    I tried with KLM, with Master Tab and manually (nicnt + xml). always gives me this error: https://s9.postimg.org/5lwspoen3/add.png
    once I found also "encrypted library" error, but I can't replicate it anymore.

    This is because the SNPID is composed of THREE hexidecimal characters, not four, as the guy in the Youtube video seems to imply. Kontakt will ignore anything after three characters, so it sees 9720 and 9721 as the same, thus you have a conflict. It sees 9800 and 9899 as distinct, because their first three characters are not the same.

    In general its wise not to use all numbers anyway, since these SNPIDs tend to be hard-assigned to commercially released libraries. So even if it doesn't cause problems now, you may have a conflict later when you attempt to install a library that uses the same number. Even if a commercial library contains a separate .nicnt file, don't attempt to open it up and change its SNPID if you do encounter a conflict - the number is referenced elsewhere as well, so doing that will likely render the library unusable. Instead change the SNPID number of your home-made .nicnt file. But first delete its XML and preference files.

    It's wise to keep track of your used SNPIDs - these can be viewed in Kontakt's XML files. Check out Introninja's handy tutorial for quickly viewing them all.

    I had a lot of trouble with the very same - combining all the (excellent!) SampleModeling libraries into one collection. For whatever reason they seem to corrupt very easily. Anyway, it works for me now - here's my workflow, sorry if you know some or all of this already:

    - install all four individual libraries, confirm that they aren't locked, and load properly, batch resave if necessary

    - remove all four from the Kontakt libraries tab, but don't delete their XML files

    - create a "combined" folder on my libs disk, eg "SampleModeling Complete", create within it Instruments, Multis and Documentation folders

    - create subfolders for each library in the Instruments folder, in the Multis folder and in the Documentation folder

    - put each library's multis in its Multis folder and its instruments, samples folder and all .nkr, .nkc and .nkx files in its Instruments folder

    - put each library's manual, readme's, wallpaper and .nfo files in its Documentation folder

    - do a Batch Resave of the whole collection.

    - install the collection in the Kontakt libraries tab

    At present the collection is behaving, but in the past it has done so for a while, then suddenly become un-authorized after a few months.This group has been the worst for that and I'm not sure why. I've compiled many combined lib collections, including quite a few containing commercial libs with their own sample tomes, and for the most part they've been fine. I own Sax Bros and Trumpet, the other two are cracked, but I think I've tried it with cracks of all four as well. Needless to say I use Lil Snitch.

    I am just wondering...
    what is the low down on this "SNPID" number issue? I have been looking around and have found lots of information on this topic. Anywhere from number to letter combos and everything under the sun. Is there a definitive solution of process to all this?

    I ask simply because I am going to be creating a lot of library files using MINI-NICNT and it ask for a SNPID. I dont want things to catch fire or go diving into the registry abyss and meet the demon from within.

    Can anyone here help with this and shed some light on this rather shady topic?

    Thank you!!!

    NO NEED OF MINI NICNT.Use this.IT's CALLED KLC (KONTAKT LIBRARY/nicnt CREATOR).No need to bang your head and search for SNPID numbers of every library.
    Just download and open this KLC.exe software and select the respective Library folder (of which you wanna create the nicnt file) by clicking BROWSE. Then name the nicnt file and click on CREATE.Enjoy!!!!!!

    (NOTE : you can name the nicnt file as per name of the library................like if you want nicnt of Spitfire Audio Albion 5 Tundra, then on the box,name it as Spitfire Audio Albion 5 Tundra / or any name that you want. doesn't matter actually.This software automatically detects the SNPID number of the libraries.No need to paste this software in each library folder like MINI NICNT GENERATOR :rofl:User can keep the software anywhere.If you delete the software too,it doesn't matter. Coz the nicnt gets created permanently without any headache)

    hey guys, thanks for the heads up on this app KLC. Is there a way to choose your own wallpaper instead of the default KLC one?

    Carnivor just replace the wallpaper.png with whatever you want to use (still calling it wallpaper). Next time you open Kontakt it will refresh. FWIW KLM is way better than Mini Nicnt and no messing about with serials numbers.

    oh I see, after going to edit my wallpaper I realised that KLC had replaced my wallpaper with its own. All sorted, thanks mate.

    there is no default klc wallpaper.You can choose any wallpaper you like.You can make the wallpaper on your own too.But remember....minimum dimensions should be 636(width) x 118(height) or 636(width) x 98(height) or 632(Width) x 98(height)
    KLC just creates the permanent nicnt.user can create or find their own choices of wallpapers too.
