Just for clarification...I found the following image which highlights what I
used to see when right clicking and selecting properties of audio/video files:

*Bump*

Anyone able to offer a suggestion please?

It's racking my brain trying to work out if it's possible to do...have been
experimenting on a fresh install of XP on a virtual machine but still can't
reproduce it.

Not sure if it's a third party program which was able to integrate WMP into
explorer right click properties of audio/video files but apart from codec
packs, I can't think of any programs I have used in the past which would've
done it.

Would really appreciate some advice please
