 What is WINCDP

WINCDP provides a solution for Microsoft Windows to play CD audio through the CD-ROMs installed on users PC. WINCDP also provides a CD database that contains several columns for users to input textual information of a CD. In other words, users can easily maintain a CD catalog by using WINCDP. WINCDP also detect the existence and compatibility of a sound card. If a sound card does exist, WINCDP allow users to control volume, L/R volume if their sound card will.

WINCDP is a shareware application and gives users chance to try all its functions before purchasing it.I have set the registration fee to US $10 from the first release on and I do think that its a fair price.Please support the shareware concept for encouraging the future development of windows shareware.WINCDP is written in MS C/SDK and WINCDP uses CTL3D.DLL to accomplish 3D effects.The latest version of WINCDP can be found on the:

If you do not see any of them, you had better download WINCDP again.

REGISTER.TXT is only included in evaluation package.


Install WINCDP

The installation of WINCDP is very simple. All you have to do is copy all the files to your hard disk.    Select WINCDP into one of your Window Groups from Windows.

There are things that you have to notice ...

1.)	Make sure that WINCDP.EXE WINCDDLL.DLL MSDNTB.DLL and WINCDP.HLP

are in the same directory.

2.)	Copy CTL3D.DLL to your window\system directory. Dont override the newer one in your

windows\system directory.

Well, I am writing a Setup program that will automatically install WINCDP for you.

Trouble Shooting

[Q]	I have windows, cdrom, why I cannot use WINCDP !?

[A]	Please make sure you have installed [MCI] CD Audio already. It is necessary for

Windows to play CD Audio.

[Q]	Why I cannot control volume levels of my sound card within WINCDP.

[A]	Well, WINCDP fails to control volume levels under some sound cards. Most of them are from 	Sound Blaster. Some sound cards dont support both right and left volume control. In this case, 	only the master slider will be enabled.

For the users of Sound Blaster sound cards, you have to install the Auxiliary audio drivers as 	well as to the driver of [MCI] CD audio.

[Q]	Why my HD light blinking most of the time when I was using WINCDP.

[A]	Try to enable any disk caching program, such as smartdrv that comes with MS-DOS and

MS-Windows. The smartdrv is strongly recommended.

Play Modes

There are six play modes now. They are described below.

Mode Name	Description

Normal	Play a CD in its original order, just once.

Shuffle Play	Randomly play songs on a CD.

Repeat Disc	continuously play the whole disc

Repeat Song	continuously play a certain song

Program Play	Play songs that are in program list

Pseudo-random	Play songs that are in pseudo-random list

When you want WINCDP to play in any mode shown above, just check that radio button and push play

button. Then WINCDP will play CD audio in the way you want.


Timer Display Modes

You can toggle the timer display mode between Elapsed and Remaining.

They are described below.

Name	Description

Elapsed	Display the timer from the beginning of a song.

Remaining	Display the timer from the end of a song.


Compact Disc Database

WINCDP provides a Compact Disc Database from 2.0 release on.WINCDP saves all the textual information to WINCDP.INI. You can find this file in your windows subdirectory. You can also edit your CD catalog with a text file editor such as PEII, NOTEPAD and so on. Its very easy to understand the format of WINCDP.INI.

When you open Database Dialog Box, you will see a list box with all the CD titles and a list box which contains detailed track information of a CD. Double-clicking on the item of CD titles listbox causes the contents of track information listbox to change. Double-clicking on the item of track-info listbox to change the textual information.


Pseudo Random

Pseudo Random is much alike to Program . It allows users to play songs on a certain CD from the one he/she likes best to the one he/she does not like. Of course, the users have to construct a pseudo-random list first.

There are two list boxes in the Pseudo Dialog Box.One is Available List,the other is Pseudo List.

As you can see, the Available List contains as many items as the total number of tracks on a CD.

You can select songs from Available List to Pseudo List by double-clicking the items in

Available List.. You can delete songs from Pseudo List by double-clicking the items in it.

Summary

Available List:	Display the information of songs on a disc. You can add them to Pseudo List by

double clicking on the items.

Pseudo List:	Display the information of songs you have selected. You can unselect them by double

clicking on the items.

After you have constructed a pseudo list, the pseudo-radio-button will be enabled. Then you can

select pseudo-random and push play button to enjoy songs in your order.

The major difference between Pseudo-random and Program is that songs can only be selected once

in pseudo-random while there is no limitation in the program mode.

Now there are two additional columns added. The total tracks and time programmed.

It can help you record your cds to tapes easier.


Program

If you have a regular CD player, you will know for what purpose this option is. It allows users to enjoy

their CDs in any order they like without questions.

There are two list boxes in the Program Dialog Box.One is Available List,the other is Program List.

As you can see, the Available List contains as many items as the total number of tracks on a CD.

You can select songs from Available List to Program List by double clicking the items in

Available List.. You can delete songs from Program List by double clicking the items in it.

Summary

Available List:	Display the information of songs on a disc. You can add them to Program List by

double clicking on the items.

Program List:	Display the information of songs you have selected. You can unselect them by double

clicking on the items.

After you have constructed a program list, the program-radio-button will be enabled. Then you can

select program and push play button to enjoy songs in your order.

The major difference between Pseudo-random and Program is that songs can only be selected once

in pseudo-random while there is no limitation in the program mode.

Now there are two additional columns added. The total tracks and time programmed.

It can help you record your cds to tapes easier.


Volume Control

There are three meter-bars presenting left, right, and master volume level. There are also three micro-scrolls for users to increase or decrease volume levels. Users can click the up or down arrows of micro-scrolls to increase or decrease volume levels.

Volume Control of WINCDP is only available if your sound card will.  Some people dont have a sound card installed as the interface card for the cdrom and there enjoy Audio CD from the phone output on the deck of the cdrom. In this case, WINCDP will disable all the volume control buttons and will not allow users to change volume levels.


Immediately Play after Inserted
Immediately Play after Inserted.

If this option is checked, WINCDP will start to play CD audio whenever a compact disc is inserted.This option is useful if you have a schedule utility which will automatically load WINCDP at a certain time and WINCDP will start to play CD audio at that time.


Restore Position

If this option is checked, WINCDP will restore itself to the position you close WINCDP last time.This option is useful if you care about the arrangement or settings of your windows environment.WINCDP will set its upper left corner to the position you close WINCDP and change its height to the expanded or collapsed size depending on the Show Full Dialog option.


Show Full Dialog

If this option is checked, WINCDP will be displayed at the expanded size and disable the Set button.That is, WINCDP will expand the Option Dialog Box and disable Set button to ensure that there is no chance for users to collapse the Option Dialog Box.

See Also: Buttons Overview


Show Edit Box on New Disc

If this option is checked, WINCDP will display an Edit dialog box and query users the textual information whenever a new compact disc is inserted. You can turn this option off and accept the default strings as textual information.

This option will be disabled if the Add Every New Disc is not checked.


Add Every Disc to Database

Some users complain that their database contains too many discs information that they dont want to add. So, I added a new option for users to decide that whether the information of a disc should be added to database or not. If this option is not checked, all the information of a new disc will be queued but not save to database. A confirm-dialog-box will show up when users try to edit database.

If this options is not checked, WINCDP will disable the Show Edit Box on New Disc since users dont want to add every disc at all.


Sleep

WINCDP is now added a sleep function. Users can force WINCDP to close after a specified period of time. This option can incorporate with a schedule utility which will automatically load WINCDP at a certain time and WINCDP will close itself after a specified period.

This option is not fully tested. In fact I finished this option in a hurry and I had tested it triple times. It roughly works.


Always on Top

If this option is checked, WINCDP will place itself at the topmost position and will not be hidden by other applications.


Shut off Music

If this option is checked, WINCDP will shut off music on exiting. With this option unchecked, you can still enjoy music even if WINCDP has been closed.


What is Shareware

Shareware is a policy that gives users an opportunity to try an application out before purchasing it.  WINCDP is an application bases on this policy and allows users to try all the functions before registering it.

There is a special association named Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP). I am not a member of it. If you want more detailed information of it, you can write to the following address.

Sites that Mirror CICA

** Mirror Sites to the CICA Ftp Collection

Several other Internet archives "mirror" the CICA collection; that is,

they maintain an exact mirror image of the files contained here on

their own machine.  One of the major benefits of mirror sites is that

you can select a site close to home.  This will generally increase the

speed and reliability of connections for those folks overseas.

One word of caution: The information below is ALWAYS subject to

change.  It has been VERY DIFFICULT keeping up with the comings and

goings of mirror sites.  (As of this writing (Wed Mar 23 1994), there

are more mirror sites that I know of, but haven't had the time to add

them to this file.  Please stay tuned.)
