a PC running a standard installation of XP, from which I'd removed QuickTime (fully, as far as I can tell) and indeed was able to play an MP3 file, with a gratifying display glitch where the controller/player should have been. So what counts as the minimum installation to play MP3 in this way? Or in fact any external audio file? (Is there another way to play external audio files without using a player object?)
