TMediaPlayer Delphi control. The sound files it attempts to play are .WAV files which are in fact WAVE Microsoft PCM. I tried everything I could imagine (installed Ms MediaPlayer 7.1, killed artsd, tried both on alsa and on OSS kernel driver, tried wineoss, winealsa and winearts, triple-checked file permissions....). Still does not work. And I do not know why. So the first question: does anybody has success-receipt to have application using Delphi TMediaPlayer control to play sound under wine? After glazing at wine config I imagined that maybe I could configure wine so it intercepts sound related calls and passess them to some program I would write. Are there any examples/hints/suggestions/... of how to do it? In fact, if I managed to force wine to call some my program or script passing it the file name whenever it wants to play the sound file, I would be 100% happy Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
