They are all the best for someone. The question you should be asking is
how well this one will work with wvgui. The answer is you can tell me
when you are done testing.

I recommend you avoid using the driver and just use pe.exe to start any
win32 apps you run standalone. wvgui does not need the driver.

At the risk of repeating myself, I recommend not wasting your time with
Mozilla testing until you have a working wvgui/Odin setup.

Don't spend to much time worring about the state of the X. It's a samll
bug. The X needs to be on to enable audio.

>I

That's known as Sorensen audio.

>Anything else I should do to "help" WarpVision work better?

I'm still not convinced that you have Odin and wvgui connected up. Do you
see any messages from wvgui to the effect that it is starting Odin?

Do you have a download link for the wmv you are trying to play?

Also, it's been said before, but in case you forgot, the file extension of
a multimedia file says very little about the actual file content. This is
all encoded in the file headers.

Regards,

Steven
