Winamp 5.1 silent and configured

[GIL]

Preferences and no user user information dialog

Get winamp.ini

For instance, I don't use the agent, with this method it is not enabled

Configure your preferences for a installed Winamp

get winamp.ini from C:\Program Files\Winamp\

Put it in your $OEM$ folder

$OEM$\$Progs\Winamp\

or use the command line

SET INSTALLDIR=C:\INSTALL\

MOVE "%INSTALLDIR%\winamp.ini" "%Programfiles%\Winamp\"

Set it to Read-Only

start /wait attrib +R "%PROGRAMFILES%\Winamp\Winamp.ini"

later on, after installed, you'll unset the Read-Only

Silent Install

Get your Winamp instation file at winamp.com

http://www.winamp.com/player/free.php

Choose between Lite or Full

I preffer to install everything and configure what I dont want out

Install silently

Switch: /S

"%INSTALLDIR%\winamp511.exe" /S

Unset the Read-Only for winamp.ini

attrib -R "%PROGRAMFILES%\Winamp\Winamp.ini"

Close it

TASKKILL /F /IM winamp.exe

Remove the eMusic Promotion

Nice, but your topictitle is a bit wrong, the newest winamp at the moment is 5.111 (when downloading it, you will see 5.11 but after installing it you will see 5.111)

also how to register the pro version? also how to disable register winamp as the standard videoplayer?

Actually if you look at the properties of the file, you will see 5.1.11.143 as the latest version. The topic title does state the major version numbers. But I think is trivial in this case.

where do you read that? i read it on winamp self, see the attachement...

Edit: i already found it, you have watched at winamp.exe to see the version, you have right. it is 5.1.11.143

Hehe, I think the winamp makers are trying to confuse us.

Your picture does not reflect the build of the version number. This makes distinction between each version mentioned crazy for us to define the correct version number.

SolidasRock thanks

About eMusic I had edited something about it into the post when I read yours (I realise yours is 6 minutes after the edit)

othewise I wouldn't know what you meant.

With "5.1" I meant that this works with all the 5.1x instalations

I don't think they'll remove the /S switch or the name and location of winamp.ini or anything else needed, at least before version 5.2, , will they?

I wouldnt know about Pro

About being set the stantard Video Player, darn good question,

I'll see about installing Wimamp before Windows Media Player

that might help in a unnateded Windows install

If you are familiarised with the registry there might be a good way

could be a .reg with keys like HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.AVI

let me know

So keep the answers coming

Well.... i explore some problems, when disable the video, i was no longer be able to watch TV via Winamp.

anyhow, i have written an autoit (with the help of an user called MHz) and this do almost everything (except register the PRO version, it will be done with a winamp.reg), i install the video option but without register it as the standard videoplayer...

if you had opened this topic a few days ago, i was more interested in your way, now i stay by autoit and it is ready for me. if you are interested in the autoit way, let me know...

greetz and good luck on MSFN
