Tomcat76 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 nLite? An old HFCLEANUP reducer?HFSLIPWU.INF will "error out" if any of those are missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 (edited) uhm ... TC i'll try to experiment on new builds again ... just couldn't report as often as i used too ... my shift in the office has been very eratic lately ... ... i'm also thinking would it be better to just install XPize rather than force slipstream it via HFANSWER.ini as this would overwrite original windows files, right? (if only i'm not so bored with how XP shows the boot screen & some other icons ) ... btw, would there be a way via HFSLIP to replace the boot screen? incidentally, i'm guessing there might some addons that are just made for nLite & does not work with HFAAO (i.e., Visual Styles Multi Pack 4 Windows XP & Folder Size ) ... thanks!EDIT: never mind that question ... i may have to bring it up in a different thread (or might start a new 1) Edited July 31, 2006 by Kiki Burgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat76 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 i'm also thinking would it be better to just install XPize rather than force slipstream it via HFANSWER.ini as this would overwrite original windows files, right?You could try that to see if it fixes some problems you're having. XPize offers the option to ignore certain files if you install it via SVCPACK, I think.incidentally, i'm guessing there might some addons that are just made for nLite & does not work with HFAAO (i.e., Visual Styles Multi Pack 4 Windows XP & Folder Size ) ... Rapidshare again... I'm not gonna wait 42 minutes to get the Visual Styles file. But I could download Folder Size and I see a problem with it: it needs something to be run during GuiRunOnce, which HFSLIP doesn't support with application addons. This probably can't be fixed.

Kiki Burgh Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 (edited) thanks TC ... perhaps i might be safe to conclude that not all addon packs would work with HFSLIP ... specially those perhaps created for nLite: http://www.nliteos.com/addons/ btw, pardon me if this kinda deviates from the topic ... now to get back to the codecs ...

Shindo_Hikaru Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Has anyone heard of or uses the Cole2k pack.http://www.cole2k.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 That pack is neat but we focus on slipstreaming here. Our pack is based on these:References:MSFN Codec Pack that I plagiarize frequently. Thanks to swgreed and Yzowl!CoRoNe's DirectShow Filter Pack which I plagiarize almost as frequently. Thanks CoRoNe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 hi Tain! any comment on my erlier post about the GSPot test results? thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 Hi Kiki Thanks for the thorough reporting. Sorry for the delay; I was hoping that TC would find a good lead.I am working a lot for the next week or so and I can't do codec testing while I am at work...but will be able investigate your results further after that.

Kiki Burgh Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 no rush sir ... actually showed last week that you'd be out for the week ... no rush ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted August 2, 2006 Author Share Posted August 2, 2006 I'm not really "out of the office," per se. It is just that I prefer to work on stuff like that when I know that I have a contiguous block of time in which I can sit down and work through whatever issues are sure to arise.My peculiar train of thought works more efficiently that way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 @Kiki: Just for S&G, would you mind installing the MSFN Codec Pack? It is mostly the same as this pack but uses an INF installer. I'd be interested if intalling the codecs in that manner gives you different results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 thanks Tain ... lett me try that ... all i'll do is drop this in HFSVCPACK ... i'll report back in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tain Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 Actually I'd like you to try installing that pack with your current installation to see if it fixes things.But a fresh install will be interesting as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 ah ok ... i'll try that too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiki Burgh Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 hi Tain!just a quick update ... i actually tried to just double-click codecs2.8 & it tried to over-write some files that were newer ... tried also in new build & files play great ... although please know that i haven't had the chance yet to fully test using GSpot ... so i would not want to jump to conclusions again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
