Hi All!

Attachment removed, 'cause its obsolete. Use InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor 1.3.4 instead!

UPDATED - BUG FIX RELEASED

Here we go again! 1.3.3. is here!

Change Log:

History:

a - added
f - fixed
r - removed
c - changed
n - note

V1.3.3 Never trust WMI...

f - '-2147217404 Automation error' in 'One Click Solution'. As it seems WMI on
    some configurations returns a non compilant object. So the check code for
    WMI of 1.3.2 was fooled into thinking everythings ok, causing the error
    when accessing WMI (pointed out by nyplayer).


V1.3.2 Lazy as hell...

a - 'One Click Solution" to Tools, this requires at least DVDDecrypter 3.1.5.0
    and at least InstantCopy 7.0.3.140 to be installed. This nifty little
    Feature supplies you with a virtual DeCSS for InstantCopy. Basicly its
    just a BatchOperator wich first calls DVDDecrypter to get the DVD to your
    harddisk and after DVDDecrypter has finished passes the newly ripped Files
    directly into InstantCopy, where you can proceed as usual. 

n - One Click Solution lists only DVD-Roms only on WinXP & Win2K on all other
    Windows versions all CD/DVD-Roms are listed in the Sourceselection, this is
    because there is no reliable way to detect DVDRoms under all versions of
    windows without involving ASPI, wich thanks to MicroSoft cant be directly
    called from Visual Basic! So this was the most practical solution without
    the need for any external wrappers/dependencies. And hey, i think youre
    clever enough to pick the right drive all by yourself, arent you ? :)
    
a - option to burn with DVDDecrypter after conversion to One Click Solution
    (this is only useful if you are sure that the resulting pdi set satisfies
     your expectations and will have a size equal or less 4.37GB. Otherwise
     leave it turned off!)

n - Burning with DVD Decrypter might not be very reliable, cause automation for
    burning is not officialy supported. But worst thing that can happen is that
    either the burning doesnt start or DVD Decrypter does not exit when
    finished. So no need to worry! Give it a shot! Feedback highly welcome!

n - For those who care: NO! There are no SendKeys Commands used in the
    automation Process! It's real windows messaging!
    
a - After Batch Operations to IC Batch Control, this enables you to ShutDown
    Windows after the Batch is completed (Greetz RB). There are two shutdown
    options, the normal and the forced, if you select force any open
    application is forced to exit, though this could result in lost of unsaved
    data. so be careful with this option
    
a - an option to start InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor displaying the newest
    available settings first. E.g. if you are using InstantCopy 7.0.3.140, the
    settings that were added for this version will be shown at startup

a - Wipe DiscData to the 'IC Settings' menu. This is useful if you reencode a
    DVD with changed settings that you had already done before. It ensures all
    analasys is redone in InstantCopy. Use this feature with caution all saved
    data in the DiscDataPath is wiped, including the 'F6' saved settings.

a - Tips & Tricks System to provide you with some quick hints, this is optional
    and can be turned on/off either in the Tips and Tricks window or in the
    options. Tips & Tricks are also accessable from the '?' menu
    
a - Versionverification for DVDDecrypter to precisely enable/disable supported
    functions in InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor
    
a - History Viewer for InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editors History, its
    available from the '?' menu, but only if the History.txt File is in the
    same directory as InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor. This was basicly
    added to have a correctly formated view of the History.txt at hand.

a - Drive Info Retrival to One Click Solution (Requires Windows Management
    Instrumentation, included in WinME, Win2K & WinXP, can be installed on
    other Windows as well, to be Installed! Feature disables itself when WMI
    is not present on the Machine!)
    
a - a very small SystemInfo to About, just toyed around. Had the Infos anyway.

c - Labeling of current InstantCopy Version from (Your Version is : x.x.x.xxx)
    to (Your IC is : x.x.x.xxx) to prevent misunderstanding with the context of
    the current Settings displayed before it

f - IC Batch Control now changes to automatic resize properly when you are
    using custom IC Profiles. This didnt work before. (reported by RB)
    
f - the Splashscreen preventend access to any MessageBox that could come up
    on program start
Grab it while it's hot :D

Enjoy the new release!
