I built her computer and shipped it to her, so I have good knowledge of her system. It runs XP Pro (using NTFS file system for "bulletproofness").
I've burned a number of movies that use 2 and 3 CD's that use the auto run (".bsi files) that have worked perfectly for friends and relatives that are computer literate (read that - installed a DivX bundle). But the elderly aunt (age 72) I'm concerned about knows where the OFF/ON switch is and that's about it. I've sent her short family videos (not compressed) that autorun just fine for her; but for longer movies I need to compress using DivX. Hence the need to figure out a way to have BPlay.exe utilize an unregistered DivX codec somehow - if that's possible at all.
If it is possible, I could see where BPlay.exe would go to the "Head of the Video Viewer's" class by a huge margin. It's already a great viewer!!!
