[RELEASE] Boooggy's WMP 11 direct integration solution

Broly10000 · Post by **Broly10000** » Mon May 05, 2008 6:08 pm

I used WMP11 integrator V. .991 downloaded last night and hash verified. Used RVM integrator 1.5.3, hash Verified too. Updatepack and addos hashes verified before the integration. Everything went perfeclty when omiting that update. I'm goping to try it again tonight by downloading that update again, and I'll be replaying back with the results. In fact, I'm using last night integration for replaying back watching movies and listening to music right now.

SP3 integrationw as done by creating a shortcut and adding the -s switch and the path of the XPCD extraction.

1) Started from a clean XP Corp Gold
2) Slipstreamed SP3 from the command line with the /integrate command
3) Used WMP11 Integrator in integrate WMP11 - NO hotfixes as requested

Looking for a way to post requested files

Is there any difference between using /integrate vs [service pack] -s:[source]?

An FC /b on all the files says that they are the same.

that fix, 946665 is broken from microsoft. please redownload and please try first running it to see if its working. then integrate.
the err u are getting is cause of that hotfix.

Thats right, tried it as you said it and it worked. So now i have SP3 slipstreamed, WMP11 with all the updates and IE7 with all the updates. And after running the latest .Net silent installer posted here, the only thing left in WU is root certificates and silverlight.

Broly10000 could u post procedure how u slipstreamed WMP11 with all the updates?

Do boogy site contains all updates of wmp 11 in sp3?

from which source of information u achieved stability of wmp11 in sp3?

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Tue May 06, 2008 11:11 am

like i said before.....my site contains all fixes that microsoft issued for wmp11. and all links are directly from microsoft.

as for sp3
i did like this:
used nlite
slisptreamed updatepack, some addons, ie7 and wmp11 plus wmp fixes.
then removed some things
then made the unattended and used all patches from patched files page from nlite.
then created iso and installed.

nonno fabio · Post by **nonno fabio** » Tue May 06, 2008 2:26 pm

try to add these lines in the Slipstreamer equivalent of entries.ini

Code: Select all

[EditFile]
I386\WBEMOC.INF,SourceDisksNames,WBEMOC_SDN
I386\WBEMOC.INF,SourceDisksFiles,WBEMOC_SDF

[ExpandCab]
I386\napprov.mo_,\I386
I386\napschem.mo_,\I386

[WBEMOC_SDN]
1="Windows XP SP3 CD/DVD-ROM","WIN51",,"i386"

[WBEMOC_SDF]
napclientprov.mof=1
napclientschema.mof=1

This should solve the problems caused by SP3 (when you must add files from .inf, XP now uses wbemoc.inf in place of sysoc.inf, but wbemoc is not executed during setup).

It is Onepiece stuff, not mine, so please don't ask me about

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Tue May 06, 2008 2:54 pm

thx nono but i already know that ....and new slipstreamer will edit that inf automatically.
but we made big modifications and we still testing and fixing the errors appeared.

I used tweked inetegration, selected all the updates in booggy's page, changed the icon to the vista icon, and thats it, nothing else selected. It worked for me with the SFC enabled. I dont use hacked files on my install, other than the theme file and i change that after the installation to add a couple of thing to make XP looks like vista, look for vistamizer. If you need more details of the rest, look at my 2 previews posts or PM me.

thank you.

I am happy to say that my initial test worked. I used the Addon from here first and then WMP11 Integrator. And it looks good - going to do some more tests and will report back.

UPDATE : Everything is working just fine now. Thank you for all your help.

Thank you

What I used was a clean Windows XP x86 SP0 VLK (corp) ENU source, with SP3 slipstreamed the official Microsoft way (e.g. applying SP3 with the /integrate switch). nLite and/or RVMIntegrator were not even used at this point, and no custom winnt.sif or anything else for that matter either. All I used was the original VLK CDROM and the SP3 x86 RTM build 5512 that was officially re-released yesterday.

After that I tried it again, this time having nLite integrate the earlier posted NR_WBEM_Fix_AddOn.7z fix and SFC set to disabled. This gave the same "Unhandled Exception" error as with the earlier used clean XP/SP3 source. BTW, this is the first time I have an issue with WMP11 Slipstreamer.

I downloaded the SP3 updater yesterday from Microsoft's website. Used nLite to slipstream SP3 into a Dell OEM WindowsXP CD with SP2. I closed nLite after SP3 was integrated (I did no other modifications) and launched the WMP11SlipStreamer program. I know it's not recommended to use OEM discs with nLite but I only used it to slipstream SP3.

If I do it with out the hotfixes it works perfectly.

Okay, thank you for mentioning. I will try again without KB946665. However, it might be a good idea to mention this on Boooggy's site since nothing is mentioned there, despite KB946665 is listed.

n7Epsilon · Post by **n7Epsilon** » Thu May 08, 2008 4:51 pm

Redownload it and include it. It IS needed. The problem is that sometimes MS server sends 0s instead of the real data.

solar · Post by **solar** » Fri May 09, 2008 2:29 pm

First of all I am not 100% sure this error is caused by your addon but i only get this error when i use a install with wmp11 slipstreamed.

I get the following error in qfecheck:

KB947864: This hotfix should be reinstalled.

The following files are incorrect for this hotfix:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\BROWSEUI.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHLWAPI.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHDOCVW.DLL

The following files are not valid in the system catalog:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WININET.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\URLMON.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DXTRANS.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DXTMSFT.DLL

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSTIME.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSRATING.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\MSHTMLED.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\JSPROXY.DLL

I downloaded the hotfix manually and re-installed it:
now i only get the following errors:
KB947864: This hotfix should be reinstalled.

The following files are incorrect for this hotfix:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\BROWSEUI.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHLWAPI.DLL
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SHDOCVW.DLL

So the Catalog errors are gone.
When I do an install without the wmp11 slipstream i don`t get this error so maybe anybody here knows what i should do to fix these errors?

Thanks!

boooggy · Post by **boooggy** » Fri May 09, 2008 5:01 pm

all this files u listed in your post are internet explorer files. and they dont have anything to do with wmp 11 or wmp 11 slipstreamer.

new version!
change log for 1.2:
1. Complete rewrite of ini file editor, massive file editing speed increase (SimpleIniEditor renamed to IniParser)
2. Complete rewrite of cabinet.dll interface, problems with COMODO Defense+ fixed, now x64 compatible (can be compiled and work with 64-bit cabinet.dll)
3. Complete separation of Backend from user interface, switch to events. Cross-thread dialogs now open with the main window as its owner correctly.
4. Cleaned up Backend error handling.
5. Removal of embedded uxtheme.dll and msobmain.dll hotfixes. Slipstreamer will break unattended and display a warning if it finds that uxtheme or msobmain need updating, integrate those fixes before running the slipstreamer to avoid this.
6. Updated to support Windows XP Service Pack 3 (automatically applies wbem fix if required)
7. Fixed issues on x64 WMP11
8. Fixed issue presented here

rootworm · Post by **rootworm** » Fri May 16, 2008 2:44 am

Been using this for over a year now, but I'm still having the same trouble I've had from the beginning: This slipstreamer borks DRM somehow.

The problem is with media sharing: WMPNetworkSvc Event ID 14344: WMCreateDeviceRegistration() encountered error '0xc00d2711'. The Windows Media DRM components on your computer might be corrupted.

Have had this problem without fail on every WMP11 slipstreamed disc since mid 2007. My usual fix is WMP reinstallation + luck, but I tried to fix without reinstalling this time.

http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/Ind ... ndivit.asp doesn't work because it reports DRM error. So I tracked down the fix it downloads "IndivIt211.wma" and when I run that it says "Windows Media Player is not installed properly. Reinstall the Player."

Thanks, that's from MCE2005 Rollup2, which I didn't realize had the WMP updates (duh) and had integrated w/ nLite before the WMP11 slipstream. Will try again another way.

What do you mean... I use the slipstreamer. WMP works fine and everything appears normal until I enable media sharing. At which time media sharing doesn't work but every other aspect of WMP is fine.

You've never had trouble using WMP with a Windows Media Center Extender?

no errors but a mini bug

in svcpack.inf where some.exe -a (note the silent switch) will get "some.exe -a" ranked in quotes.

Have you tried the same setup recently but without using WMP11 Slipstreamer? In other words, by installing WMP11 manually after XP is installed?

n7Epsilon · Post by **n7Epsilon** » Sun May 18, 2008 10:46 am

This not a bug. This is the correct (proper) formatting for the INF according to Microsoft INF rules. Everyone should use quotes properly. When IniParser saves an INI. It normalizes the INF to use proper INF formatting rules. (a little like TidyHTML)

If the silent installer doesn't work, then it could be a bug that MS doesn't follow their own rules and I will try to make an exception to treat this section differently when saving, but if it works, then I am correct and I will not remove this behavior (in that case, people will need to learn to do things the right way).

@rootworm: I do not have Windows Media Center extender or MCE2005 to test this. I am caught up in exams at the moment, when I'm done with them, maybe I'll PM you so we can test this a little better.

I can confirm that putting the line in quotes does work. I have the following:

Code: Select all

[SetupHotfixesToRun]
"SUNJAVA.EXE -ai"
SPTD.EXE add /q

and my Java installer installed successfully. I do have to ask though if the line for the second installer (SPTD) should be quoted too?

I would venture an educated guess to say you answered your own question (yes).

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sun May 18, 2008 4:45 pm

this isn't causing errors but its a bit unexpected!

this was triggered only when " -*" switch was used, which is mostly common with some of RogueSpear's new installers!

also, if i had to integrate "the same thing" for some reason after using the slipstreamer, I would get 2 versions of the same line (quoted and unquoted)

these are the only things to consider when warping the issue around ...

great work & congrats

n7Epsilon · Post by **n7Epsilon** » Sun May 18, 2008 5:29 pm

No actually, I spent months on IniParser so that that would never happen, and if it does then it is a bug and I must fix it. Try integrating wmp11 over and over on the same source and see if you get double entries anywhere.

ENU_user · Post by **ENU_user** » Sun May 18, 2008 6:49 pm

this is for my bad explaining!

i was referring to integrator or nlite, when it so happens that someone can over integrate the same file more then once..

& as in this case:
once before slipstreamer is used and once after ..

where i think integrator or nlite wont recognize "that" and then add the "same" unquoted...

Yes. It's fine if I install manually with no slipstream. Also of note is DRM folder is empty with WMP11 slipstream. It shouldn't be empty. (I don't think it was empty on SP2 disks, but I'm not certain)

edit - I just built an MSI of WMP11 + all updates. It installs fine and media sharing is working so I guess I'll stick with the MSI for now.

good app I used it on my recent sp3 test cd. Seems to have all worked but the hotfixes which I integrated after it using nlite do not show as installed hotfixes does anyone know if thats how its supposed to be?

Also as some feedback I got confused by the instructions for nlite, they say to add the installer inside nlite which I did and caused an error it meant the wmp11 exe file. Not the wmp11 slipstreamer.

Hotfixes for WMP11 or just in general - for SP3??? I would assume you mean for WMP11, however, you should have the WMP11 Slipstreamer integrating both WMP11 and all of it's current hotfixes listed on the WMP11 Slipstreamer home page, so there wouldn't be any need to integrate them separately using nLite.

Someone else may have to answer this as I use the WMP11 Slipstreamer as a separate application.

What I do know is that you have to have the WMP11 Slipstreamer installed, but I would think that you had done that. That's why I alleviate all confusion on my part and just use the WMP11 Slipstreamer separately, but I've just been too lazy to learn how to use it properly through nLite.

@enu_user: Then nLite and/or integrator need to get better then and start coding more robust ini parsers then. If you are afraid of this then use wmp11slip at the end.

I think the quotes issue is more of a problem only in RunPreSetupCommands, RunPostSetupCommands and SetupHotfixesToRun where everybody seems to be doing it wrong, but for txtsetup.sif, dosnet.inf ... etc. this will not be a problem because file list sections don't use quotes by definition (Because no dangerous characters like = / \ * , ... etc.) so it will never cause the problems you described.

Also, no one should go about integrating the same things over and over (at least with the current integrator status) since I don't think any one is equipped to handle this well.

- For WMP11 hotfixes, we do not add registry entries to show Windows that the hotfixes have been installed because (Thankfully) Windows Update is smart enough to check the actual file version, so if no wmp fixes show on windows update, the fixes were integrated correctly.

boooggy tests this very well before each release (checking file versions and hotfix integration).

Yeah, amazingly MU (in contrast to WU) appears to know about the hotfixes too. I would assume that MU is still ignorant when it comes to Office 2003 hotfix integrations, as it used to be, whereas WU was smart with them.

I wonder why MU would recognize WMP11's hotfixes but not Office 2003's?

Can anyone else test WMP11 media sharing with this slipstreamer?

If you can please start WMP11, click the Library button and select Media Sharing and check "Share my media". On the next screen that pops up just hit OK.

After that start Event Viewer and check the System tab for WMPNetworkSvc events.

You don't need to have a media device on the network to test it, if everything is working you will have event 14206.

(Note that SSDP Discovery Service cannot be disabled)

Yes, this feature works. I performed exactly the steps you laid out. (Well, that is after I re-enabled SSDP.)

As a note to the above working, my install is setup like this:

1. Start out with an original SP2 slipstreamed source.
2. Integrate SP3 into source.
3. Integrate WMP11 into source with all updates WMP updates.
4. This point is where all future updates start (have seperate copy of source at this point.)
5. Copy source from point 4 and add winnt.sif, OEM folders, and custom svcpack.inf installers
6. Using Ryan's Integrator, redxii's post SP3 update pack is used plus a bunch of addons, removals, etc.
7. Typically test in Virtual PC to verify install.

At last test, everything has gone as planned and the media sharing does appear to be starting on the latest build I have done.
