(About the author)
 
     NEW IMPROVED Player / Recorder.<br><br> This player / recorder can play and record CD's that have both programs and audio tracks on it, also know as hybrid CD's. It calculates and displays the time for each audio track with an accuracy of + or - 2 seconds. Other CD players I have seen, reads the time for track one is as the total CD time, which of course is not the correct track time.<br><br> This player has the following abilities:<br> ----------------------------------------<br> 1. Auto detects hybrid CD's.<br> 2. Peek Meter Scope (SoundBlaster Live Only).<br> 3. Plays audio CD's.<br> 4. Change Tracks forward and backwards.<br> 5. Rewind and Forward by 5 seconds.<br> 6. Open the CD door.<br> 7. Close the CD door.<br> 8. Reads and displays the CD's ID number.<br> 9. Reads and displays the total tracks of the CD.<br> 10. Reads and displays the total time of the CD.<br> 11. Records Audio CD's (WAV format).<br> 12. With the proper sound card, you can set the recording audio format (6 k/sec 8 bit mono thru 192 k/sec 16 bit stereo).<br> 13. Displays the correct track time even on hybrid CD's (audio CD's with programs on them).<br> 14. Handles multiple CD ROM drives (IDE or SCSI, or mixed).<br> 15. Auto-play a CD.<br> 16. Repeat Track.<br> 17. Repeat Entire CD.<br> 18. Random Tracks.<br> 19. Select tracks to play.<br> 20. When playing and recording an Audio CD, a graphic of notes shows and dances. Not to the music however.<br> 21. Bug fixes.<br><br> Read the ReadMe.Txt file for further information.<br> Credits: Peak Meter code was derived from Rich Cain's Peak Meter sample.<br> EXE, OCX, and full source code are included in the zip.

The code on this is great.  I have one 
complaint though, the interface.  It is 
very big and bulky, unorganized, and 
just ugly.  I realized all of your 
programs were like this.  You need to 
make it a lot smaller and try to stick 
with the same colors (the colors you 
use dont even match each other).  Dont 
take this feedback the wrong way 
,however. I am only trying to help. 
Remember,  programs are never at their 
full potential when the interface is 
sloppy.

I think the interface is kind of big, 
but the colors are fine.  My complaint 
is that half of PSC is made up of cd 
players, mp3 players, movie players, 
there are way to many of them and Im 
sick of seeing all of them.

Nick Smith:  How many CD players on PSC 
read a hybrid CD correctly and allow 
you to record tracks?

nitrix: How is the interface 
unorganized and why do you call it 
ugly?  If you installed the font the 
text should be correct.  The program is 
designed for 1024 X 768 X 16M colors 
but 800X600 looks ok too.  The colors 
on the buttons do not match for a 
reason…each one has a different 
function.  Your comment ‘when the 
interface is sloppy’ is your 
opinion.  I had a few people sit down 
and look at the design and the 
functionality of the CD Player/Recorder 
and they thought it was great.  Also, 
if you think it was easy to make this, 
think again.  Normal CD’s are 
easy to get the time for each track.  
But hybrid CD’s are another 
story.  I have seen nothing like what I 
did anywhere on PSC or any other VB 
site.  There may be such a thing on 
other sites but I have not found them.  
Recording a track the way my recorder 
does it also is different.  Mine works 
with IDE and SCSI drives and it also 
handles multiple CD drives too. So, in 
conclusion, I do not understand what 
the heck you are talking about.

One word: Bravo
Seventy-Six Words: I 
like RJ's style of 
programming 
including iface designing. 
It's 
something new. If you don't like 
it 
then you don't understand what 
unique 
is. This is a well done program 
once 
again by RJ. After 15 years of 
programming, this guy still shows us 
how it's done and lets us learn off 
of 
him. Not that many people like RJ 
would 
do this especially when he can 
be 
making money off of this. 
Thanks RJ once again,
-Mike

The process is: You record the music in 
WAV format.  You then can use a WAV 2 
MP3 converter program to convert the 
WAV into a much smaller MP3 file.  If 
you wish to burn a personal CD then you 
have to use the software that came with 
your CD-RW Drive.

A lttle self confident of waht you 
have, and that it's the best on PSC?  
Actually, I don't see why every has all 
these music and CD players.  I mean, 
Winamp and Windows Media Player is 
fine.  And I do think the layout is 
kina slopy and big.  I think the grey 
background with the white text boxes 
and black text looks better.

WinAmp does not play CDs and neither 
does Media Player. They play 
MP3s.
How many CD Players can record 
tracks?  From what I have seen very few 
and mine is FREE.
Self confident of 
what I have?  I take pride in what I 
program and design.  Its a shame that 
some do not, but instead they attempt 
to pick at or on others to make their 
inadequacies seem smaller…  If 
you want to call ‘taking pride in 
my work’ confident then by all 
means use that word.
One should use 
“in my opinion” a little 
more.  Media player might be fine with 
you but not for all.  Some like a 
little different approach to playing 
music and want something different.  
This is called choice.

I personally don't see why some of you 
guys thinks his layout is sloppy.  It 
might be that it's not as good as 
winamp, but he made this all by 
himself, unlike winamp.  And atleast he 
is trying to have an original look.

this is trivial really, but i was

have.  i have version 2.64 and it will 
play cd's.  you're program is still 
great, i just thought i would throw 
that bit of trivia in.

As I found out WinAmp does play CD's 
and can record tracks as well.
Thanks 
for the positive comment.  If you have 
download other programs I have designed 
you will notice I use the same style of 
screen, CUI (Common User Interface).

I haven't downloaded your update yet 
but I think your last version was 
excellent, I use it all the time and I 
love the interface, there was a couple 
of small bugs in the last one which no 
doubt you have addressed by now. (I 
couldn't fix em myself)
I did make one 
adjustment to your app and that was to 
drop it into the tray instead of it 
being on top all the time- much better. 
Looking forward to viewing your updated 
version.
my vote ~excellent~

Man kickin app man!  Sweetness in the 
most sweet sense...  Anyway...  Have 
you done anything with like a mixer 
that can control bass and treble?  I 
have found many good one's but none 
that work with a soundblaster sound 
card so they are practically useless to 
me and others...  If you have lemmee 
know and where I can get a copy because 
I really just would like the source 
code to look at and use in one of my 
own apps...  Still excellant job!

Can't understand the negative 
preoccupation with your interface, if 
they want Michaelangelo they should 
visit a graphics site....anyway 
functionality is what matters and the 
more the better. Please allow me to 
leave this message here that others may 
see it too. I am trying to build a wav 
recording program that allows the 
simultaneous record and playback of a 
wav...like Cubase. If you or anyone 
else are close to this and would like 
to share the info, I would greatly 
appreciate it. Keep up the good work.  
And shame on the critics of your 
GUI.

Sheesh! If you people don't like the 
interface, then don't look at it. You 
can always copy and paste the code into 
an application to your liking. There's 
no rule (and RJ is not insistant on it) 
saying you MUST use the interface the 
author designed. I think it looks cool, 
even though my screen is at 800X600, it 
still looks good.

Hey guys. Stop knocking this guy over

this so far, has to be one of the most 
usfull programs I've seen. Keep up the 
good work RJ, and I like your iface 
(Reminds me of a Star Trek, LCARS

Hey. Stop commenting on the

Just look at the jist of 
the program.
That is where the beauty 
can be found.
If you don't like the 
interface, change it. Or create the 
interface to be skinnable and upload it 
back to PSC.
