Problem
Audio waveform and midi play fine by themselves (including System Sounds). However, no audio is heard when playing video clips.
This problem exists in OS/2 2.1 and above. A defect has been opened against the affected component (SVMC). Below is a workaround.
Solution
Rename the resource DLL name to greater than 7 characters. Don't forget to also modify the MMPM2.INI file to reflect the same new name. For example,
  1. in MMPM2.INI under the "[IBMAMPMIX01]" category go to the line that says PARMSTRING= now search for RESOURCEDLL=. This is the name of the IHV's DLL. Change the name to something of at least 7 characters.
  2. in \MMOS2\DLL copy or rename the resource DLL to the new 7 or 8 character name.
  3. Reboot.
NOTE for IHVs
Please name your resource DLL to something of at least 7 characters. If your dll name was: MYRES.DLL, make it MYRESOUC.DLL.
