In Reply to: RE: cPlay - the open source high-end audio player using ASIO posted by cics on May 05, 2008 at 12:31:58
I want to offer the tweak in addition to the Steppe's tweaks.
My Tweak for COMPLETE/FINISHED system in which nothing should change. The idea is to make the fullest possible delete all that is not required for audio playback.
The size of the folder Windows became equal 58.3 MB. The sound is detailed and smooth. The mode Start cMP is used only. I don't use the mouse and the keyboards. I don't use any usb devices. I use english and russian fonts.
I shall explain that I remove files and folders from the system drive of cMP2 using another operating system from the external hard drive. Thus you can always get access to the file system of the cMP2.It is necessary to remove following files and folders.
From the directory C and subfolders:

From the folder Fonts It is necessary to remove all files of that are specified on a screenshot (instead of Russian fonts with letter "r" probably it is necessary to leave yours):Launch the program Autoruns and delete records in the registry for missing files ("Files not found").
Now the system folder Windows is looked so:

Serge! It's great! I couldn't figure out how and what nls files to remove. I have now only explorer.exe in windows root. I wish only that you post the procedure in a more detailed way. I know this is my sin, also. In System-drivers I have only mouse.drv. Will post my tweaks by weekend. Please, compare them with your own and let's think how to remove crypt*.dll files and security files.
Serge.
Hi Serge.
1. "I wish only that you post the procedure in a more detailed way." - I do not know what else particulars are necessary. All that I wrote it is possible to repeat safely in system similar to mine, that is with the same hard configuration and OS Russian WinXP SP2 Pro. (in OS with other language it is necessary to define correctly in practical way the files *.nls and the files from folder Fonts which need to be removed and which to leave). Eeasier to be guided by a necessary minimum of files and folders left in my OS (see my message http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/pcaudio/messages/9/97075.html) because earlier I removed still files which other users could leave in the system (these files were not in lists of tweaks and I removed them at own discretion).
2. The differences between my and your final tweaks will be defined by that I use cMP as shell and you use explorer in this kind. And still I do not use peripheral devices and I use LAN.
The files crypt32.dll, cryptui.dll, secdrv.sys, security.dll are removed w/o problems in my setup.
Serge.

I think I will take another run @ your 'My Tweak' stuff but only after Steppe publishes his new stuff so that they will truly be the last tweak. Appreciate your efforts.
Here are screenshots:
The only test program Everest which can be launched if needed is left. Certainly it is possible to leave any program but it is necessary to edit the file cicsMemoryPlayer.pth in notepad.(archive password: Serge)

ok I'm done would not boot w/o crypt32.dll. Serge did your cmp boot w/o this ...oh maybe because you boot into cmp it works for you.
Yes, Theo. My cMP2 runs fine w/o crypt32.dll. But the file crypt.dll should remain in system32.
Here are the content of the system folders of my system and screenshot of Autoruns (see link below; archive password: Serge).

I did leave crypt.dll in system32. Its a mystery then why it works for you but not me.
I bombed out on another c_437.nls
I'm going to reload and skip these nls files.
Don't delete browseui.dll otherwise cant use explorer to get into C or other drives to further edit or to run cplay.
Once again. My Tweak for COMPLETE/FINISHED system in which nothing should change. The idea is to make the fullest possible delete all that is not required for audio playback. (anyone not will require access to the drive C in the Linn Klimax:)).
I shall explain that I remove files and folders from the system drive of cMP2 using another operating system from the external hard drive. Thus you can always get access to the file system of the cMP2.

Just bombed out on c_1257.nls. So dont delete this one. Does anyone know how to safe start and get into these files?bombed out on c_1252.nls also ...don't know if my original post was based on my hand written notes (where often a 7 looks like a 2 or vice versa) or if both are needed.
Edits: 10/17/11
Sorry but I forgot to notify that the file с_1251.nls should be left for Russian Windows (as shown on a screenshot), but for English Windows it is necessary to leave instead of it the file с_1257.nls.(*.nls are Microsoft National Language Support Files)If the system is failed to get access to its file system I boot from the external hdd connected to esata port - it is very convenient.

I see you are deleting WINLOGON.
Are you doing the AUTORUNS stuff and then returning to MINLOGON before deleting WINLOGON?
Why not?
I installed the program Autoruns upon the button T.Screen in cMP settings and launched it in the mode Start cMP.

I thought I remembered cics saying something about it not working there. Who knows where I think I read this!
Glad to know it is not true,
After Greg's bringing up getting the controller out of the way - is this how you do it?
That is quite a list. It reminds me of a complete BOLD FORTUNE deletion with some extras just for good measure.
So you obviously still have your NETWORK capability?
What have you done with registry changes? You mentioned more AUTORUNS - have you kept to STEPPE's registry regimen?
Can you still access RUN and regedit with this configuration?
Bye,
The file JulaWDM.sys isn't used during playback in my system. (What drivers are used in the operating system currently can be viewed using the Everest/AIDA)."So you obviously still have your NETWORK capability?" - Yes!
"Can you still access RUN and regedit with this configuration?" - No.Full functionality is maintained in my setup without any concessions. I just deleted everything that did not participate in the work of my network player. ;)

1. I cannot make out for sure what you are recommending with "From the folder Fonts It is necessary to remove all files of that are specified on a screenshot (instead of Russian fonts with letter "r" probably it is necessary to leave yours): " Do you mean: remove fonts in this screenshot except for ones with an "r"? English ones like the ones with "r" except for the "r"? or are these the ones you say to leave? Is it only the ones with "r" at the end or also marlett and micross?
2. My Weiss driver for DAC202 seems to degrade over time and need reinstall periodically. I gather that would not be possible after this tweak amd thus make this unworkable for me (save replacing the entire partition when that is the case). Or am I wrong?
3. You say it sounds "detailed and smooth" but don't say you feel it is a significant improvement or how much of one you find it to be. Comment?
1. You should leave the files in the screenshot. The files 8514fixr.fon, 8514oemr.fon and 8514sysr.fon should be replaced by the corresponding English, for example.
2. My Tweak be used in a finished system. After my tweek you won't be able to change/reinstall anything in the system but also how you nothing can change in operating systems used in the industrial network players type Linn, Olive, etc.
3. I find it hard to clearly speak of the degree of improvement because the sound before was good. It seemed to me that some of the sharpness/pseudodetailness has disappeared and the sound became very analog but very detailed. In any case I would like to minimize the size of the system because I think this is going to benefit.

Serge do you know which files/folders may be associated with keyboard, mouse, usb and monitor? Some may be easy to identify (for example the phrase 'mouse', 'keyboard' or 'vga' in the name). But others are not.
Hi Theo!
Perhaps the files mouse.drv, mouhid.sys and mouclass.sys are associated with the mouse, and the file keyboard.sys isassociated with a keyboard. The monitor work after my tweek now. Perhaps usb ports stopped working even after tweaks Steppe (I haven't tested it, I have turned off it in BIOS and system). Perhaps the files hidusb.sys,hidclass.sys, hidparse.sys are associated with usb.
Serge.
