Autoplay MPG file from CD
I have searched Google, but was not successful in
finding proper solution. Thanks in advance for any hint. XP Pro. Sp2 Burned & finalized a CD with one MPG file on it. I added (copied) MplayerC.exe and an AutoRun.INF on root of CD that looks like: [Autorun] Open = Mplayerc.exe "Banquet-2007.mpg" /Play /Close [I know command line switches for classic player are different than those of Windows Mplayer2] When I insert the CD in the drive, MplayerC.exe starts but then gives this message at the bottom: "File not found". This is interesting, because the file "Banquet-2007.mpg" is on the same CD. I think (guess) Mplayerc is looking for the file in my PC root directory C: and that is why it can not find it. I can not give explicit address of CD root because if I use it on someone else's PC, he may name his CD drive something different than mine. How can I re write the inf file so mplayerc looks for it on the CD and not else where. Best Regards, Mike |

Maybe it will give you some ideas: How to create your own free CD autorun for HTML and most file types. http://www.softwarepatch.com/tips/autorun.html Open the autorun.bat file in notepad and replace index.html with Banquet-2007.mpg Burn: autorun.bat autorun.inf Banquet-2007.mpg on a Data CD. Place the disk in your CD drive and It should launch in WMP.
