ATRAC3+ decoding idea

[knws]

Okays, I finally have some progress on isolation. This is what I've done:

1. Create a folder somewhere, jpcsp\atrac3+ for example.

2. With SS installed fetch SonyWavWriter.ax from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Sony Shared\AVLib.
Adjust Program Files part to your architecture. Put it inside the folder.

2. Now remove SS entirely. All components. Delete Sony registry entries from HKLM/HKCU,
clean C:\ProgramData and all Sony files under C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files\Common Files
that could be left by the uninstaller. Reboot.

3. During installation of SonicStage it downloads it's components from Sony servers.
Stop installation process after it's done downloading and fetch openmgsetup.zip
from your local tamp folder. Delete anything else. Put it in the folder.

4. Now extract openmgsetup.zip to openmgsetup subdirectory and install it.

5. Create install.bat file in the folder, near SonyWavWriter.ax, with the following contents:

Code:

@echo off

regsvr32.exe "%~dp0SonyWavWriter.ax"

And run it as administrator.

6. uninstall.bat to undo operation:

Code:

@echo off

regsvr32.exe /u "%~dp0SonyWavWriter.ax"

7. Try running jpcsp with Media Engine / SS decoding enabled and it all should work.

Now I just need to get rid of OpenMG installer and make this module portable.
Of course this won't be possible to distribute with jpcsp but at least it is something one
would be able to repeat on his/her side to get rid of all unnecessary SS junk.
