- Can you help me? I want to write a simple C program for my PC which will
- allow me to access music off a CD ROM drive. I need to access the music
- by its time index, not the track #. Ideally I will find a C-function which
- can be passed start and stop time information and will commence playing an
- audio CD over the indicated time interval.
-
- If such a function is not readily available, can anyone recommend a source
- (book, magazine article, etc.) from which I might learn how to do what I want?
- I have the CD ROM in my PC and have been informed that what I need to do is
- to communicate with MSCDEX to access the CD drive. If it is not already
- obvious, I have no idea what MSCDEX is. How can I learn about MSCDEX and how
- to use it to access my CD drive?
