Hi guys,
i would very much like to build my own installation package with my own installer where i have my logo etc.
How do i create my own installation package?
I have compiled and built the Xibo 1.7.8 but i cannot see all the parts in the package.
For example,
How do i add the watchdog to the package and create the shortcuts and also is everything installed into the App directory or is there something else i should know of?
Thanks
Best regards
The project uses Advanced Installer to create an MSI for distribution. You would need to do something similar to repackage the application.
Alternatively, the project sponsor offers white labelling services at a cost for the Windows Player, which will also ensure the changes you make keep you fully within the terms of the license.
Hi Alex,
thanks for the response 
I am kind of curious, it isn’t very important thing.
However,
is the advanced installer used with Visual Studio or separately?
Can i repack the existed package if i have the Advanced installer?
the goal is to see where things are installed and what all is in the package.
Trying to understand the system a bit.
It’s separate.
No you can’t repackage an MSI - you would need to create your own from scratch.
I can save you alot of work then. All the installer does, is drop the files you find installed in to the Program Files directory, and add two shortcuts to the All Users profile.
In addition, it sets some registry keys (all covered in the Manual/FAQ) as a convenience so you don’t have to do that manually.
Thanks Alex, very much appreciated 
Please confirm,
all the compiled files goes to Program Files\Application directory?
About the registry keys,
Is the following all i need to add?
"Thumbnail Database
Windows automatically creates thumbnails for content in the user folder and will try to do so for the Xibo local library.
In some cases this interferes with the normal operation of the player and should be disabled. This can be achieved with the following registry settings.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
“NoThumbnailCache”=dword:00000001
"DisableThumbnailCache"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
“DisableThumbnailCache”=dword:00000001
"NoThumbnailCache"=dword:00000001
Please ensure you know what you are doing and have appropriate backups in place before modifying the registry"
Please let me know if i am missing something!
many thanks in advance.
Best regards
