Hey all
Here's a quicky...

I'm using cda.exe to autorun when the cd in inserted.
i have zoomplayer on the cdr too and need to know how to make zoomplayer play a file when the button for it it pressed.
What I mean is, what is the switch used in the command line.
For example for Windows media player i was using....

[autorun]
open=start mplayer2.exe /fullscreen /play /close \xxxxx.avi
icon=xxxxx.ico

This started the movie straight away, which was not quite what i was looking for, but did the trick.

I hate M$ so i what the same thing from zoomplayer if possible.

ANY feedback is welcome :)

Hi,

I've been playing with ZoomPlayer recently, and its very good.

As for playing a file when the 'button' is pressed, I'm not sure what you mean, but here's 2 things you can do:

1. try something like this -
[autorun]
open=start zplayer.exe /f xxxxx.avi
icon=xxxxx.ico

(the /f means fullscreen; also, you probably need the full path to zplayer specified, which makes it hard, since everyone might have it in different places)

2. In Zplayer (and in windows) you can set up zplayer to be the file associated with mpg's, avi's, etc. That way, when you double click on the filename, zplayer will start with it. Check Zplayers options screen for details

Good Luck

Hey, thanks for the reply :)

Ok, I'm not using an autorun.inf to run the divx movie when the disc is inserted. What I am using is an autorun application called "CDA" Now, with this app, it loads an interface that you can customize, including buttons that you can assign to different things on the disc.
Here's the bit here I am stuck. I assign a button to "Zplayer.exe", (which is on the same disc) so it will play on ANY PC. You can also add "Program Parameters" to the command line. This is where I need to tell zoomplayer to open the movie, again, on the same disc.
You can add switches to the path of zoomplayer. I need to know what switch will work

I have try this many times, and my head is wrecked:confused:

Thanks for feedback and if anyone else can tackle this one, please let me know as zoomplayer is the best plyer I have found so far.

Captain.
