Play Videos,Audio & Images Slide Show During Windows Setup!

[DJPro]

Problem solved, THX anyway

Instead of unpacking the files in folder C:\Windows\Temp I choose another temp folder

because there were already other mp3 files in that temp-windows folder.

It seems if there are more then one mp3 or video files in the folder where MPUI.exe and

all the other files are, mplayer will play nothing automatically.

Maybe this can be solved in one or another way?

I'll search further!

u dont need to target TEMP directory...just leave blank that field..SFX always extracts files to temp folder if any path not given!!

Is there a way to have justa a music playing with visible??

For those who want to play more that just one file in MPUI, I wanna show the method I use. Instead of launching from start.cmd MPUI.exe, I launch a script created with AutoIT, which launches mpui and open a playlist allready created. This way I have two playlist. One for when the system is installing, the other one for when I install my apps.

This (scripts) is the link where I put the exe's created, list1.exe, list2.exe, which you can decompile and modify as you want, if you have autoit. The password is cosmin. For those who don't have autoit, list1.exe requires for you to create a file playlist1.m3u (ofcourse, with the videos you want in it. It must be in the folder where mpui.exe is), and list2.exe, a playlist2.m3u. Also I put the video files in mpui folder, so mine looks like zecabra's, plus some video files, two playlists, and the exe's list1, list2

It may not be the simpliest and the easyest method, but for me it works

I cant get the sound to run automatically in dos, when in dos if i goto options and click apply the sound starts - any idea why that is ?

It works fine when i test it in windows

[#rootworm]

what do you mean 'goto options and click apply'?

my guess is you're trying to play sound before your soundcard drivers are installed. and if you didn't slipstream your audio drivers or windows doesn't have your drivers, you're out of luck.

for me the hardest part is figuring out whether or not the drivers are installed before i start the music. it was too much effort for me

[martin26uk]

Sorry i meant that mplayer opens up at the 33 minute stage, the video starts playing but no sound can be heard. Now whilst the video is playing if you select tools > options on mplayer itself and click apply - the sound starts playing. No options are changed so its just a strange one

Anyone else manage to get audio working ?

[martin26uk]

Like you said rootworm - the audio drivers wernt installed fully - i increased the sleep time from 180 to 280 seconds and it works fine now
