Hello folks,

the app uses an ancient Media Player ActiveX control.
You need an old 6.x Media Player which bundles this ActiveX control.

WMP 7/9/10 will do nothing here, they no longer ship this control.

There is no winetricks recipe for older 6.x Media Player redistributable hence
you need to download/install manually.
