Solid as a rock
hi, i have 2.27F k-lite codec pack. i have use search at k-lite but i get millions hits at nlite. if i search at codecpack i get one hit and thats not usefull for me.

i install klcp with:
CODE
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\codec\klcodec227f.exe /silent /SP- /Loadinf=silent.inf

and the silent.inf is:
CODE
[Setup]
Lang=en
Dir=C:\Program Files\K-Lite Codec Pack
Group=K-Lite Codec Pack
NoIcons=0
Components= divxdec, divx, divxmpeg4, xviddec, xvid, 3ivxdec, 3ivx, wmv, mpeg2, vp3, vp6dec, vp6, dvd, msmpeg4, qtcodec, qtdirectshow, qtcpl, qtbrowserplugin, realcodec, realdirectshow, realbrowserplugin, mp3audio, wmaaudio, ac3audio, oggvorbis, aac, musepack, voxware, ape, mp3lame, oggvorbissplitter, matroska, vsfilter, divxaf, gspot, fourcc, minicalc, disg400, disffdshow

but i have errors during unattendsetup. a window will popup with: there are things replaced or removed. please put back the orginal cd and retry (this is translated from dutch)

i have found a pic of it smile.gif

so i retry it with a another way: disable the wfp during the unattend install with:
CODE
[SystemFileProtection]
 SFCQuota=0  
 SFCScan=0
 SFCDisable=ffffff9d

and that dont help. how to install without disable the sfc.

QUOTE
I would strongly advise against using this method as your system files will be vulnerable to viruses that will attempt to overwrite them, which could result in a un-bootable system.


if here is someone who install k-lite codec pack without error, without disabling the sfc, please tell me

rootfixxxer
i don't have sure of this...

and i don't use any INF file...

i ll check this when i get home.... i don't remebder what's my version numbers...

Are you sure the file protection error is caused by the codec pack?
The only components that I could imagine to conflict with windows would be the WMV and Intel codecs.

Maybe the latest beta fixes it for you.

I've k lite codec pack and i use this switch /S and there is no problem, it installs all default codes!!

thanks for the beta (i now download it an try it), it happened every time ( i try it 3 times ) when kazaa lite codec pack installing a error with that popup come up and kazaalitecodecpack is halting waiting for me i click on yes no cancel. i press yes then immediality occurs the same popup but with a another filename and klcp again halted. so i am sure it is klcp.

i first thought it was uxtheme.dll but it dont halted with that filename.

You can also try to use the Codec All in One package : Codec Pack all In One.
Silent Installation with "/s" option.

i have try to install the beta on a silent way. impossible!! i try with /s /S /silent /verysilent.

so i goes back to my own version 2.27f and delete the silent.if and now try to install with the switch /silent only

i have discoverd 2 things. i get 2 errors. one with the please put the cd back ( a screenshot is maked a few post above this ) . i think this is because the hacked uxtheme.dll. also i get the error from k-lite codec pack again and i have make a screendump of it. below this post you will see the error.

i am suprised if there are people who install klcp without errors :|

I have no problems what so ever with the K-Lite pack. The ONE time I had an error was because of the file you posted above, and that was because I forgot to kill AIM before starting the install.

WHat processes do you have running when installin the pack?
[BM]Crusher
i've never had a drama with k-lite since 2.23 when i first started using it

i'm intrigued by this INF component selection though as I hated not having an option to turn things off

one problem though - I want to get rid of media player classic, but i have been finding more and more often that a lot of movie files simply won't play in media player 9 but they work in media player classic... i get the error "Windows Media Player encountered an unknown error" but if I play the same movie with media player classic it works fine?

Ctrl+Alt+Delete = Task Manager.... go to the processes tab to see what files are running

ok, i get that error again... maybe that error which occurs to uxtheme.dll make the another error? i have include the taskmngr snapshot....
Solid as a rock
i place the k-lite to the top of cmd so it runs before messenger is installed. i get that error again. also get that "please put back the cd" error. i think i have to go back to the regtweak disable SFC.... after setup is run enable it again....

i am really curious why i am the only one with this problem....

edit: i see more and more problems with the sfc. i am a bit tired of it. so i disable the SFC and trusted my virusscanner. if i dont i go be crazy now....

i HATE the error SFC, if there occurs a error SFC again in the next install i pull my whole computer outside of my window....

And this new one, how do YOU install it ?

CODE
start /wait %systemdrive%\Install\codec\klcodec227f.exe /silent


put that in cmd and you are gone. the problems i have are all solved. what was the solution? i dont know....

because i have do many things. i have created a new disk with xpcreate because there are a new hotfix for IE and also remove the OPK and the hotfix Dx9b(<--this one is not the problem i am sure because i remove it earlier and wont help) and place the redist Dx9.c. also move the regtweaks to cleanup.cmd

i am happy it works without errors.....

you can specify your wantings with a ini file but i have googled for 3 hours and dont find ANY usefull information about this in english or dutch, there was a french site but i cant read french and wont use bablefish.

also i am wondering this works only AFTER the unattendsetup:

CODE
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\De Internet Explorer-browser starten.lnk"
DEL "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\Windows Media Player.lnk"


do someone know a solution? i want to install the quicklaunchbar in an earlier stadium but i cant find a way to do that...

Though I just noticed you fixed it, this is what I've used with no problems (note the section with the silent.inf and how it's enclosed in quotes and whatnot):

install.bat
CODE
@Echo off
title Installing K-Lite Codec Pack
color f1

echo K-Lite Codec Pack installation in progress...
klcodec227f.exe /silent /SP- /Loadinf=".\silent.inf"


silent.inf
CODE
[Setup]
Lang=en
Dir=C:\Program Files\K-Lite Codec Pack
Group=K-Lite Codec Pack
NoIcons=0
Components=divxdec,divx,divxmpeg4,xviddec,xvid,3ivxdec,3ivx,wmv,vp3,vp6dec,vp6,dvd,indeo,indeo4,inde
o32,i263,huffyuv,msmpeg4,mpeg2el,mp3audio,wmaaudio,ac3audio,ac3acm,oggvorbis,aac,musepack,voxware,ap
e,mp3lame


Without the quotes and whatnot around silent.inf, it would do a silent install, but wouldn't pull the inf file.

i dont understand .
with quotes or without quotes?

i have the same problem but i use the k-lite megapack , i put the switch /silent loadinf=".\silent.inf" but at the time to install the dialogues appers mo makes cliks

Does anybody know how to make Media player classic from K-lite codec pack associating media files types ? After the installation, they were still associated to WMP 9 ...

Thanks.

My mistake. It does register associate files for MPEG and another few formats but actually not for AVI which is still "owned" by WMP.

for the uxtheme.dll i have it in the cab uxtheme.dl_ and put it straight into the I386 folder. then if you look into your windows folder setuperr.log you will see
Error:
Setup detected that the system file named [f:\windows\system32\uxtheme.dll] is not signed properly
by Microsoft. This file could not be restored to the correct Microsoft version.
Use the SFC utility to verify the integrity of the file.

and for codec pack i always used
install k-lite codec pack on your computer using the command line switch /SAVEINF="%SYSTEMDRIVE%\install.inf" and then when you want to silent install use /VERYSILENT /SP- /LOADINF="install.inf"

and its worked for me.
Mosselman
Install the k-lite codecpack on a fresh system (vmware might be useful for that) and record the installation with a program like wininstall... It worked fine for me...

Wininstall makes a .msi install file of another installation.

I think its /qb (with progress bar) and /qn (very very silent tongue.gif) for the .msi files ( you can find the exact switches on the site)...

The useful thing about this is is that you can choose which components to install, although I DO recommend to NOT install BS-player like this because it gave me some probs afterwards when I DID do so....

i've found the direct solution to that problem. if your installing by using the revert to saved snapshot feature that vmware has, that's what's causing the problem. i got the exact same pop up, and i deleted my old virtual pc and started a new one, and no probs at all
ihaveabu
would it work if i just installed with /verysilent and no inf stuff? cuz i'll prob just install default settings. that what i normally use anyway

To register video formats at Media Player Classic:
CODE
mplayerc.exe /regvid

for more switches
CODE
mplayerc.exe /? or /h or /help


k-lite codec pack does not properly installing on vmware (or just some version)
xponard
I have the same problem on my virtual PC via VMware (4.5.1b7568 + 4.5.2b8848)

> C:\WINNT\System32\QTPlugin.ocx
> Unable to register the DLL/OCX : division by zero.
> [Cancel / Retry / Ignore]

The problem will not appear when the SGVA II Driver from the VMware Tools is installed.

Hope that will not arrive on a none-emulate PC.

This probably works fine, however what if I'm installing win on a different drive than C:\? Can i drop the Dir= part? Now let's say the unattend DVD I have is installing on D:\ ALL other on my DVD will adapt and work fine on any drive, although this file will mess up and install on C:\. Any solution?

a bit late, but next time use the variable %ProgramFiles%\klitecodecpack instead of the C:\program files\klitecodecpack
