Bug ID: 45759
           Summary: Links 2003 needs native wmvcore
           Product: Wine
           Version: 3.15
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux

          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wmp&wmvcore

+wmvcore log of Links 2003

Links 2003 crashes on startup with builtin wmvcore. After copying wmvcore.dll
from a prefix with wintricks wmp9 it runs fine (using winetricks wmp9
unsurprisingly also works).

I've attached a +wmvcore log from a run with builtin wmvcore.

Clarification: the crash is handled by the application and a dialog is shown.
Unfortunately the info there is not copyable. The first part is

Exception Information
Code: 0xc0000005      Flags:0x00000000
Record: 0x0000000000000000     Address:0x0000000003d11004

Followed by some system information, a list of loaded modules, and a thread
dump.

So it was not clear to me whether this is just a duplicate of one of the other
open wmvcore bugs.

Hi, I found downloadlink here, and can confirm the bug

It seems to query for IWDRMReader interface, so I tried to add a quick stub for
that but still got a crash. 
It also queries for 
WMReader_QueryInterface (0x1c1d258)->({7af7d5ed-4ef9-48da-a4b6-8ea7eb38f5cc}
0x33fa7c)

I haven`t got a clue what interface 7af7d5ed-4ef9-48da-a4b6-8ea7eb38f5cc stands
for, its nowhere defined in wmsdkidl.idl, but if i return the same IWDRMReader
interface  and another small hack, see patch, the game starts albeit without a
video.

Does anyone know 7af7d5ed-4ef9-48da-a4b6-8ea7eb38f5cc is???

I can confirm that the patch also makes the full game run fine in a clean
prefix. I didn't see any obvious problems except it now seems to crash on exit.

I couldn't find any information either and was therefore dismissing the non
implemented interfaces as a red herring (not that I could've done anything
about it anyway:-) Thanks for working on this.

The crash is caused by this unknown interface.  You can Query for this
interface on windows and it returns a valid object.  If you map it, like in the
attached hack, it's clear that it's calling the first function after
QueryInterface.

This is unlikely to be resolved unless the interface can be identified.

Created attachment 73919
  --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=73919
Rebased and improved hack

I rebased the hack for wine 8.0, main difference is that when asking for the
internal interface it return it's own vtbl (and not WMDRMReaderVtbl) and it's
refcount is properly increased (reason it was crashing with the previous hack)
Videos still don't play.
