Make a custom bsplayer install with NSIS (v2.0b4)
 

Ok awhile ago I asked if anyone could help me with making a custom install for bsplayer (to include with a full size movie on a cd). I got no helpful replies. Since then I've figured it out and am posting the setup script here in case anyone else ever has the same problem needing a solution. This installer looks for previously installed versions of BSPlayer (by looking to see if a key in the registry exists), automatically registers the *.avi/*.mpg/*.mpeg extentions, when uninstalled restores them, and adds preset options for the player to the registry (eg. No border/OSD Font/etc.). It includes only four files (to make it as light as possible), but you can add however many you wish:

- bsrendv.dll
- bplay.exe
- skins\pancake.bsz
- skins\MacOS X Aqua_small.bsz

Hope this helps somebody!

;I renamed the MacOS X Aqua_small.bsz skin to WinDVDplus2.bsz so it would load as the default skin when BSPlayer is started. You can also do this by adding a registry string to the registry.

Wow that seems useful. But it doesn't auto-install codecs, right? I don't know how this stuff works so...

I only run movies on my computer anyway. :)

Nope, it doesn't auto install anything :)
All it is is a lean mean installer for BSPlayer! ...and when you uninstall it, it unregisters BSPlayer and restores your previous File Type settings (extentions) in the registry. :wink:

All this is done through BSPlayer:

1. Firstly, it writes 2 entries to the registry which tells it to associate extentions (.avi/.mpg) and to register them on player startup:
- WriteRegStr HKCU "Software\BST\bsplayer" "exts" ".AVI;.MPG"
- WriteRegDWORD HKCU "Software\BST\bsplayer" "RegE" "1"
Then after installation is finished it autostarts the player which registers the file extentions.

2. When uninstalled it first checks to see if BSPlayer is running, if it is, it closes it. Then it executes it with the -UNIS parameter:
- ExecWait '"$INSTDIR\bplay.exe" -UNIS'
which restores the file associations back to what they were.
