windows 7 gen_ml.dll error with KMPlayer
gen_ml.dll (media library winamp plugin) problem is a common issue in Windows Vista/Windows 7. Playback seemed to work for me, but startup was extremely slow and the screen froze for ten seconds. To avoid it you can do one of the following:
- Delete gen_ml.dll from plugins folder if you don’t need it (Recommended) (I tried renaming the file, but it still caused problems)
- Install KMP in a folder with admin rights.
- Run KMP with admin rights (right click on file -> properties)
- Disable UAC in Windows Vista (not recommended)

Look for for gen_ml.dll in the PlugIns folder of KMPlayer (on my computer, that’s: C:Program Files (x86)The KMPlayerPlugIns ) and delete it, but my advice is to let a competent computer guy/gal help you out.

Slow KMPlayer launch on Win7 (32-bit & 64-bit), issues on WinAmp plugin files.
Delete the following files:
gen_hotkeys.dll
gen_ml.dll
gen_ml
from C:Program FilesThe KMPlayerPlugins (32-bit); or,
from C:Program Files (x86)The KMPlayerPlugins (64-bit)
You should have a quick starting KMPlayer… just like before.

Hmm, kmplayer sounds like mplayer and indeed it is a special mplayer version for KDM. I am 100% on KDM and guess: my version comes with gmplayer, the gnome version (Linux). It works nicely, but I never use it. Dragonplayer (simple) and VLC (all you want). But on the other hand, I’m not on windows.

I switched to KMPlayer from VLC because I like the interface and default settings more, but I still use VLC when I find files that are hard to open or when I have subtitle problems.
