I'm trying to make Media Player the default player for mp3,dvds etc for all
my XP Sp2 machines in a 2003 Domain.

Is there any way I can do this via group policy settings, or is it simply a
case of re-installing MP on all machines to make it the default player again?

I don't mind creating my own policy file - but I'm not sure where the
settings are that I need.
 
You could run this command during system startup, using a batch file:

"C:\WINDOWS\INF\unregmp2.exe /SetWMPAsDefault"

Equivalent to using "Set Program access and defaults" feature in Control
Panel Add/Remove Programs applet.
