Hi!
I have the same problem with the Mmedia plugin. It crashes with the same error code when I try to view .mp3 files in lister.
How did you cope to find out which codecs were misbehaving in the CodecTweakTool?
Which settings need to be used for that purpose?

I have the same problem too.

I was struggling with error 80040154 for at least a week, tried dozens of options, all in vain, but finally found the answer. For mmedia plugin to work correctly in your system must be installed Windows Media Player. In my Windows 10 it was uninstalled or not installed originally. Installed it here:
Options > Applications > Applications and components > Manage additional components > Add component > Windows Media Player > Install.
May the power be with you.

Thank you. I wish there was a solution other than installing Windows Media Player.
