Playback CDs (Audio and Data)

 

Play Audio CDs

1.

Insert the CD into your CD-ROM drive.

2.

If Media Center doesn’t start playing the CD immediately, simply click on the drive (in the tree) containing the audio CD.

3.

If auto insert notification for that drive is enabled, the contents of your device will be updated automatically. If not, press F5 to update the contents.

YADB and CD Track Information

Media Center will go to YADB for CD Track information if it is not able to get that information from the CD itself. To disable YADB lookup, go to Tools | Options | Device Settings and uncheck "Enable on-line CD lookup". Visit the YADB website for more information.

Auto Play

If Audio CDs don’t automatically play, enable Auto Play. Go to Tools | Options | Device Settings, and under “Action to perform when media is inserted”, select Play in the drop-down menu next to Audio CD. Check or uncheck “Ask every time”. Also associate CDs with Media Center. While in Tools | Options, go to File Associations in the tree, and check “Associate with audio CDs”.
