I'm publishing onto CD and I'm looking for a way of detecting drivers and installing them if they are not already on the client machine, especially .mov files. Anyone know of a way?

I've tried using Auto Run from Typhoon which has a failsafe feature but I miss the Opus functionality.

The simplest method is to have a short introductory video set to play on-top, with a button behind that says "If you can see this click here to install QuickTime". If they have QuickTime all they see is the video, if not the button is there to prompt them to install it. Obviously you would need to provide some on-screen instructions so they exit and restart the publication after the install.
