Sly006 Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 The whole idea about *.xxx to *.xx_ is that they are compressed.Take a look at the makecab command. I dont know does it work or even help anything but I do have a feeling that if one just renames the file to *.xx_ it wont be compressed.Compression gives more free space, im runnin low allready in my UACD,every byte counts, he he. On the other hand, maybe them files are still compressed after one extract them, then everyone on can just disregard this silly post. Im going to try to get wmp10 in the unattended cd later today thought, maybe I'll post back if I find out something usefull.Yes, you are suppose to use the makecab utility like Lolly says, and I'm lookin at 132 files here after extracting them from WinRAR. Was anyone successful in intergrating WMP 10 this way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToBe Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 you are suppose to use the makecab utility like Lolly says, and I'm lookin at 132 files hereJust drop all of them into jcarle's Utilities Compression Bin, and you'll get the files compressed in notime.. Works like a charm.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 If you want to integrate with xp ,Do like this ,this is my method ,and it works great for me .here we go.First extract all your files to one folder and rename all the files and copy and paste in i386 directory.replace all existing files now if the file is like this wmplayer.exe now rename this file to "wmplayer.ex_"like this to every file xxx.xxx to xxx.xx_ ,thats it .it works for me .do this after SP2 slipstreamed.If you want full xp and if you dont want to remove any components ,use this or you can use runonce method.OK, that's a bit revolutionary (I didn't think of it till now). Has anybody else succeeded with this too? If so, I'll give it a shot.One problem is that what was 12 MB installer now occupies much more space when de-compressed from the original IEXPRESS SFX archive (35 MB). Also, if we're just going to over-write files in I386, what about the old WMP9 INF files contained there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, if we're just going to over-write files in I386, what about the old WMP9 INF files contained there?Well I extracted everything, then used jcarle''s utility and it compressed every file as if you did it the makecab way.I placed all of it in the i386 folder. Going to test this tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucketbuster Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 I made a quick comparison of which WMP10 files are in the I386 folder and which aren't.Maybe someone finds it useful for integrating WMP10 into the Unattended CD (you know: by replacing WMP9 with WMP10).Here the list; -> means that the file is cabbed. l3codecp.acm not in I386 -> l3codeca.ac_ is in I386wmplayer.adm is in I386 -> codecs10.cat not in I386DRM10.cat not in I386MPCD10.cat not in I386MPPRE10.cat not in I386MPSTUB10.cat not in I386WMDM10.cat not in I386WMFSDK10.cat not in I386WMP10.cat not in I386WMSET10.cat not in I386WPD10.cat not in I386wmp10.chm not in I386wmperr10.chm not in I386asferror.dll is in I386 -> audiodev.dll not in I386blackbox.dll is in I386 -> CEWMDM.dll is in I386 -> custsat.dll is in I386 -> DRMClien.dll not in I386DrmStor.dll is in I386 -> drmv2clt.dll is in I386 -> LAPRXY.DLL is in I386 -> mpvis.DLL is in I386 -> msnetobj.dll is in I386 -> msoobci.dll not in I386MsPMSNSv.dll is in I386 -> MsPMSP.dll is in I386 -> msscp.dll is in I386 -> MSWMDM.dll is in I386 -> qasf.dll is in I386 -> WdfApi.dll not in I386WMADMOD.DLL is in I386 -> WMADMOE.DLL is in I386 -> WMASF.DLL is in I386 -> WMDMLOG.dll is in I386 -> WMDMPS.dll is in I386 -> wmdrmdev.dll not in I386wmdrmnet.dll not in I386wmerror.dll is in I386 -> wmidx.dll is in I386 -> WMNetMgr.dll is in I386 -> wmp.dll is in I386 -> wmpasf.dll is in I386 -> wmpband.dll is in I386 -> wmpcd.dll is in I386 -> wmpcore.dll is in I386 -> wmpdxm.dll is in I386 -> WMPEncEn.dll not in I386wmploc.DLL is in I386 -> wmpshell.dll is in I386 -> wmpsrcwp.dll not in I386wmpui.dll is in I386 -> WMSDMOD.DLL is in I386 ->WMSDMOE2.DLL is in I386 ->WMSPDMOD.DLL is in I386 ->WMSPDMOE.DLL is in I386 ->WMVADVD.DLL not in I386WMVADVE.DLL not in I386WMVCORE.DLL is in I386 ->WMVDMOD.DLL is in I386 ->WMVDMOE2.DLL is in I386 ->wpd_ci.dll not in I386wpdconns.dll not in I386wpdmtp.dll not in I386wpdmtpdr.dll not in I386wpdmtpus.dll not in I386WPDSp.dll not in I386wpdtrace.dll not in I386drmupgds.exe not in I386logagent.exe is in I386 ->migrate.exe is in I386 ->setup_wm.exe is in I386 ->unregmp2.exe is in I386 ->uWDF.exe not in I386 WdfMgr.exe not in I386wmlaunch.exe not in I386wmpenc.exe not in I386wmplayer.exe is in I386 ->wmsetsdk.exe not in I386codecs10.inf not in I386DRM10.inf not in I386MPCD10.inf not in I386MPPRE10.inf not in I386MPSTUB10.inf not in I386mymusic.inf is in I386 ->skins.inf is in I386 ->skinsmui.inf not in I386 WMDM10.inf not in I386WMFSDK10.inf not in I386WMP10.inf not in I386WMSET10.inf not in I386wmsetsdk.inf not in I386 WPD10.inf not in I386wpdmtp.inf not in I386wmp.ocx is in I386 ->msnlogo.png not in I386msnsmall.png not in I386wpdusb.sys not in I386eula.txt is in I386 ->9SeriesD.wmz not in I386Compact.wmz is in I386 ->QuickSi.wmz not in I386Revert.wmz is in I386 ->Plylst1.wpl is in I386 -> Plylst10.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst11.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst12.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst13.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst14.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst15.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst2.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst3.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst4.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst5.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst6.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst7.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst8.wpl is in I386 ->Plylst9.wpl is in I386 ->syncpl01.wpl not in I386syncpl02.wpl not in I386syncpl03.wpl not in I386syncpl04.wpl not in I386syncpl05.wpl not in I386syncpl06.wpl not in I386syncpl07.wpl not in I386syncpl08.wpl not in I386syncpl09.wpl not in I386syncpl10.wpl not in I386syncpl11.wpl not in I386syncpl12.wpl not in I386control.xml not in I386EDIT:I used an unmodified XP-CD with SP2 slipstreamed.

bucketbuster Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 I also found out that the mp3 codecs: l3codecp.acm and l3codeca.acm co-exist after I had installed WMP10 in a working XP.So they are both located in the system32 folder.EDIT:WMP10 removed the lameACM mp3codec (that I had as default rip-codec) and replaced it with his mp3codec.LameACM is still installed, but no longer working in WMP.

CrimsonKain Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 Just wanted to add some confirmation. I tried a virtual install with this in my RunOnceEx.cmd:REG ADD %KEY%\001 /VE /D "Windows Media Player 10" /fREG ADD %KEY%\001 /V 1 /D "%systemdrive%\install\WMP\mp10setup.exe /Q:A /C:\"setup_wm.exe /DisallowSystemRestore /Q /R:N\"" /fIt worked just fine.

evilvoice Posted September 4, 2004 Share Posted September 4, 2004 is it possible to do this if my WMP 9 is already removed with nLite?no, its not possible. why is it not possible? I ask because Im also interested in adding wmp10 slipped instead of through svcpack.inf, but would need to know why it cant be done...also, the easiest thing for slipping wmp10 would be to remove wmp9 with nlite, then you should be able to use mstest's post or do one of your own.
