RE: Windows Media Player Default Rip Locations

Hi Dave,

Use the following ADM.

;---------------------------------------------
CLASS USER

CATEGORY !!MediaPlayer

POLICY !!ChangeRipPath
KEYNAME "Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences"
EXPLAIN !!ChangeRipPath_Explain

PART !!HelpPathName_Edit EDITTEXT
VALUENAME "CDRecordPath"
END PART

END POLICY

END CATEGORY

[strings]
ChangeRipPath="Change Media Player Rip Path"
ChangeRipPath_Explain="Change Media Player Rip Path"
MediaPlayer="Media Player"
HelpPathName_Edit="Enter Media Player Rip Path (C:\\RipLocation)"
;----------------------------------------


Preferences are not visible in GPMC by default. You must select Media Player
node with mouse right click and then select View ->Filtering...
On the Filtering Tab you should uncheck Only show policy settings that can
be fully managed.

Regards,
