- Enhanced CD Menu Options
-
- If an Enhanced CD has been loaded into your CD-ROM drive, then CD-Runner
- will automatically identify it and allow you to access its unique features.
- To access the CD-Runner Enhanced CD Menu application, click on the ECD
- button (play mode button) or click directly on the Enh-CD indicator when
- the CD Player faceplate is on screen. If the CD Player is running (playing
- music) it will be automatically stopped and the Enhanced CD Menu application
- will appear.
-
- The following options are available using the Enhanced CD Menu:
-
-
- ENHANCED CD PROGRAM
-
- Click this button to run the main Enhanced CD program file. This program
- usually allows you to access all of the movie and picture files on the CD.
- Since some Enhanced CD main programs will only work if you are using 256
- colors, you may have to temporarily change your video setup using the
- control panel to run it. You may also choose to run the movie players and
- picture viewers directly using the options below.
-
- When using an enhanced audio CD ("Enh-CD" or ECD), if you attempt to run
- a "QuickTime" Movie file off of the CD, you may see a message indicating
- that your color depth (or number of colors used by your video board)is not
- set correctly to display the movie file. Due to space limitations,
- QuickTime movie files are usually limited to 256 colors. If your current
- video settings are set for greater than this (e.g. 16-bit HiColor or
- 24-bit & 32-bit TrueColor modes), then you must change to 256-color mode
- to display the movie. Fortunately, Microsoft has a new utility available
- free which allows you to quickly change video modes named "QuickRes". This
- extremely useful utility may be downloaded from the Microsoft BBS
- (206-936-6735), or from the Microsoft Web page on the internet
- (WWW.MICROSOFT.COM).
