#Windows11 still supports old #MCI APIs to play audio and video files.
You can write your own player in a few lines of code with it.
But some files, especially #MP3 podcasts, could not be opened. 🤔

Why? Well, they came with embedded #jpeg images, so Windows fails to read them.

But there are great tools like #mp3tag to remove such attachments. Now I can listen to those podcasts too.

However, there are other OSS MP3 apps like #mpg123 without such bugs ... I should switch to them instead. 😁
