FindVUK 0.96 INI settings
Below is an overview of all sections and parameters in FindVUK's ini file. The ini file is found in the config subdirectory of the FindVUK directory, e.g. C:\FindVUK\config\FindVUK.ini, and can be edited with a simple text editor like Notepad. When FindVUK is run for the first time, it creates the ini file with default settings.
[FindVUK]
This section controls the FindVUK settings
- KEYDB_Path holds the directory where KEYDB.CFG is located. This file contains the necessary keys (VUKs, host certificates, processing keys) to decode AACS protected Blu-ray discs with VLC or other any other player based on libaacs.dll
- ?FOLDERID_RoamingAppData?\aacs (default)
- ProcDumpUrl holds the URL of the Windows Sysinternals ProcDump utility which is used to create memory dumps of supported DVDFab applications. Once downloaded, FindVUK saves ProcDump in the FindVUK\tool directory and does not re-download
- http://live.sysinternals.com/procdump.exe (default)
- CustomOffset_Folder2DiscId holds the location of the DiscID in the memory dump made by ProcDump
- empty (default, i.e. 0x114)
- CustomOffset_DiscId2Vuk holds the location of the VUK in the memory dump made by ProcDump
- empty (default, i.e. 0x5F)
- EjectDisc controls if the disc is ejected from the drive after VUK validation
- 0=don't eject
- 1=eject (default)
- DoNotDeleteMemoryDump controls if the memory dumps made by ProcDump are deleted or not after VUK extraction. The dumps are saved in the directory defined by the DumpPath parameter. Only used for debugging purposes
- 0=delete memory dump (default)
- 1=don't delete memory dump
- PreferredApplication controls which application is used in case more than 1 is installed on the computer. FindVUK supports 3 different applications. Registered versions are recommended but in the case of DVDFab 9, FindVUK does not trigger the start of the trial period so it can be used indefinitely
- 1=DVDFab Passkey
- 2=DVDFab MediaPlayer 2
- 3=DVDFab 9
- IniVersion is used to detect the current version of the ini file and automatically add new or remove old parameters. Do not change manually
- CreateVukBackup controls if the VUK is saved in the KEYDB backup file found in the directory defined by the KEYDB_Backup_Path parameter
- 0=don't create a backup
- 1=create a backup (default)
- KEYDB_WriteDateEntry controls if the date of the disc is saved in the main KEYDB file. This causes problems for AACS Updater 1.1 which ignores these VUKs
- 0=don't save date (default)
- 1=save date
- KEYDB_Backup_Path holds the directory where the KEYDB backup file is saved
- empty (default, i.e. FindVUK\VUKbackup)
- KEYDB_Backup_WriteDateEntry controls if the date of the disc is saved in the KEYDB backup file
- 0=don't save date
- 1=save date (default)
- MeaninglessVolumeNames holds a comma-separated list of meaningless volume names. When the disc's volume name is found in this list, the meta-title may be added to the volume name depending on the parameter AlwaysAddMetaTitleToVolumename
- _NONAME_, BDROM, LOGICAL_VOLUME_ID (default)
- PauseBeforeValidateVUK controls if FindVUK waits for the user to press Enter before VUK validation is started
- 0=don't wait (default)
- 1=wait
- DumpPath holds the directory where the ProcDump memory dumps are saved
- empty (default, i.e. FindVUK\dump)
- WriteDebugLog controls if FindVUK writes extra debug info in the log and in the FindVUK\MemDump directory when retrieving drive details
- 0=no extra debug info (default)
- 1=extra debug info
- SaveWindowPositionOnExit controls if the position of the FindVUK window on the Windows desktop is saved on exit and restored on start
- 0=don't save window position
- 1=save window position (default)
- LastWindowPosition holds the last saved position of the FindVUK window on the Windows desktop. Do not change manually
- KEYDB_Write_VukNotValidated_Entry controls if the VUK is saved in the main KEYDB file when it cannot be verified because of busencryption. Since busencryption is currently not supported by FindVUK, a VUKNOTVAL entry will be written in the KEYDB file when busencryption is enabled on the disc AND drive. Therefore this setting is only relevant when your drive supports busencryption. Whenever possible, use a drive that does NOT support busencryption to avoid any problems
- 0=don't save unverified VUK
- 1=save unverified VUK (default)
[Passkey]
This section controls the DVDFab Passkey settings
- LogFolder holds the directory for the application's log file. This parameter is only used in case automatic detection based on the Windows registry fails
- ?FOLDERID_Documents?\DVDFab Passkey\Log (default)
- MainFile holds the path for the main exe file of the application. In case the path is empty it is automatically retrieved from the registry
[MediaPlayer]
This section controls the DVDFab MediaPlayer settings
- LogFolder holds the directory for the application's log file. This parameter is only used in case automatic detection based on the Windows registry fails
- ?FOLDERID_Documents?\DVDFab Media Player (default)
- MainFile holds the path for the main executable file of the application. In case the path is empty it is automatically retrieved from the registry
- CloseAtTheEnd controls if the application is closed when quitting FindVUK. This requires pressing ESC to quit FindVUK
- 0=don't close
- 1=close (default)
[DVDfab]
This section controls the DVDFab settings
- LogFile holds the complete path for the application's log file, including the filename at the end (for Passkey and MediaPlayer only the directory can be specified). This parameter is only used in case automatic detection based on the Windows registry fails
- ?FOLDERID_Documents?\DVDFab9\Log\dvdfab_internal.log (default)
- MainFile holds the path for the main exe file of the application. In case the path is empty it is automatically retrieved from the registry
- CloseAtTheEnd controls if the application is closed when quitting FindVUK. This requires pressing ESC to quit FindVUK
- 0=don't close
- 1=close (default)
[BlurayMeta]
This section controls how the disc's meta-title is handled. The english title of a disc is stored in [drive:]\BDMV\META\DL\bdmt_eng.xml but there can be other files for different languages. The meta-title is sometimes more meaningful than the volume name
- PreferredLanguages holds a comma-separated list of ISO 639-2/T language codes and controls the order of preferred languages for the disc's meta-title. For example "deu,fra,ita,spa,dut" means that FindVUK tries to read the german title first. If the german title is not available, it tries the french title. If the french title is not available, it tries the italian title and so on. The english title is always tried last even if it is not specified, i.e. "deu, eng" is the same as "deu"
- empty (default, i.e. read english title or the first available language if english does not exist)
- AlwaysAddMetaTitleToVolumename controls if the disc's meta-title is added between ( ) after the volume name in the KEYDB file
- 0=add it when the volume name is meaningless, i.e. it is in the list defined by parameter MeaninglessVolumeNames
- 1=always add it
- 2=add it when the meta-title is meaningful, i.e. it is not in the list defined by parameter MeaninglessMetaNames (default)
- MeaninglessMetaNames holds a comma-separated list of meaningless meta-titles
[Console]
This section controls the size of the FindVUK window and its buffer. The screen parameters cannot be bigger than the corresponding buffer parameters
- BufferHeight controls the height of the FindVUK window buffer, i.e. how many lines are saved in the history
- BufferWidth controls the width of the FindVUK window buffer
- ScreenHeight controls the height of the FindVUK window. Note that ScreenHeight <= BufferHeight
- ScreenWidth controls the width of the FindVUK window. Note that ScreenWidth <= BufferWidth
[AacsCentralDB]
This section controls the automatic contribution of VUKs to the central AACS Updater VUK database. This prevents from having to run AACS Updater manually to contribute verified keys. Note that to download new keys, AACS Updater still needs to be run manually
- AutoVukUpload controls if the verified VUK is automatically contributed to the central VUK database
- 0=don't automatically contribute
- 1=automatically contribute (default)
- UploadUrl holds the URL to the manual AACS Updater VUK contribution form
- http://www.labdv.com/aacs/keydb-upload.php (default)
