I don't think it is related.
WMP is a standalone application. It doesn't affect Mplayer or NicePlayer
in any way.
If I'm not mistaking, NicePlayer is actually QuickTIme based. Mplayer,
of course uses the mplayer project sources.


WMP 9 is obsolete, buggy and officially abandonned by MS. MS themselves
recommend using the flip4Mac WMV codecs.
You can go back to the MS site and look for the WMV codecs for
QuickTime. They are free and work fairly well. They add WMV and WMA
support in all QuickTime-based applications.
This should solve the problem for NicePlayer (and 'm not sure anything
can be done for Mplayer to get it to read WM9 files - unless it can also
use QuickTime for decoding).
