VMR9 handler outdated (1 Viewer)

[GWI]

I tried to start MP 1.0 but the screen stays on 'Initializing DirectX'. I get an error message: VMR9 handler is outdated. Can anyone help me to fix this?

I would assume that you are using Windows XP. Please install SP3, it has up to date quartz.dll.

where can I find SP3?

Windows XP SP3 can be found through Windows Update.

Hi...

I have the same problem, upon launch of MP1.0 the screen stucked at init DirectX and I go to Windows Task Manager and discover VMR9 Handler is Outdated in application. I killed it and MP1.0 continued. It worked. I tried everything, and it worked. I can watch movie, TV, music etc.

But after that first time fluke, When I start MP1.0 again it always crashed afterward, everytime I try it crashed. And I can't write the log, because the log crashed too. I waited for like 10 minute and the log bar thing just stuck half way. So sorry can't post log.

Is there any other options beside XP SP3 ? My PC wouldn't work (like I have to re-install Win XP32 if I put in SP3) I had to roll back to SP2. It's an old PC I am using for HTPC.

Later I am going to try windowsxp-kb927544-x86-enu.exe as another older thread suggested, will that work as an alternative to SP3 ?

I am going to report back later when I have time to try it. But if there are other solution please help me. Thank you.
