the switch for vlc is /S but the problem is that i want to do a full install where i click some boxes for what i want to install. does any1 know how i should do this via a switch or should i just use autoit??

[glent]

Try the Saveinf command here
http://www.appdeploy...etail.asp?id=13
Then use the loadinf when you install

VideoLAN uses the NSIS Installer. NSIS supports /S, /D=InstallPath or /NCRC for no crc checking. Unless the author adds more switches to the NSIS Installer, which is rare, then that is it.

When I use the /S switch, the mozilla Plugin doesn't get installed. If anyone know, how i can get it installed, let me know.

Thanks

Because /S switch will install with the default options (recommended).

So, is there a way to install with FULL options?

Which components do you need from these:
start menu shortcut
desktop shortcut
Mozilla plugin
ActiveX plugin
Context Menus
File type associations
Delete preferences and cache?

Try this:

 
#cs ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

 AutoIt Version: 3.2.10.0

 VLC media player 0.8.6d

 Script Function:
	Template AutoIt script.

#ce ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

; Script Start - Add your code below here

Opt("TrayIconDebug", 1)
Opt("SendKeyDelay", 200)
; Executable file name
$EXECUTABLE = "vlc-0.8.6d-win32.exe"
; Start menu shortcut
$StartMenu = "1"
; Desktop shortcut
$Desktop = "1"
; Mozilla plugin
$Mozilla = "1"
; ActiveX plugin
$ActiveX = "1"
; Context menus
$Context = "1"
; File type associations
$FileAssoc = 1
; Delete preferences and cache
$Cache = "1"
; Installation folder
$INSTALLLOCATION = @ProgramFilesDir & "\VideoLAN\VLC"

If FileExists($INSTALLLOCATION & "\vlc.exe") Then
	MsgBox(0x40010, @ScriptName, "Please uninstall previous version of VLC media player before using this script", 4)
	Exit
EndIf

1. Download and install nsis from http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download. This will let you recompile the installation program.
2. Download and extract the VLC Windows Zip package from http://www.videolan....ad-windows.html.
3. Open the vlc.win32.nsi file with Notepad

4. The component list begins at about line 502. Component look like "Section "Component Name" SEC0#. If a '/o' is in front of the component name, remove the '/o' e.g. Section $Name_Section03 SEC03

5. Change SectionIn from 3 to 1 2 3

6. That's all..compile script.

If you don't want VLC to be associated with some file types, put a semicolon in front of the line containing that extension.
