When running Fix Video Sync to try to resolve Error C00D11CD, I see the following error:

Failed to apply 'Fix Video Sync' Unable to replace 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\WMVCORE.dll'. Verify that Zune and Windows Media Player are not running and try again.

I verified that neither Zune nor Windows Media Player were running. That did not resolve the issue.

Also tried looking for WMVCORE with Process Explorer, but it returned 0 matching items.

Finally, I renamed WMVCORE.dll and tried the Fix Video Sync option again, but the Zune Modding Helper closed.

This was with...

Howdy, sorry you're having issues.

If nothing is using the DLL and Codix's script works (as you indicated on Discord), there may be a permissions issue in ZMH. To clarify, this is a problem with ZMH, not anything you've done. ZMH currently runs as administrator, while IIRC Codix's script runs as TrustedInstaller, which allows it to do a lot more. I'll look into doing the same for ZMH.

The Mod Helper is really great. Thanks for putting this together. I have the same issue on Windows 11 unfortunately/

Howdy @marknoble @tbowman279! The latest release, 2024.5.18.0 Alpha, includes a complete rewrite of this mod. Would you mind giving it a try now?
