Playing mp3s in XP

When trying to play mp3s in external programs under Windows XP:

Haven't been able to get vlc to open this way (might need to add some arguments for it to open properly)
Windows media player runs, but seems to have problems recognising the arguments for the file to be played.

However windows media player classic does seem to work:

tag_program = """\"C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\mplayer2.exe\""""

You can add parameters too!

I like to launch videos with Media Player Classic in "fullscreen" mode! Simply add the text >> /fullscreen << as in the following example:

tag_program = """\"C:\mplayerc.exe /fullscreen\""""
