Projekt mit unterschiedlichen Dateiformaten

If you want to protect content with different file formats - e.g. EXE, PowerPoint and PDF in one project - it depends on the content type how to organize the project.

To find out, how to organize your project, use the check list below. The first decision depends on the fact, if you have

•one main content file (like EXE or SWF application) which invokes other files like PDF or video

•just a mix of content like PDF, video or audio and there is no main content file

Main content file is an EXE application

The main application is an EXE file which invokes other content like PDF, PowerPoint etc.

Create a new folder with the name Distribution and copy all files from the folder Deploy to this folder. The content of the folder would look like that

To open protected PDF files, there are 2 options:

All files are in one project - only recommended for small PDF files

•The PDF files can be placed in the same project like the EXE application. If the EXE application consists only of one file (no other files like DLL, JPGs) then uncheck the option: Extract all files. This would load only the EXE file during the program start. Otherwise also all other files would copied to the virtual zone, which would increase the loading time

•Open a PDF document with the command: player.exe -load "pdfname.pdf" - details see Start a specific file inside the database

EXE file and PDF files are in different projects

The PDF files are placed in an own project. This requires to create a copy of the original EXE project

•Split the project and create a copy for the PDF files

•Import the PDF files

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

Your final project would look like that (files with the name flyer... are the PDF documents)

To open the protected PDF file either

•Use a file open command to open the MMF document like you would do with the extension pdf or doc

•Open a PDF document with the command: player.exe -f "pdfname.mmf" - details see Open a database

The PowerPoint files are placed in an own project. This requires to create a copy of the original EXE project

•Split the project and create a copy for the PDF files

•Import the PowerPoint files - in case you have multiple PPT files with no links between the PPT files, make one project per PPT file

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

Your final project would look like that (files with the name ppt... are the PowerPoint documents)

To open the protected PowerPoint file either

•Use a file open command to open the MMF file like you would do with the extension pdf or doc

•Open a PDF document with the command: player.exe -f "pptname.mmf" - details see Open a database

The FLV files are placed in an own project . This requires to create a copy of the original EXE project

•Split the project and create a copy for the PDF files

•Import the FLV file - the recommended option is to convert it to swf. Then all videos can be placed into one project. If an external FLV player is used, then every FLV file needs a new project

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

Your final project would look like that (files with the name flv... are the FLV files)

To open the protected FLV file either

•Use a file open command to open the MMF file like you would do with the extension pdf or doc

•Open a swf video where multiple SWF videos are inside one database with the command: player.exe -f "videoname.mmf" -load "video1.swf" - details see Open a database

•Open a FLV video with one video per database with the command: player.exe -f "videoname.mmf" - details see Open a database

Multiple swf files are placed in an own project . This requires to create a copy of the original EXE project

•Split the project and create a copy for the PDF files

•Import all SWF files

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

Your final project would look like that (file with the name SWF contains all SWF files)

Open a swf video where multiple SWF videos are inside one database with the command: player.exe -f "videoname.mmf" -load "video1.swf" - details see Open a database

Multimedia Protector comes with an own video player, which can also play audio files. A video/audio project always consists of

•One .mmf database, which includes the video player

•One or several .mpvideo files, which included a protected version of the video/audio file

•Split the project and create one copy for the video player

•Protect the video / audio files

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

•From the folder with the encrypted video files copy all MPVIDEO files to the folder

Your final project would look like that (files with the extension .mpvideo are the video files)

To open the protected video / audio file either

•Use a file open command to open the MPVIDEO file like you would do with the extension wmv, pdf or doc

•Open a video with the command player.exe -f "videoplayer.mmf" "video1.mpvideo"

Mix of different content

If there is no main application but a mix of different content like PDF, PowerPowerPoint, SWF or videos then a menu application is required, that the user can select and open a file. The menu application itself is not protected.

Step 1 - Create the main project

The first step is to create an main project using one of content you want to protect. This main project is then later used and copied to create sub projects. In the sample the main project is named myapp.

Create a new folder with the name Distribution and copy all files from the folder Deploy to this folder. The content of the folder would look like that

Step 2 - Create sub projects

For every type of content you have to create a sub project

The PDF files are placed in an own project. This requires to create a copy of the main project

•Split the project and create a copy for the PDF files

•Import the PDF files

•From the folder Deploy only copy the MMF file (not the EXE and Lic) to the folder Distribution

Your final project would look like that (files with the name flyer... are the PDF documents)

To open the protected PDF file either

•Use a file open command to open the MMF document like you would do with the extension pdf or doc

•Open a PDF document with the command: player.exe -f "pdfname.mmf" - details see Open a database
