The Premium  Edition comes with a ready to go installation manager. It allows installing the files from CD or download link to the hard disk. It also offers a network installation for Client PC's. The installer files can be found on the folder \Multimedia Protector Premium\2.1\installer .

 

The installation manager includes the following features:

 

•Copies all files to a specified directory
•Adds the necessary user rights to the specified directory
•Copies the player, database mmf file and the license file to the specified directory, including an icon file
•Adds a program manager group and an entry within the program manager group to start the Multimedia Player
•Define a different start application, e.g. a menu program
•Copy additional files, e.g. files needed by a menu program
•Display a readme file at the end of the installation
•Option to install the files on a USB-Stick instead of the hard disk
•Adds uninstall information
•Installation dialogs are available in multiple languages

You can change the icon on the desktop and in the program manager group with an own bespoke icon.

 

The installer consists of 2 files:

 

•setup.exe - (installer file for single user installation) or setup-network.exe (for network installation)
•setup.ini - (configuration file for installer)

 

Copy these 2 files from the main installation folder ..\Multimedia Protector Premium\2.1\installer to a new folder, eg. projectname-install

 

•Save the project with the option for CD/USB and not as a ZIP file
•Copy the files from the deploy folder to the new projectname-install folder
•Then modify the setup.ini file with any editor. The name of the installer can be renamed, e.g. to setup-abc.exe. The name of the ini file must be setup.ini.

If you want to start the installer directly after a CD is inserted, modify the file autorun.inf.

[autorun]

icon=flash-demo.exe

open=setup.exe

Name=Multimedia Protector - Flash Demo

 

 

This feature is available only in the Multimedia Protector Premium Edition.
