MC 10 Install Confusion
« on: April 23, 2004, 03:44:24 pm »

Installing 121 (Custom option):

1. Clicked on accept licence button and skipped straight through to install process, flicking briefly through the install path selection step. I thought Id just clicked twice by accident.

2. Clicked on checkbox to deactivate shortcut on desktop, as usual. Dialog skipped right through next step ('run installed program now') as per 1 above,  and disappeared.

I appear to have a successful install of 121, but I have a desktop shortcut, and it doesnt appear to allow you to set the custom options.

Bug in install, or just me?



No, not just you.
After accepting licence, the installation takes over completely.
So no choice anymore for standard or custom install, no choice what skin to use, no choice for desktop shortcut or not, no choice for creating startmenu-item or not, no choice of running installed program now or not.
I don't like it!

The express / custom page and the license agreement pages were merged.  Make sure you're choosing the right option on the first page.

Not an unimportant, but not documented, change!! Or did I miss that too?
Thanks Matt

I think this was the one:

10.0.119 (4/21/04)

1. Fixed: MC better handles OGG files with bad frames in them.
2. Changed: Some Theater View skin components shared between skins.
3. Fixed: TV display would be hidden after going to Theater View and returning.
4. Fixed: Find CD and ArtistInfo pages did not work correctly.
5. NEW: Added "Create Missing" button to Options > Tree & View > Thumbnails.
6. Changed: Snapping windows (windowed display, Winamp 2.x skins, etc.) better handle multi-monitor setups.
7. Changed: Simplified installation process (combined License and Setup Type pages).

You were probably too excited about the snapping window improvements on multi-monitor systems to care  :P
