Thanks 1Bowtie ,Mr Grim sure knows his stuff.
Found some resouces information about wmploc.dll
LINK
Copied it all into a text file and attached it , maybe some knows what i means ? Lots of other .DLL information on the site as well.
BASKET_BG_BOTTOM - extended to 1000 pix high ,maybe extend it over sideways as well ? but untested sideways so far. ( covers all burn box , up to search bar area ) Thank you Mr Grim once again.
SPLITTER_BOTTOM.PNG - dividing vertical line on burn box area.
SPLITTER_TOP.PNG- Same as above. ^^^^
BOTTOM PLAYER CONTROL BAR - Bitmaps- 5402. Extended that in length to 1280 Pix.
MAIN SEARCH BOX - bitmap - 2222 but its indexed and it wont edit ? Cant replace it eiither , ran out of ideas on that one. same as left hand vertical divider ( opposite to SPLITTER_BOTTOM.PNG and SPLITTER_TOP.PNG )
BASKET_CB_BG - under burn button. ( I tried to extend it to cover search box but wont work)
In the BITMAPS folder , it has lots of Pink/Red/Green bitmaps , would they be in control of transparency ? Maybe the key to the search boxes ...but im most likely wrong on that.Must be a way to get rid of the white boxes ?Last edited by Legacy Code; 18 Feb 2010 at 17:26. Reason: forgot text file lol.

Same here, no luck on getting the search bitmap to work. >_<
Also, Legacy, those multicolor bitmaps, are they shaped? Like circles and squares? They might be the trigger files.

Mostly the shape of the main players controls ,some to do with animation backgrounds and some oblong as well , hence me thinking search menu ? Have a look in the bitmaps and you will see what i mean , kinda like R/G/B.So is the pink a colour thats not recognised ( like blue screen in the films ? ) I may try messing about with them and see what i can break. Did you look at that link i sent in the PM ? I cant make head nor tail of the resource list.
1st is back/forward buttons , 2nd is ???? 3rd is basic player controls. Maybe they are just triggers after all ? Be handy if they was named instead of just numbers.
257 / 4004 ( looks like a white box) is a .GIF ,not animated but transparent and it cant be edited either ?

Well, the first and third pics are definitely trigger pics. And, yes, the pink is the non-recognized color. Which may lead to allowing you to add transparency to the bitmaps via using the pink color (believe it's 255,0,255 on the RGB scale, and on non-trigger bitmaps
). The second and fourth pics, I do not recognize...

Just tried to convert it to PNG , then invert the colour and save it as a BMP . Saves ok but search is still white in WMP ? Been looking around on DeviantArt and all the WMP12 skins have a white search box as well . Must be a way to do it ???????
It don't look to bad like that in the capture either.....

I "think" I have worked out what the problem is .....
Okay i was trying to locate the elusive file for the search bar and was messing about with some bitmaps. I have been grouping BMP's and came up with the idea to try and separate each player by colour as a process of elimination.
CORPORATE is done ( see attachment ) nothing special , just did it bright so i wont confuse files so i can list them. Look at the background image , Kinda looks like the search bar colour ?
I then replaced all the library images ( wallpapers ) and made them all black ,that did nothing ....So im thinking that what we see in the background may be the players "base" layer. Remember i mentioned that i broke WMP12 and got some error boxes with an image missing red X ? well that shows the base layer of the player. So if we find the base layer it may change the search box colour.
Im more than likely wrong on this , but its worth a shot. It will be most likely small in size , like 10 x 10 pix to allow for resizing and different screen resolutions.
