PowerDVD minimal installation

[Incroyable HULK]

Hello folks,

I always get PowerDVD OEM with every new computer we buy. I integrated the software in my unattended Installation but in fact I only need to give Windows Media Player the ability to play DVD movies...

So my question is what would be the minimal installation?

I took a look at the Unattended Codec pack and saw that CLVSD.ax is copied over to SYSTEM32 and then there is this Registry setting applied:

;DVD im WMP
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Settings]
"EnableDVDUI"="yes"

but is that it? Did I miss something?

[GoeniGoeGoe]

you have to

regsvr32 /s %systemroot%\system32\CLVSD.ax

that's all....I think

im actually looking to make it so that PowerDVD only plays just that, DVD's.

I prefer to have WMP handle everything else. Is the method for this similiar?

if u have it how u want it on a working pc, just expot the filetypes via reg, everything should work..

.dvd

.mpg

.avi

it will have the programs for that filetype in the key info

i did that with a reg tweak.

i set winamp to control everything except dvds and divx xvid

ok, but would it be better to use a regtweak Limiting powerdvd OR one adding for wmp?

If you limited PowerDVD, but did not tell WMP anything, then you would probably have some files that are unassociated, so I would say use the reg tweaks to add associations to WMP
