NS_E_WMP_JPGTRANSPARENCY
Where the Player stopped
NS_E_WMP_JPGTRANSPARENCY is HRESULT 0xC00D1005. At the JPEG transparency checkpoint it means a JPEG resource was selected for a skin transparencyColor operation that depends on exact pixel values; the result belongs to the skin artwork decoder and raster-file contract, not to an unspecified Player failure.
The generated part of the What Is page already shows the standard AllStat description for this HRESULT. The additional test for the JPEG transparency condition is to record the JPEG resource, transparencyColor, decoded pixels around the keyed region and a lossless comparison image; that evidence is more useful than reinstalling the Player or changing several unrelated settings at once.
Why the producing component matters
How to prove the condition
- Find the first component that returned this result and label that event as the JPEG transparency boundary.
- Freeze the input and object identity associated with JPEG transparency before WMP fallback or cleanup changes it.
- Reconstruct the immediately preceding successful state for JPEG transparency, then identify the call or event that crossed into failure.
- Perform the code-specific test: record the JPEG resource, transparencyColor, decoded pixels around the keyed region and a lossless comparison image.
- Make the narrow correction—use PNG, GIF or BMP artwork whose key color is preserved exactly by the encoding—and repeat the same producing operation for JPEG transparency.
Minimum useful incident record
Capture the JPEG transparency state before the Player advances, reloads, rescans or destroys the owning object:
- Decisive check: record the JPEG resource, transparencyColor, decoded pixels around the keyed region and a lossless comparison image.
- Artifact: format header fields, dimensions, bit depth and color model for the JPEG transparency reproduction.
- State: first invalid marker/chunk and its byte offset for the JPEG transparency reproduction.
A narrow remediation path
Neighboring codes to separate
| Result | Different boundary |
|---|---|
NS_E_WMP_IMAGE_FILETYPE_UNSUPPORTED | the resource signature identifies an image type that the WMP skin loader does not support |
NS_E_WMP_IMAGE_INVALID_FORMAT | the image type is recognized, but its common header or dimensions are invalid before format-specific decoding |
NS_E_WMP_GIF_UNEXPECTED_ENDOFFILE | the GIF decoder cannot obtain all bytes required to finish the image |
