Help needed for the last part

[Anrasp]

Ok ... I'm really new to this. I have created my first Video CD using Virtual Dub, TMPGEnc, and Nero to burn the CD, just as the manual says.

... However when I place the CD in my PC DVD reader it does not autoplay. I have to manually go and look for the DAT file and open it. Is there a way that will allow autoplay as soon as I place the CD in my PC DVD player ?

include a player and an autorun.inf , but Windows Media player could be told to play the file (As above)

If you dont have one, drop me an email

: ( Well the autoplay did'nt work

I copied the nfo file in the root directory
with the following text inside
[autorun]
open=start mplayer2.exe /play /close \MPEGAV\avseq01.dat

Is it because the my Media player target file is this wmplayer.exe instead ? If in the affirmative, my nfo file should contain
[autorun]
open=start wmplayer.exe /play /close \MPEGAV\avseq01.dat

Can someone confirm please ?

If you double click the .dat does it play in media player ? is it associated with .dat file to play them ? Else it might not open in anything or the notepad

This is why people add players... Ill send you one !!
