Hi All!

I'm proud to finally present to you:
InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor 1.4.0
with full IC7 & IC8 support!

as usual here's the changelog:

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

V1.4.0 entering a new era

a - recognition and support for InstantCopy 8.0.0.251. Quite a few changes
were necessary to realize dual support for the 7.x and 8.x series, which
explains the rapid growth of the executable.

a - a size display next to the DiscDataPath in the main dialog. This displays
the size currently consumed by the DiscDataPath Directory. The value is
only refreshed when you wipe the DiscDataPath or read the Settings from the
registry. It's NOT constantly monitored!

a - 'Copy Method' option to 'One Click Solution', this replaces the
'Change ResizeMode to automatic if necessary' option. Basicly the function
is the same, but giving you more power with modes added to InstantCopy 8.
Only thing needs to be mentioned is "Preset", this uses the previously set
CopyMethod from InstantCopy not changing anything. All other methods are
just the same as in InstantCopy itself. And again if enforced, the original
state is restored when finished.

n - 'Direct' Method is not supported as Copy Method in 'One Click Solution',
because it pretty useless there.

a - (Copy) Method parameter to 'IC Batch Control'.This enables you to enforce a
certain Copy Method for each job in the batch. When finished the original
state is restored. Modes are the same as in 'One Click Solution'
(see above)

n - 'Direct' Method is not supported as Copy Method in 'IC Batch Control',
because its obsolete, except you own a DVD-Burner-Changer that is.

a - 'How to get Support' to the '?' menu. Here you get a brief description of
how to get support aswell as the small config Info, you might already
know from 'Feature Check'. To be able to help you as fast and good as
possible please always provide this info along when seeking support!

a - a Warning to 'MisterX Prediction Calculator' that it is intended for the
7.x.x.x series of InstantCopy (only when using 8.x.x.x).

Quoting MackemX (T.P.F.K.A. MisterX) :) on this:
"it's probably out of date now anyway and even more so after testing
Version 8 the black bar issue seems to be no more as it doesn't undersize
like it did previously especially with 2.35:1 movies"

a - a Warning to 'PDIControl' if the opened PDI Set doesnt contain an AUDIO_TS
folder. InstantCopy 8 again interduces the 'ability' to create Images
without it, but for compatibility reasons with StandAlone Players it should
be present.

a - context sensitivity to the controls, means if you have the help file in
your InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor Directory, and press the 'F1' key
while the focus is on a certain control, the help opens with the appropiate
topic already selected!

a - navigational button(s) to the top right corner of the main dialog, enabling
you to jump to the next/previous available settings display (suggested by
MackemX)

a - Some additional Information to the support Info, was required through
another version confusion.

a - Recommended Settings for IC8, the Recommended Settings for IC8 differ from
those for IC7, just a little but they do. Depending on the Version you use
the appropiate Settings are used.

c - the way InstantCopys Version History is shown. Makeing room for future
versions and comments to be added. Also giving the ability to better
layout the info making it easier on your eyes.

c - 'Wipe DiscData' is now locked out if no DiscDataPath is set in the registry
this shouldnt happen, but this precaution avoids any possible problems if
it does somehow.

c - a typo on the Prediction Calculator and another reference from MisterX to
MackemX which was missed the last time

c - InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editor now uses the smaller Interface by
default.

r - 'Change ResizeMode to automatic if necessary' option from
'One Click Solution'

f - a Bug in "IC Batch Control" which enabled you to update a job with details
that were invalid for batch processing

f - serious bug on InstantCopy Hidden Settings Editors startup code, which
could unintendedly overwrite the current InstantCopy Settings with
the default values--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enjoy the new Version!

Greetnx

It does not save the new settings may be a bug ?
If you save the settings and start the program again the default settings are back....am I doing something wrong?

You can download it here if you don't want to register.
I like the One click solution quite a bit. Haven't tested pdi control. Might try working on an IC8 guide tomorrow night. I hope.

This happens to me too. I have version 8.0.0.251

I open the program, click on the recomended settings, then click on SET, then exit, open it again and the settings are back at default values.

I changed the settings manualy using regedit to the ones recommended by this program, however it did not make any differnece to the end result file size.

IC8 as far as I have tested alway outputs the same size no matter what changes you make to these settings.
