 X3 Renuion is listed in the databse as not having a working sound and
movies. That's true, but I tried to overcome this. I noticed that a lot of
problems come form the neraly not implemented amstream.dll. Since this is
for streaming audio and video I thought that maybe installing the Windows
Media Player might help here a bit. I used wine-doors to install WM6.4 and
it did indeed provide an amtream.dll, but the game was not better... because
the native amstream.dll was not used..

You might also try
  wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
  sh winetricks wmp10

It might register the codecs better, who knows.  (And clean out your .wine
first, it's always better to start clean when trying to figure things out,
even though it means reinstalling apps.)

 err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {94297043-bd82-4dfd-b0de-8177739c6d20} not
registered

That's "WMVideo_Decoder_DMO", part of quartz.dll.

ok, seems I accidently closed the post without sending... it is late already here. Anyway I killed my wine and used your winetricks. The media player does accept mp3 files, but their playback is horrible. Usually you get first nothing, then a short something and then the mp3 is closed again. No audio pleasure here. It seems it depends on the mp3, because of several I tested one did play. The mp3 files from the game however do not. Also the movies don't play. Looks like the codec is not found. And according to that you get it equally in the game. The only thing that is better now, is that the mouse is suddenly quite useable in the menu... which doesn't mean I can use it for flying... there the mouse is still one sad adventure. I tried to install more codecs, but it didn't help much. As before I used then native versionsof amstream, devenum and quartz, but it did not help much. Insteadif the application crashes no, it does so with a really big stack. And that is for both, the media player and the game. To me it looks like the correct codec

message like

fixme:mpeg3:III_get_side_info_1 big_values (511) too large!
fixme:mpeg3:III_dequantize_sample mpg123: Can't rewind stream by 462 bits!

seem to tell me that no native mp3 codec is used... and that the one used by wine is not good enough. I get many errors of this kind:

err:d3d_surface:IWineGDISurfaceImpl_PrivateSetup (0x247fb78) Overlays not yet supported by GDI surfaces err:ddraw:IDirectDrawImpl_CreateNewSurface IWineD3DDevice::CreateSurface failed. hr = 8876086c

more ideas?

bye Jochen
