NTSC-J, PAL, and SECAM TV Tuner Hotfix
for DirectX 9.0b on Windows 2000,
Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003
(KB825116)
11/04/2003 11:37 PMDirectX 9.0b was released on 7/23/03 to address the MIDI security
issue identified in bulletin MS03-030. A small number of non-security
fixes were also included in the release. One of these fixes caused
several TV Tuner capture card/driver combinations using video formats
other than NTSC (NTSC-J, PAL, SECAM) to no longer initialize correctly
on Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003. Symptoms include
loss of capture functionality and potential inability to set/retain
device capture settings. This hotfix, documented further in Knowledge
Base article 825116, has been issued to correct the flaw.
11-04-03 update: The English hotfix package has been modified to allow
patching of all language installations supported by the affected
Operating Systems.

script commands (such as URL script commands and custom script

the script commands can trigger events in an embedded player program,
or they can open your browser and then navigate to a Web page. This

Windows Installer 3 Update
09/09/2004 10:58 AMMicrosoft have released info on the progress of their next generation
installer sofware, version 3.
"Since the general availability of Windows XP Service Pack 2, the
Windows Installer team has received numerous inquiries about the
status of the Windows Installer 3.0. We wanted to give everyone an
update and pointers to where you can find the information you need.
The Windows Installer 3.0 is released in
three pieces:
The first piece is the actual bits that shipped as part of Windows XP
Service Pack 2. Service Pack 2 is widely available through Windows
Update as well as from
here.
The second piece is the SDK documentation and tools that are available
of the Windows XP Service Pack 2 SDK that is now available from
here.
The final piece is the down level redistributable for Windows 2000
Service Pack 3 and 4, Windows XP, Windows XP Service Pack 1, and
Windows Server 2003. Unfortunately, we have experienced a delay in
making this redistributable available. We expect to make the
redistributable
available in September, but we do not yet have
a firm date."

Windows XP SP2 Express Installer
08/14/2004 04:42 AMFor those of you how have been waiting for Microsoft to release the
express installer for Service Pack 2 because 272MB is too much for
you, the wait is now over.
Typical users of the express installer should expect a 80-90MB
download, since the express installer only downloads updates for
components that your computer has. This is a more reasonable size for
dial-up users, and others who can't spare the bandwidth.
There is no difference in the files that are downloaded between this
version and the full network install, except that the network install
will contain content that your computer probably will not use. Also,
it should be noted that you
cannot use the express installer to
create slipstream installs.
