silent-installer

I have a third party application I would like to silent install from the command line.

The application is PPLive available at: http://www.pptv.com/en/

It is an NSIS installer, and currently when silently installed, installs toolbars, and additional pieces of software, launches on completion etc.

Without repackaging it, how do I control the checkbox options on the pages of the normal installer from the silent command line install.

Is it even possible?
