Hello folks,

I always get PowerDVD OEM with every new computer we buy. I integrated the software in my unattended Installation but in fact I only need to give Windows Media Player the ability to play DVD movies...

So my question is what would be the minimal installation?

I took a look at the Unattended Codec pack and saw that CLVSD.ax is copied over to SYSTEM32 and then there is this Registry setting applied:
;DVD im WMP
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Player\Settings]
"EnableDVDUI"="yes"


but is that it? Did I miss something?

you have to
regsvr32 /s %systemroot%\system32\CLVSD.ax

that's all....I think

im actually looking to make it so that PowerDVD only plays just that, DVD's.
I prefer to have WMP handle everything else. Is the method for this similiar?

If you limited PowerDVD, but did not tell WMP anything, then you would probably have some files that are unassociated, so I would say use the reg tweaks to add associations to WMP
