WinDVD 6

[AznStyl]

anybody know a silent install switch for this progz? I've try the search engine but w/ no luck. Thanks

WinDVD uses Installshield. I've used the following method with the setup.iss :

http://unattended.msfn.org/xp/applications/installshield.htm

It works fine. However i don't know how to register WinDVD. I searched the name and the serial i entered in the registry but nothing found ...

Does anybody know how to proceed ?

WinDVD_6.reg from here

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\GPI\Settings]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\GPI\Settings]

I just discovered this so not sure registry part will work in RunoncEX, however I think it will since it didn't create any file's or modify any.

[AznStyl]

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "WinDVD Platinum 6.0.6.42" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\WinDVD\Setup.exe -s -f1"%systemdrive%\install\Applications\WinDVD\Setup.iss" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 2 /D "pskill WinCinemaMgr.exe" /F

can anybody tell me why windvd 6 isn't installing? it didn't give any error.

I'm pretty sure that if you have the new .iss file then u dont need the "-f1"%systemdrive%\install\Applications\WinDVD\Setup.iss" ". Just put "-s" at the end.

I've try this code below but it still not install. Again no error or anything.

REG ADD %KEY%\015 /VE /D "WinDVD Platinum 6.0.6.42" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\Applications\WinDVD\Setup.exe -s" /f
REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 2 /D "pskill WinCinemaMgr.exe" /F

[AznStyl]

anybody got any clue why it is not silently installing? also the pskill doesn't work. I've also try REG ADD %KEY%\015 /V 2 /D "pskill.exe WinCinemaMgr.exe" /F but still it give me errors.

Unfortunately, the registry key did not work. WinDVD 6 isn't registered still. Would you happen to know how to do it? I tried Googling and searching the forums, but I've come up empty. Anyhelp would be appreciated.

Installshield wise, it seems to matter if it's installing from a CD/DVD or HD. -s alone works for me - only if it's from the HD. Since I run them all from a DVD, the *only* way I managed to get them to install is to use -s -f1"%cdrom%\install\app_name\setup.iss" (change the path accordingly...) if I don't have the f1 with full path, it won't install. I also use -f2"%SystemRoot%\log_file.log" with it as well and that doesn't seem to conflict.

If your installers aren't working, make sure to include the -f2(...) part and after install check the error code, it will tell you why it didn't install.

So has anyone figured out how to silently activate WinDVD6 ???

I use this to get rid of the registration dialog ...

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\InterVideo\Common\Registered" /v 40r /t reg_dword /d "4294967295"

But I dont know how to silently activate the product ???

[PoNi]
