That's not the MSI that's the new version of Winamp. There are some differences in the skinning engine since 5.2. Advise you check with the author of the skin for an update. What happens when you accept does it crash as it says it might?!

Clue is in the warning dialog

No, if he's using the included Modern Skin, it's the MSI's fault (and I've reproduced it). I'm testing the latest build now, to make sure i've isolated the problem.
EDIT: Rebuilding both distro's now and will upload when done. MultipleProfile support has also been included.

Also I should point out the new switches....

XWMV - Windows Media Video Support
XPM - Portable Devices Support
XIPOD - iPOD Support
XCREATE - Creative Player Support (Nomad Jukebox)
XPFS - Microsoft PlayForSure Device Support
XONLINEMEDA - Online Media Services Support
XSEPPROFILES - Seperate Profile support. Each User gets their own settings. =1 enables

Ok, well I've seen some skins with two versions one for 5.13 and below and one for 5.2 upwards hence my comments. My appologies if this is incorrect.

[Alanoll]

It's all good, you were just trying to help him out.

[Alanoll]

So then by the lack of reply, i'll asume the modern skin bug is fixed...and that there are no other bugs

[Dynaletik]

Yeah Alanoll, I also had problems with my external modern skin (not the one that is included), but it really seems, as if it is Winamps fault and not a bug in the msi. The authors have to update their skins, I think.

Once again, very good work Alanoll!!!

Hello,

I've have a problem installing Winamp 5.21 with a Ini File.

I receive a 1720 MSI error:

Product: Winamp -- Error 1720.There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Custom action CopyINIFile script error -2146828235, Microsoft VBScript runtime error: File not found Line 14, Column 2,


Here is my Ini file(Winamp521.ini):

[SETUP]
Xagent=1
Xlibrary=1
Xintex=1
XModernskin=1
Xaudio=1
Xvideo=0
Xvisual=1
Xextra=1
Xregopt=1
XName=
XKey=
XQuicklaunch=1
XDesktop=0
XStartmenu=1
XINET=0
XREGAUD=1
XREGVID=0
XREGPLS=1

Here is the command line: msiexec /i Winamp521.msi INI="Winamp521.ini"

Am I doing something wrong??

Greetz,

You need to specify the full path to the ini file.

[TjobzzZ]

Thanks Alanoll for your hard work!

[Dobby]

I just did a full install (using INI) including everything except WinampAgent and it works just fine! Thanks Alanoll

One thing though, it seems hierarchically including/excluding components does not seem to work (can't remember if it worked before). For example if you specify:

XAllshort=0
XStartmenu=1

All shortcuts seem to be created anyway. If you specify explicitly:

XQuicklaunch=0
XDesktop=0
XStartmenu=1

This works as expected. It's not a big deal really just pointing it out.

Thank You. It's working now.

Dobby --> You need to log off and log on again before the agent starts.

[GiaPostie]

How can I load the modern skin by default. When I start WinAmp now it has the classic Skin.

I've changed the following in the INI File:

XModernskin=1
XSkinSetting="Winamp Modern"

Sorry I meant I didn't want the agent. it's installed in the startup folder in the start menu if you add it but it's another pointless tray app which I can do without.

Yes I see this problem too. I've tried it without quotes as well and also another skin called Avalon. Checking winamp.ini file after install shows skin=Winamp Classic.

[cyberloner]

It is working fine now

[Alanoll]

did you download the MSI within the last 12 hours?
I did a silent update when i realized that the skin setting wasn't being applied. it SHOULD work now. I'll double check the ISM anyway, but it should be working.

As for teh parent switches overriding the child ones....yeah...it's always done that. I haven't had the time to sit down and do the KMAPs to figure out the more precise system. Windows Installer system for conditions isn't all that precise anyway.

[Dobby]

Oh ok thanks. I was just testing it out for ya anyway. I'm thinking of switching my player as I'm getting bad vibes from the way Winamp is heading (See my other post)

[Ivan Andreevich]

Right on! Been using these .msi's for a while and it's nice you got around to updating to 5.21

I've downloaded and tried it again today but still the same result. After install it's winamp with a classic skin.
