Jarek, I want to use audio CDs and recorded MP3s on the hard disk in Jeff Carmen's ezPIR as feedback. Is there a separate CD Player element, and a separate MP3 Player element? How do I set it up just to play audio CDs in BioEra Pro, or just to play MP3s, as feedback?

The most commonly used way to play mp3 is to take SoundFileReader and connect it to PCMAudioPlayer.

There is no dedicated element for CD music playback. I think it should be possible using the VideoFilePlayer (it handles both video and sound), but I am not sure at this moment, I have not used this media for a long time.

I have tried switching the CODECs listed in the element for video, but the DVD element only senses when a DVD disk is loaded, not CD ROM. I have the Cyberware and WMP loaded and working, and the Cyberware stuff is only set up for audio playback, anyway. The Intervideo Codec 8 that Jeff uses does not sense the CD in the caddy, at all.
