DevalVR Packer

Hi everyone,
I can't reply to my previous post here www.panoguide.com/forums/commercial/6478/ , so I open this new thread, because this could be useful for all users of DevalVR Packer.
The new version of the player 0,7,9,7 ( www.devalvr.com/descargas/dps/playerUnicode.zip ) has a new function to install the package as a screensaver in the Windows system. This function has a parameter to define the name of the screensaver, this is the syntax:
InstallScreensaver(name);
This function can be executed from any portion of code, into a timer, button, hotspot, keyboard... This function only works when the package is running (not from normal player), because this function installs the package itself as a screensaver.
This is an example www.devalvr.com/panos/Mansion_Panorama.exe
This is the source code of this example, you can use 0,7,9,7 player to create a package with these files www.devalvr.com/panos/installscreensaver.zip
In addition, I created a new property "startscreensaver" for the instruction PROPERTYCODE. This property is activated when the package is executed as a screensaver. You can see the sourcecode of my example, I use this instruction to hide the message "Press [F12] key..." when the package is running as a screensaver.
The function "InstallScreensaver" includes a field into the "Add/Remove Programs" list of the system. So, you can uninstall the screensaver easily (the SCR is removed from the system). You can see this option in the Control Panel of Windows, into "Add/Remove Programs", search the name that you used as parameter in the "InstallScreensaver" function.
regards!

Thanks Fiero.
I downloaded and installed, but when I hit the F12 button, Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 took over:
Kaspersky said: 22.1.2010 14:42:06
Terminado: PDM.Trojan.generic
C OCUMENTS AND SETTINGSTRAUSTIMY DOCUMENTSDOWNLOADSMANSION_PANORAMA.EXE

Thanks for the feedback Trausti.
This is a very new feature, maybe I need to improve the behavior. When you press F12 the installer creates an entry in the registry of Windows to allow a later uninstall of the screen saver. Maybe Kaspersky does not allow to modify this registry key. Of course, this is not a trojan  . I will install Kaspersky to test.
I tested this feature in WindowsXP and Vista and it works correctly (I do not have Kaspersky). The screensaver is not installed on Windows7, I must fix it.
Thanks!

I am sure it's not with a trojan. But many people might not want to take the chance. Looking forward to check it again when you have fixed it.

Tested again, and still having problem with Kaspersky.
Here you can see a video of how it looks:
flashificator.com/1/Diverse/Deval3/Deval3.html
In the screen (before installing) the panorama is shaking and jumping erratically most of the time. It does not show (much) in the video grab, but at 1 minute and 20 seconds and 8 seconds on, you can see it in the miniature preview in "Display Properties"... shaking and dancing all over. I don't know why it didn't record it on the bigger viewer (probably fps issue... recorded at 15fps).
Hope this helps in some way, and thank you!
Trausti

take away kaspersky and use windows security essentials. there is a kaspremoval-tool.
regarding devalvr-packer: i still havent not yet installed dvr on my site. thats why my shy question:
is this packer a paid tool to installing amazing dvr on ones website? if yes, is there 3dstereo integrated with xpi-installation? cant wait having avi-support. then we are no more dependent from flashplayer, which need admin. rights to be installed,right? dvr can be installed in restricted mode. until now for video inside panorama in FIREFOX we had to install flashplayer for internet explorer(in internet explorer?)with admin. rights and not in FIREFOX itself. thanks armando/fiero. happy 3d-stereo-2010!

Removing Kaspersky is not an option.
I have paid good money for 2 year licenses for 6 puters, and it happens to be the best general protection... in my view.

I uploaded a new version of this example www.devalvr.com/panos/Mansion_Panorama.exe
Now, the screensaver is "Kaspersky friendly" 
I will add this feature to install screensavers automatically as an option in the packer to easy use.
Thank you very much for the test!
