testing if support for some wmp10 games could be implemented:
search proton issues and found those I own:

ValveSoftware/Proton#1649 : looks like wmp10 and quartz are not enough: #39

ValveSoftware/Proton#829 : nope, neither wmp10+quartz, nor wmp11+quartz(+ disabled winegstreamer) fixed this glitch

ValveSoftware/Proton#770 : the game start and seems to be very playable with HACKWMP10=1 and
WINETRICKSPAKS=d3dx9_43 but videos are black (cinepak,directshow,quartz didn't help)

ValveSoftware/Proton#576 : damn, both titles already do work with wmp11, adding both as tweaks

Would be nice if you test other titles you own.
With some luck a tweakfile ($SteamAppId.conf) with
HACKWMP10=1
is already enough

also testing
ValveSoftware/Proton#4052
edit: nope - this game simply has CEG protection...

I have the feeling that the wmp10 hack doesn't make games crash anymore, but also doesn't help alone to get videos working
(at least also the both Giana titles have a short black screen at the beginning, this could be a missing logo).
Haven't debugged this yet, so no new issue for now (any maybe even not at all...)
edit:
Not worth the effort, for the few games.
Both Giana games do work fine even if videos are missing, which probably are the two most important wmp10 games.
