Step-by-Step installation instructions

The TurboPlayer Service Setup folder contains several files for different setup scenarios.

TurboPlayer Service Setup with UI/Wizard

The Wizard installation is particularly useful for a first-time installation on a local computer. It offers extensive support for parameter validation and connection checks. For example, combo boxes are populated with valid values only, and clear error messages are provided when incorrect information, such as credentials, is entered. Additionally, a connection check is launched at the end of the installation.

To install TurboPlayer Service using the typical Windows Installer Wizard, run TurboPlayerServiceSetup.exe. For a step-by-step installation instruction, see the TurboPlayer Service Setup (with UI / Wizard).

TurboPlayer Service Setup without UI/Wizard - Unattended Installation

An Unattended Installation refers to installing the software automatically without requiring any manual intervention or user input during the process.

Unattended setup via command line

First, the unattended installation via command line is ideal for installing on a local computer when all configuration parameters are known in advance. You can adjust the Unattended_TPSSetup.bat batch file and execute it from the command line.

Second, the command line installation is particularly useful for upgrade installations, where an older version of TurboPlayer Service is already installed and functioning. Instead of using a batch file, you can simply execute:

TurboPlayerServiceSetup.exe /L*V setup.log /qn

All configuration settings from the previous installation are preserved.

The installation of TurboPlayer Service unattended using the command line is documented in Unattended TPS Setup (by command line)

Unattended setup using PowerShell

Using PowerShell is especially suitable if you need to install TurboPlayer Service on multiple computers. The PowerShell installation script utilizes PowerShell remoting for remote installations.

Additionally, the PowerShell installation supports wildcards for locating and installing the latest version of the TurboPlayer Service Setup. This feature is particularly useful in automated testing and CI/CD (Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery/Deployment) scenarios. When the TurboPlayer Service Setup folder is added as a sub-folder, the scripts automatically search for the newest version and proceed with the installation.
