- Welcome to CDinaBox Version 1.66 for OS/2 2.x and above April 1996.
-
- This is a program to play audio CD's using MMPM/2.
-
- The only files required to run the program are CDinaBox.exe and CDinaBox.hlp
- This program will generate 2 files in the same directory as CDinaBox.exe.
- They are CDBox.Dat and CDinaBox.ini . MMPM/2 must be installed on the system
- first. CDBoxOut.CMD file can be used to remove CDinaBox from your hard disk.
- It will also remove the entry from the OS2.INI file.

-
- What's New.
- - Bug fix. Some people had problems with Icons disappearing after using
- the Property Notebooks.
- - Changed the program so that when it can not attach to the CD-Rom device
- it will display the Help Window with some information on common problems.
- - Fast Back Button ( Skip Back Menu Option ) will now go to the start of
- the current track if you are after the first 5 seconds or to the previous
- track if you are within the first 5 seconds.
-
- Installation.
- To install the program just copy the CDinaBox.exe and CDinaBox.hlp files
- to a directory of your choice and drag a program template from the
- template folder on the desktop to the location you want CDinaBox to be.
-
- Upgrade Notes.
- If you are upgrading from a version prior to 1.5 then the first time you
- use each of the Control Panel's you will have to go to the system menu
- ( Top Left hand icon on the Control Panel ) and select "Default Size"
- so that the Control Panel will be redrawn to the new slightly bigger size.
-
- If you had a version of CDinaBox prior to 1.4 you can use the conversion
- program, CDBoxcvt.exe, to convert your CDinaBox.dat file to the new format so
- it can be read by the program. To run the conversion program just open an
- OS/2 command line and go to the same directory as CDinaBox.dat and run
- CDBoxcvt.exe /? for instructions.
