Outside of that method, you should probably take a look at the Windows Media
Player 9 Deployment Pack. Available from <
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/enterprise/deploypack.aspx > it
can be used to generate a deployable MSI package. The deployment pack includes
both a set of tools and a whitepaper.
If you want to make the generated MSI from the deployment pack installable by
non-admin users, you'll also need to make the following change:
-------------------------------------
1) Update the text found in part1.wim in the root of the installation
directory as follows:
Change AdminUser to Privileged
From:
<Condition Message='[ProductName] can be installed by users with
Administrator privileges'><![CDATA[AdminUser=1]]></Condition>
So the end result should be:
<Condition Message='[ProductName] can be installed by users with
Administrator privileges'><![CDATA[Privileged=1]]></Condition>
-------------------------------------
Hope this helps,
