Mine also bummed out It extracted the Z-Zip archive and then reported: Nero Burning ROM Installer The target directory not found and after that Nerovision Express Installer The target directory not found Note the SPACE extra indicating that a path is blank??? Pain in the arse really as it looks so promising!

Or maybe you could disable your "modified" VER and he does not do it??? Maybe if YOU want him to do something just cos you chose to mess with the VER command you could ask him nicely... maybe "Please" would be an idea???

Oh dear good.... RTFM!!! Or in this case the THREAD!!!

There is a MediaPlayerClassic installer already.... The Codec Packs include MPC and can be silently installed with or without the codecs!

Does this problem exist with vcBlackBox's solution??

3.13 is latest proper release.. 4.xx is beta IIRC?? So we should be supporting 3.13

DOH!! Dunno why I was worrying since Nero is one of my first installs and WMP comes later!!! Anyway, good to see you'll look into my suggestions for improvement.

Why does Changelog have reference to 1.2.2 when the download is 1.2.1 ???

Seems a great system but as always there are some suggestions (some you have probably thought of already): Will it still work properly if no NVE is installed but just Recode for example? Could steps 1-3 be automated? It seems straightforward batch work? Could the script ask questions? "Do you want to install Nero Showtime(Y/N)" and process accordingly? Finally it could ask if you have 7Zip or WinRar installed and which you wish to use to make the re-packaged Nero Install. "Remove Nero PhotoSnapViewer/ShowTime hijacked file associations and restore Windows XP defaults" - if this could be set to restore to whatever you had BEFORE Nero installation then it would not interfere with installing WMP Classic - I guess right now it puts every association back to MS's bloated WMP8/9/10 ?

Well I dont have this package but perhaps you could use Symantec Snapshot, install it and run Snapshot again to find differences (not just registry). That would then tell you what files it messes with and you can narrow down which one it changes??? Curious now as to what the program does.....

Bilou and all, I'm actually looking at this for a slightly different application (putting game installs on DVDs). I want to (without pre-installing a package like Daemontools) mount 2 ISO images, know WHICH drive letters they are and call an installer from the virtual drives. Is there such a util? In the "old" DOS days I would have used CDEmu or FakeCD (IIRC)... After install my script can install a noCD patch and unload the ISOs. ANy ideas gents?

radical idea..why not work TOGETHER???

I have the same issue (having to run NSW every time)... And I'd like my machine to Run NSW (or not need to) Share Drives C, D and E (full access) Map Drives from Other PCs as well. (and make me tea every 90 mins without using MS Task Scheduler!)

Felix Great work. Small bug-ette to report. The end result says: Nero 6.6.0.8 custom build 2 This custom build includes Nero Burning ROM as well as the support applications below. Please note that is customized version has had all of the unwanted or redundant features removed. This installation will not be visible in your add/remove program window. Supporting Applications Nero Cover Designer Nero CD-DVD Speed Nero DriveSpeed Nero InfoTool Nero Recode Nero ShowTime Language Pack Nil Plug-in's Nil But I removed Cover Designer and Showtime..... Also it says on the installer "Silient" installation. Beta testing R uz!!!

Great stuff... pity I now decided I dont need/want Recode... My Zodiac (Palm machine) wont play 25fps videos so Recode is no use....

Zilexa's method wont work with Recode etc (confirmed with Nero tech supp)... only way to do a custom installer I found was to use Symantec AI Snapshot, install Nero and NVE and then use General Clean Tool to remove all bits you DONT want. Recode needs various reg entries and DLLs I think - bah! Oh well, just Nero for me will be fine.. how do I get ShORTCUT.exe tho???

Someone solve a "nero recode only" install then????

errr YES, its in the wrong thread.. it has NOTHING to do with Registry Tweaks... so basically it is spam for the people who subscribe to this thread for information. Start a new thread if you need to.... ??

Didn't know Ahead (Nero) had a support forum... didnt see one.. just a "Support Form" but thats not the same is it!!!! I might ask them how to install Recode WITHOUT NVE since it seems a tad difficult!

ZileXa's way will address your need for just "burning package and recode (with nero digital)" as for the associations - create a registry file and remove them <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Almost works.... well I did make a small muckup as the guide didnt say to put the Ahead folder inside the Program Files folder or maybe I missed that bit!! Oh and I have to enter serials in 2 locations (one in NeroVision location for Recode) but that is sussed now. Except Recode... that doesn't work properly!!! "Nero API is required but could not be found. Please re-install Nero Recode 2 using the NeroVision Express 2 installer" Hmmmm I got my Recode from NVE3!!!! If you ignore the error then Recode seems to load fine but I hate to see error messages and I wonder if it will work 100% ? [uPDATE] Recode wont work properly, might be JUST the Nero API missing or some other files.... ****!!!! Just want Nero Burning and Recode... ALMOST there!!! Any ideas where the API goes as it IS in the Nero directory?

Can someone LMK where I can get (or email me) SHORTCUT.EXE as it doesnt seem to be in my Windows dir or easily found on the net. I'd like to set the thing up using the method ZiLeXa has mentioned!!

Can this method be used for NVE for example? Also does it stop all those damned associations to Nero Showtime etc.... All I want from Nero is the burning package and recode (with nero digital)

Does someone have a REALLY working MS AntiSpyware set of files and matching RunOnceEx.cmd text? I've tried all suggested here and extracted MSI files from the original EXE and I am beggining to wonder if we have different original EXE files cos it does NOT work silently!!! This one halts my whole unatttended DVD and I hate the bugger!!!

This topic is all very interesting (basically re-jigging an install to expand and compress but add in auto-serial and silent) but how about real CUSTOM installs... I hate having Nero Showtime and its associations install. I just want, for example, Nero Burning and Nero ReCode (no Nerovision)... A way to do that would be great..... quite why Ahead cannot give us a proper installer is beyond me... They FORCE their "added value" onto us!

Thanks dude.. Your work IS appreciated, honest!
