Are you trying to obtain audio through a sound card or from the line out/headphone socket? If you are trying via the sound card have you linked the output from the CD drive to the audio input socket on the sound card? Paul
When I was developing CDPlayer, I spent some time trying to use the UPC as a means of identifying the CD which had been inserted. The problem is that not all CDs have the code stored on the disk and it is therefore not a guaranteed method to use. I…

#CDPlayer – SWREG
Message #51361
Sorry not to make myself clear. CDPlayer (my audio CD playing and cataloging program for Windows and DOS) is in Library 4 as CDPJ.ZIP. It has recently been added to the SWREG forum database – entry 999. CIS members can join the forum and register the software on-line. Their account…
Have a look at CDPlayer (in Library 4 as CDPJ.ZIP). It has all the functions of a home CDPlayer (+ a few more) and disc cataloging. You can now register through SWREG – REG ID 999 Paul Brace (Author of CDPlayer).
You need software to control the audio facilities. The drive will come with a program but thoes supplied tend to be rather basic. No disc catalogue, custom play, etc etc. Paul

CD-PLAYER with kaleidosk
Message #50613
I have not seen this. You could try out CDPlayer here is library 4. It has disc cataloging etc. Quote from review in PC Plus (UK mag out today): 'Jupiter's remarkable CD PLayer is a CD utility that could conclusively relegate most of its rivals to the sidelines.' Paul (Author…

#CD ROM software???

If you are interested in playing Audio CDs have alook at CDPlayer. CDPJ.ZIP in library 4. Paul Brace (Author of CDPlayer)
I assume this is directed at me. The name CD player is, I would have thought, so inherent in the nature of the product that the possibility of others using the description are quite likely! This is the first time I have heard of your company and the product (presumably…
If your drive is recognized as a data drive, my CDPlayer for windows should be able to operate it even if other windows programs have problems. CDPJ.zip in library 4 Paul (Author of CDPlayer)
CDPlayer $ Registration
Message #49860
CDPlayer $ Registration As a result of the requests/comments made on Compuserve. I have recently (this morning in fact) arranged for the Public Software Library to take US$ registrations. The price is $35 including shipping and you can order by phone (800 number) or by Fax, CompuServe or Post sending…
Thanks Paul. I received the first registration from one of your members on Friday, so I assume it is the chap you mention. I mailed Graham to inform him and say thanks just before downloading your message. I am please CDPlayer was received well and look forward to many more…
(continued) companies do you know that will accept payment in other currencies? It is simply not practical. As registrations increase in the US we will look into the possibility of appointing a UK agent. Paul
Thanks for your continued interest. 1) CDPlayer for windows has a universal install program for the creation of a directory, copying of the files and creation of a program group. It is not necessary to use this program and the documentation gives details of how to install it manually, in…

Support for multiple CD drives is now on the enhancement list, and the bookmark facility (which would allow the setting of movement positions on long tracks) is on the distinct possibility list. Paul
I will binmail you this blink MSCDEX21.ZIP. It is Microsofts descrition of interfacing with 2.1. Hope this helps. Paul
It is not Alt P but simply P. This will play provided none of the buttons have focus. I will add the CIS ID to the about box and also look at setting the letters up as hot keys as well as straight key presses. Paul
Don't take me wrong, I was not put out by your comments. I am not sure that share would cause the sort of problem you have encountered, but if you say it causes other programs top bomb out there could be something going on in the background. If you glean…
This should not happen! One of the things we pride ourselves on is the stability of CDPlayer. A thought has occured as to what the problem may be, CDPlayer thinks that you are using drive X if you make drive X unavailable, by switching to drive Y using another program…
The method of selecting CD may well fit in with an item on my wish list for CDPlayer – namely the ability to select the CD drive to be played if more than one exists. The present though is that you will be able to select the drive from a…
