also m$ included double WGA check so it can be used only on genuine windows xp
plus they added windows media connect 2 .....

lol thanks alot
i knew someone was gonna come up with something like this...

Nice

Mirror here ---> www.wpiw.net/downloads/wmp11_addon.cab

updated to the official beta....

Thanx !

hmmm...I have an MCE unattend and so far (in testing), wmp11 won't install without having rollup 2 installed.

Anyone else get this?

I've tried to get a hold of rollup 2 to integrate but I have no luck.

Will test though...


***EDIT

Well, I got it to work but now Rollup 2 doesn't want to install. LMAO!

during installation at RunOnce, i got this error:

"Setup cannot find umdf.exe from C:\WINDOWS\Apps\"

I'm using nLite to integrate and VMWare as the virtual machine

please look in that folder to see if the .exe is there but after the xp setup finishes

I actually got that same reply. I only installed manually afterward only to see if I got the rollup message. I looked for the directory AFTER setup and couldn't find it...

look on the xpcd to see if the exe exist on it.
also look in dosnet.inf and txtsetup.sif for umdf.exe

This addon has worked fine for me from day one. Thanks booogy nice little addon!

i recheck everything and retested in vm. all fine.
please try to make a xp cd without other addons and then report that its not working.

the folder wasn't there. nvm, i try to use RM integrator.
I have dotnet 2.0 runonce. Is it be the prob?

u got your answer.

so i'm gonna sacrifice my .net framework 2.0 runonce and install it during svcpack. is that the only solution? is there a way to install WMP 11 aside of .net 2.0?

it is.....manually.

This is the directory structure of my untouched copy of XPCD:



Without changing the folder structure of my XPCD, I integrated the wmp11_addon.cab with RyanVM Integrator 1.2.2 and included RVMUpdatePack2.0.6.cab (+ Foxy_WGA-Notify_RemoveAddon_v1.0.cab, so no WGA interuption) with net2.0 add on.

After integration, i got this directory structure (Without "$OEM$/$$/APPS" folder???)



and that is the problem i got this error:

1)

2)

3)

4)


i know this is because there's no $OEM$/$$/APPS folder in my XPCD. but why does this happened?
All the required files for WMP11 are placed in my I386 folder instead of APPS folder?

btw, i checked my dosnet.inf and txtsetup.sif for the three .exe plus 1.reg

DOSNET.INF


TXTSETUP.SIF


EDIT:
I removed my Net 2.0 runoncex add on and it works now!

Hi there boogy, would you tell me the switches you used to create that pack?
I just found the /Q switch, but after the installation, Windows restarts.
The former REBOOT=SUPRESS and alike switches won't work anymore.
Can you give me a hint?

its simple: just unpack the addon and look at the runonce.inf. u will find the switches there.....
dont get upset i dont post them but i am lazy .......

That's allright, no problem!

Ok, since your pack is in english, I tried to create my own build with a german version.
I extracted and cabbed and everything went just fine. (I did this before I read your
answer here). Reboot, install Windows, ok, fine. Then, reboot and doubleclick the
WMP icon it says wmplayer.exe has version number 11.xxxx where 9.xxxx was
expected. Windows Mediaplayer is not installed properly and has to be reinstalled.
But it won't work then either, you can't reinstall - error message.

Ok, I'll have a close look at your pack and try to rebuild one with a german version.
I just saw some regtweaks in one of the files. Is it necessary to use them?

well the regtweaks are not really needed.....

and the error u getting cause some files werent registered properly....
u can use nlite to remove all wmp 6.4 and 9 but keep wmp compatibility and add the pack.

Ok, that helps a lot. I already thought so, but I wasn't quite sure about it.
I've rebuild a pack that is 1:1 yours in german, I'm now uploading and
testing, it took me 10+ hours reading errormessages, bug huntig and a
LOT of pills to keep cool to get this far.

PS: Man, I really do appreciate your work so much, no one but us knows
what we're putting into this. Keep it up!

thx np
i also am thinking about pils.....love german pils....

I've got bad news. It didn't work. I removed 6.4 and 9 and added
the pack via hotfix integration. You knwo what: It's just missing.
Nothing is being installed at all. No start menu entries, no program
folders, nothing at all.
Man, I just can't get it working and I'm already pretty p***ed off.

I don't mean to annoy you, but would you tell me how you created
your pack? I'm afraid I'm not able to make it on my own.

This is how far I've come: I extract the wmp11 so I have everything
in one folder. I delete everything (like in your pack) except for the
three cabs you also have. I use nLite Addon Maker (the packs I made
with the plugin creator don't work at all) and the following switches:

/quiet /nobackup /noreboot

In the addon maker I enter everything like Language Version and so on.
The I finish the cab, add it in my win CD with nLite, no errors.
Then install windows, no errors. First time, I got the error message I
quotet above, when I remove 6.4 and 9 in nLite I get nothing at all.

Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? that would be soo great!

EDIT: I just saw that your pack now looks a little different from what
it looked like earlier, is that right? Allright, I'll have a close look at it,
then I'll try to rebuild my pack based on your new one.

i built it manually.
extract that 3 files from the wmp11 installer and then built the .ini and the .inf files. added also the tweaks. and then i cabbed everything. that is all.

Ok, i think thats the problem. I did not build any of these files, because
I just don't know how to do that. Is there a possibility that I can modifiy
your files so they fit for me?

Or can I just exchange my german files with your english ones and keep
your files?

Sorry that I ask so many questions but I'm a newbie in this case.

just modify the names for the three packs needed for install. (i dont know if they have the same names in german....like in the english one).....

Modify the files names directly or the names in the ini/inf linking to there files?

The names in the SFX that i downloaded from M$ Germany have the same
filenames. So, if I got you right, I simply need to overwrite your original wmpf files
with my original wmp files and keep your ini/inf files.
I put my own .cat files in that svcpack folder, they have same name and size,
but sure is sure.

I'll try that, thanks again!

if they have same names just modify the 3 packs in my pack and then cab back and that is it

updated to beta2
also check my wmp 11 beta 2 real addon
it is in my signature

Nice job, buddy

Does this include any WGA s***?

yes this time will it check if your xp is genuine...
sorry about that but m$ got smarter and included that check for two times in wmp11 installer.
however if u try the real addon from my signature it has NO WGA checking files or routines......

Awesome, thanks a lot!

Is it possible to create WMP11 addon with no WGA (like the one from your signature) but without any tweaks, icons, etc.?

yes it is possible.....but not my purpose.....

Ok, I got that

Last thing: I was testing some addons and the WMP11 from your signature could not be integrated with nLite 1.0.1 Is it supported?

yes it is...
but i am having some problems with my ftp and i had to start uploading the right version again ....
i will finish up in 10 min.......


edit
done

So I should download http://www.ryanvm.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2319 again and this time I can integrate it with nLite?

yes

This RunOnceExe is a lot better than the direct integration addon because it can be uninstalled.

no it cant......

updated
fixed some typos and updated the tweaks. now WU/MU is happy and doesnt report kb911565 needed.....

released final....
