Bug ID: 39367 Summary: EA Origin crashes after installing games, needs mf.dll.MFCreateMediaSession Product: Wine Version: 1.7.51 Hardware: x86 URL: http://www.dm.origin.com/download OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: gyebro69@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 52476 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=52476 terminal output
When Origin client finished with downloading the selected game, it automatically installs the game. When installation is done Origin performs some more actions which results in a crash: wine: Call from 0x7b839b3c to unimplemented function mf.dll.MFCreateMediaSession, aborting
Despite of the crash the game is installed properly and if you restart the client, it marks the game as installed and ready to play. Workaround to the crash: disable mf.dll in winecfg.
You can reproduce the problem if you have an Origin account: Origin always offers one of EA's classics for free. Currently the free game is C&C: Red Alert 2: https://www.origin.com/en-ie/store/free-games/on-the-house
Tested with Origin version 9.9.1.62656 wine-1.7.51-268-g781b88b Fedora 22 32-bit
