Anyone know where I can get this without having to pay someone?

Thanks

You can get version 9 from here:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsme...lDownloads.aspx

Will that work on 98SE? It is only supposed to work on 2000, XP and Vista. Every link I found that says 7.1 turns out to be 9. The camera software I installed said to get version 7.1. I only have Windows mediia player 6.4 with codecs for WMP 9 installed.

If you install the Unofficial Auto-Patcher for Windows 98SE you can toggle More Options to on, click on the Windows Media Player module, and select to install Windows Media Encoder 7.1.

Or just download the Auto-Patcher and find the WME installer among the files in C:\Program Files\Auto-Patcher.

Or go to mdgx.com and locate his Windows Media updates page. Haven't checked myself for awhile but perhaps there's a link there to the WME 7.1 download.

Keep in mind that I remember reading a long time ago somewhere that it must be installed after WMP 7.1 and BEFORE WMP 9 for the whole package to get installed properly and have all its functions work.

The 9 encoder and above don't run on 9x.
