Hello,

I'm using a trimmed version of the Windows that had Media foundation removed. Whenever I play iTunes songs I get an error "Unable to play this file - it has unsupported format or is corrupted"  I'm guessing Musicbee uses media foundation to decode AAC but that's not an option for me anymore so is there any other workaround ?

Thanks for the kind help.

See the FAQ section of the wiki for instructions on using bass_aac.dll
However it may be the file is DRM protected in which case you will need to have that removed to play with MB
