I did some clean machine tests today and it turns out the VC++ installed by .NET 2.0SP1 is not compatible with Nero 8. So I'm sorry but I have to include VC++2005 redist files back in. Hopefully Nero will fix this in next version.

Upcoming Nero 8.3.2.1 changelog: - Nero files updated to 8.3.2.1 - removed VC++ redist files (install .NET 2.0SP1 or .NET 3.5 manually) - added Nero Patent Activation (SVCD support) - updated AntiVirus libs Now Nero 8 Micro is under 20 MB again Binary Setup Files and Nero Lite SDK will be uploaded this weekend.

i found this info http://dev.edngames.com/blogs/edn/archive/...y-checking.aspx Thanks Now .NET 2.0 SP1 is out I will remove VC++ 2005 Redist from Nero Lite.

Anyone knows if .NET 2.0 SP1 installs the VC++ 2005 Redistributable files? If so then I will remove these files from next Nero build. I didn't find any information about this myself. Does anyone have more info about NeroPatentActivation.exe and what it does? It seems a lot of people have trouble with latest version and maybe it's because of this file missing.

I'm glad Nero released another update. Lets see if I can fix some issues by performing a fresh analysis on this setup MY future plans for Nero is to develop a new tool to let people automaticly create a Nero Lite or Micro installer from an existing Nero setup file, so that I no longer have to distribute Nero binary files. Most probably this tool will be written in C#.

Nero 8 Lite and Micro are now updated to build 1.15.0.3. I have tried uploading the stuff to the FTP-server but I got timed out several times due to my low upload speed at home. I have contacted the site admin but I got no reply.

I'm uploading new builds to some FTP-server. However there were some problems when I tried uploading this weekend. Sorry for the delay

I have updated the script in last post to work with Daemon Tools 4.12.1. This script should work at any screen size. The mouse position is related to the Window position of the Daemon Tools right click menu. I still have to do some actual tests to make sure Daemon Tools get unattended installed. My idea is to install Daemon Tools at T12 using install.cmd. Daemon Tools need a reboot, so I can't configure Daemon Tools until desktop is loaded for the first time.

I'm not sure if this issue can be fixed. Some people also report this behaviour when using the full version. This problem started from version 8.2.8.0, but I did not alter the Nero Lite activation process. Lets hope next Nero update will fix it.

Upcoming is another minor bugfix release (note I'm still uploading the stuff now!): Nero 8.2.8.0 build 1.15.0.3 changelog: - fix dll register issue - fixed MSI version detection - upgraded SQLite to 3.56 - updated Anti-virus libs

I think it is still necessary if you want to force Nero to associate with bin and iso files. i didnt find full as option for setuptype . By default a full installation is choosen. So if you want all components (except any additional languages) then it's not necessary to specify this commandline option.

Is a known issue, will be fixed later this week. You can ignore the message for now. BTW in your commandline /TYPE should be either full or compact

I know of InfraRecorder, which is a great alternative in about 1-2 years I guess for Nero. Until then Nero Lite suits me best. I only develop Nero Lite for myself in the first place. To share some of my work I release by time Nero Lite SDKs you could use. If the size is a big issue for you then try looking for some other alternative versions of Nero, but be warned some functionality will be lost.

The grow in size is caused by two things: 1. Nero 8 is bigger. 2. I have bundled more languages together to save development time.

You can ignore the message for now. It appears that I did not set the right flags for that file. Will be fixed for next build. I have also uploaded new asian builds, there was some issue with Nero ControlCenter Help (not critical).

I have completed uploading all other builds today. People who have reported problems please test again using version 1.15.02 and report any problems

Good news is that AutoIt 3.2.11.0 beta is out which fixes the script. Sadly in Daemon Tools 4.12.1 it is not possible to use the keyboard to control the settings menu. I think it would be best to get the Window size and position of the window and then use the Mouse to click, but I could not accomplish that yet . Done Note this script is still a work in progress and requires AutoIt 3.2.11.0 beta or higher. This code will enable/disable secure mode, but might be tweaked to also support enabling/disabling toolbar and autoupdate settings. #NoTrayIcon #RequireAdmin #include <GuiConstantsEx.au3> #Include <GuiToolBar.au3> opt("WinTitleMatchMode",4) Run(@ProgramFilesDir & "\DAEMON TOOLS\daemon.exe") ;Wait for Daemon Tools installation to be finished If WinWait("DAEMON Tools", "Please wait ...", 5) Then WinWaitClose("DAEMON Tools", "Please wait ...", 120) EndIf ;Configure Daemon Tools (secure mode off) $hToolBar = WinGetHandle("[CLASS:Shell_TrayWnd]", "") $hSysTray = ControlGetHandle($hToolBar, "", "ToolbarWindow321") $BtnCnt = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hSysTray) $BtnTxt = "DAEMON Tools" ;Search for the right icon on the tray $i = 0 While $i < $BtnCnt If StringLeft(_GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hSysTray, $i),12) = $BtnTxt Then $BtnNum = $i ExitLoop EndIf $i += 1 WEnd If IsDeclared("BtnNum") Then ;Right click on the button and switch the secure mode option ;Open option menu _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton($hSysTray, $BtnNum, "right") ;Wait for Daemon Tools menu WinWait("[CLASS:#32768]", "", 5) $hnd = WinGetHandle("[LAST]") EndIf If Not @error Then SendKeepActive("[LAST]") ControlSend("[LAST]", "", "", "{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{UP}{RIGHT}{DOWN}") $size = WinGetPos("[CLASS:#32768]") EndIf If Not @error Then ;Default DTPanel off / on If ($size[2] = 158 AND ($size[3] = 186 OR $size[3] = 206)) Then $PosXSecureMode = $size[0] + 18 $PosYSecureMode = $size[1] + 32 ;Get current menutext color $color_menutext = StringSplit(RegRead("HKCU\Control Panel\Colors","MenuText"), " ") If Not @error Then $color_menutext = Dec(Hex($color_menutext[1],2) & Hex($color_menutext[2],2) & Hex($color_menutext[3],2)) Else ;Default menutext is black $color_menutext = 0 EndIf ;Check if Securemode is on If PixelGetColor($PosXSecureMode, $PosYSecureMode) = $color_menutext Then ;Switch secure mode off MouseClick("left", $PosXSecureMode, $PosYSecureMode) Sleep(500) Else ;Minimize Daemon Tools Menu WinSetState("[LAST]", "", @SW_MINIMIZE) EndIf EndIf EndIf install.cmd (T12) title Daemon Tools 4.12.1 ::settings added to current user runonce section will be installed when desktop is loaded! ::Note @T12 %cd% doesn't work set CurrentPath=%~dp0 set CurrentPath=%CurrentPath:~0,-1% set CurrentUserRunOnce=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce ::Note SPTD Driver v1.55 included with Daemon Tools 4.12.1 ::otherwise use SPTDinstaller with 'add /q' ::you have to reboot or Daemon Tools won't be installed daemon4121-lite.exe /S ::Install Daemon Tools when desktop is loaded reg add "%CurrentUserRunOnce%" /v "Daemon Tools 4.12.1" /d "\"%CurrentPath%\..\..\runhidden.exe\" \"%CurrentPath%\" config.cmd" /f exit config.cmd title Daemon Tools 4.12.1 ::Uninstall information reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\dtools" /v "DisplayName" /d "Daemon Tools 4.12.1" /f reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\dtools" /v "UninstallString" /d "%ProgramFiles%\DAEMON Tools\uninst.exe" /f reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\dtools" /v "InstallLocation" /d "%ProgramFiles%\DAEMON Tools" /f reg add "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\dtools" /v "DisplayIcon" /d "%ProgramFiles%\DAEMON Tools\daemon.exe" /f ::Remove adware del /f /q "%programfiles%\daemon tools\AdVantageSetup.exe" ::Launch Daemon Tools and configure settings - requires AutoIT 3.2.11 beta autoit3 config_daemontools.au3 ::ArniWorX Daemon Tools Shell Extension awxDTools1060.exe /VERYSILENT /NORESTART exit

At last my Wireless PC card finallly arrived today. Too bad my new internet connection has only limited upload capacity. I can upload some test builds, but I'll have to wait until weekend to update all builds. So far only English Micro and Lite versions are updated. Changes in build 1.15.0.2: - fix Nero BurnRights - fix Nero crashing on adding unrecognized media files

Nero Recode depends mainly on external .ax and dll files. I don't have time to figure things out and test. I have ordered a wireless network card for my pc so hopefully next week I can upload Nero to fix some reported stuff.

Someone reported to me crashes when adding unrecognized files to an audio CD. The dll NeroVMRModule.dll is missing from Nero Lite, adding it to Common Files\Nero\Lib will prevent crash in those situations. Will be fixed for next build.

I have moved again to a new place now. Unfortunately I haven't got an internet connection there at the moment. For the next week or month I won't be able to work on Nero Lite. Please keep on posting your bug reports and solutions. If you want a Nero Recode addon you have to code it yourself, since I have no time for testing stuff now.

chris970, why don't you update to Nero 8.2.8.0? Nero 8.1.1.0 is a bit buggy

Although this script doesn't work for .Net 2.0 SP1 I was able to use it to create a new small .NET 1.1 installer including language pack in just 11.5 MB P.S. I used the following hotfixes. KB867460 KB887542 KB887545 KB887549 KB887551 KB887560 KB888999 KB891865 KB892202 KB893100 KB896000 KB896010 KB896501 KB901372 KB907407 KB923614 KB932273 KB937501 KB940737 KB942228

I tested today latest HFSLIP including all updates except KB905474 on a Dutch Windows XP SP2 cd. I do get the notice. However I cannot find dutch version of the standalone hotfix. I have extracted the path to the hotfix from the windowsupdate.log: http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdo...b1eda2dbf18.exe The difference is the WGATray.exe program. Normally you don't see it, but if your Windows is not 'genuine' you get to see some warning messages I prefer them to be in the native language

UAC should not be a problem. I think you might have VC Redist 2005 installed before by some other application, but it conflicts with Nero. Try to uninstall other instances of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 runtime and see if it works or not.
