| 1 | Media-Folder and Audio-Shadow 13.03.02 | 
|---|
| 2 | -------------------------------------- | 
|---|
| 3 |  | 
|---|
| 4 | The Media-Folder serves as a player for any | 
|---|
| 5 | audio file known by OS/2. The usual play | 
|---|
| 6 | controls are available and you may create | 
|---|
| 7 | playlists just by dropping files into the folder. | 
|---|
| 8 |  | 
|---|
| 9 | Audio files will not be put into the folder directly | 
|---|
| 10 | but shadows are created. | 
|---|
| 11 | A new shadow class shows you details information | 
|---|
| 12 | for the linked audio files in the details view of a | 
|---|
| 13 | Media-Folder. | 
|---|
| 14 |  | 
|---|
| 15 | A WPS enabled CD player with FreeDB support is included. | 
|---|
| 16 |  | 
|---|
| 17 | Installation | 
|---|
| 18 | ------------ | 
|---|
| 19 |  | 
|---|
| 20 | Run the installation file MEDIAFLD.INS. This will start | 
|---|
| 21 | the Generic installer which must be installed on your system. | 
|---|
| 22 |  | 
|---|
| 23 | The Generic Installer comes with Audio/Data-CD-Creator | 
|---|
| 24 | the CW-Multimedia classes and may be downloaded from | 
|---|
| 25 |  |

| 26 | http://www.os2world.com/cdwriting | 
|---|
| 27 | http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Sector/5785/ | 
|---|
| 28 |  | 
|---|
| 29 |  | 
|---|
| 30 | You have to restart the WPS so the changes can take effect. | 
|---|
| 31 |  | 
|---|
| 32 | The command file setFolder.cmd sets the details and sort class of | 
|---|
| 33 | a folder to CWAudio so the new information is shown in the details | 
|---|
| 34 | view and the sort menu contains the new items. Just drop the folder | 
|---|
| 35 | in question on the script. | 
|---|
| 36 |  | 
|---|
| 37 | The command file setShadow.cmd sets the details and sort class of | 
|---|
| 38 | a folder to CWAudioShadow so the new information is shown in the details | 
|---|
| 39 | view and the sort menu contains the new items when using the new | 
|---|
| 40 | Audio-shadows automatically created when dropping audio files on a | 
|---|
| 41 | Media-Folder. Just drop the folder in question on the script. | 
|---|
| 42 |  | 
|---|
| 43 | Setup strings | 
|---|
| 44 | ------------- | 
|---|
| 45 |  | 
|---|
| 46 | The following setup strings are currently supported. | 
|---|
| 47 |  | 
|---|
| 48 | MEDIAFLDRPLAY=1        start playing | 
|---|
| 49 | MEDIAFLDRSTOP=1        stop playing | 
|---|
| 50 | MEDIAFLDRNEXT=1        skip to next song | 
|---|
| 51 | MEDIAFLDRPREV=1        skip to previous song | 
|---|
| 52 | MEDIAFLDRVOLUME=xx     set volume to 0...100 | 
|---|
| 53 |  | 
|---|
| 54 | The object MUST be open when using these strings! | 
|---|
| 55 |  | 
|---|
| 56 |  | 
|---|
| 57 | Uninstallation | 
|---|
| 58 | -------------- | 
|---|
| 59 |  | 
|---|
| 60 | If you installed the classes using the Generic installer | 
|---|
| 61 | then use the installer to remove the classes. | 
|---|
| 62 |  | 
|---|
| 63 |  | 
|---|
| 64 | Known problems | 
|---|
| 65 | -------------- | 
|---|
| 66 |  | 
|---|
| 67 | The volume and position bars are a little bit flaky. | 
|---|
| 68 | The playtime may be not correct for some VBR-MP3s. This is a problem | 
|---|
| 69 | of the MMIOMP3-Proc not the classes. | 
|---|
