Anyone know how i can make it so that the unattned install makes it so that when a dvd video is placed in the drive it offers to open it in dvdshrink using the xp autorun box?

Bsplayer.inf u can alter that

bsplayer.inf

I'm assuming that the coding i need is somewhere in here:

[bsplayerAP]
HKCR,"Bspl.Play\Shell\play",,,"&Play
HKCR,"Bspl.Play\Shell\play\Command",,,"%16422%\BSPlayer\bsplayer.exe ""%L"""
HKCU,"Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlersDefaultSelection","PlayVideoFilesOnArrival",0x00000000,"BRiSsPlayBS"

 00,65,00,2c,00,30,00,00,00

heh, while i dunno how to modify this directly it pointed me towards the right reg keys.

HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\PlayVideoFilesOnArrival","BRiSsPlayBS",0x00000000,""

change it to

HKLM,"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\PlayDVDFilesOnArrival","DVDShrink",0x00000000,""

change all instances of BRiSsPlayBS to DVDShrink

EDIT: its inf's , so u need 2 have basic knowledge of inf's 2 edit it

heh, i guess thats my problem, i just used it to make make some reg keys:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\PlayDVDMovieOnArrival]
"ShrinkDVDMovieOnArrival"=""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\Handlers\ShrinkDVDMovieOnArrival]
"Action"="Shrink And Re-Author DVD"
"DefaultIcon"="\"C:\\Program Files\\DVD Shrink 2.3\\DVD Shrink 2.3.exe\",0"
"InvokeVerb"="Shrink And Re-Author DVD"
"InvokeProgID"="DVDShrink"
"Provider"="DVD Shrink"

see, but your .reg keys REQUIRE dvd shrink to be installed on C:\ mine dont..

heres the finished product of dvdshrink.inf

dvdshrink.inf

forgive my ignorance but how can i use this? i'm diving into this unattended thing with no previous experience in this area . also what is %16422%?

DVD Shrink is no more updated : it is replaced by Nero Recode (same author).

what do i get that i dont get with shrink? nero recode costs money.

I may be wrong but I think, beyond refined and improved code, nero recode also supports MPEG-4 whereas dvd shrink doesn't? I expect there are probably other advantages too. But don't quote me on this.

it supports mpeg-4 to do what? recode the dvd into mpeg-4?

I have never used recode. But i read in a review somewhere that the Mpeg-4 thing was a difference. And I guess you would be correct to encode into mpeg-4... I may be wrong as I said. I haven't used recode. I just read that in a review.

If DVD Shrink works for you and its free, as it is, why even contemplate changing.

if for example, u have the .inf copied over during install to C:\Infs u would use this code to install it silently
