horusofoz:
Hey just following up again. I noticed your PortableApps.com installer is using an outdated version which leads me to believe the bug with drive letter changing and admin rights is still present. I suggest posting your installer to the PortableApps.com forums. The community there are very active in assisting developers using the PortableApps.com Format.
nostra:
Yeah, sorry. I just had no time to deal with this, but you could still try this one as there were also some problems with access rights in the database files which are fixed now...
horusofoz:
I did some limited testing on college computers. XP SP3, limited rights. The application opened without issues. Added a movie, closed the app, restarted it and it open the database by default. That means that bug is dealt with (I think ;)). I noticed that a folder is created by default at X:\Documents\Personal Video Database\. Can I suggest moving this to X:\PortableApps\PVD Portable\Data ? This keeps all of PVD's files together and doesn't create extra folders in the users documents area.
Still need to regshot for files or keys left behind and test how it holds up to drive letter changing. Will try to get this done tonight.
nostra:
Thx for the testing.

Yes, it is a good idea.
horusofoz:
Good news. PVD Portable successfully managed the drive letter change. However My testing is limited to XP SP3. Still it worked :)
Below is a Regshot.

Note I used a registry cleaner before doing the regshot so some of the files added are nothing relevant to PVD and can be ignored. From what I can see it seemed ok but again I suggest you post to the PortableApps.com Forum as their devs offer constant well mannered and support.
Thanks for taking the time to develop a PortableApps.com Format version of PVD:)
