The app on this page is a simple bat file that will start SS2 with only one CPU core. A lot more simple than other methods I've had to use.

You can also add to this bat file: regsvr32 "*your SS2 folder*\lgvid.ax" so that the cutscenes will always play. However, there is a dialog that pops up saying that the DLL was succefully registered that some may find annoying, and I was wondering if anyone knew how to get this to dissapear? Or if it was possible to have the DLL be registered whenever you boot up your computer, without an annoying pop up message.

<code>regsvr32.exe /s</code> will suppress all messages. And you may as well have it in the batchfile rather than clutter up the windows boot process (especially since the codec can become unregistered in the course of a session).
Do you actually need to specify the full path to lgvid.ax when it's already located in the current working directory of the batchfile?

I'll try it and see. Right now my videos aren't working, but they do when I register when the DLL so I'll be able to tell.
EDIT: You were right, but I needed to type the full path to regsvr32, so my line looks like like this: c:\Windows\System32\regsvr32.exe /s "lgvid.ax"

Correct, I think all that is needed would be 'regsvr32 .\lgvid.ax'.

Strange, regsvr32 should be in the path, and what Bjossi suggested should work...

In any case, for maximum portability you should use %SystemRoot%\system32\regsrv32.exe in the batchfile instead of C:\Windows\etc.
