CD Player application should appear
automatically and begin playing the first audio track. If the interface

CD Player application.
The CD Player interface acts similar to a
standard CD player, with play, pause, and stop functions. There is even
a sliding bar that allows you to adjust the volume. Press the
Next track and Previous Track
buttons to skip forward or backward one track; you can also use the
Track List drop down menu to select a track from
the available listing.
You can edit the track listings for your CDs by clicking the
Open track editor button. You can also change the
way the application functions by clicking on the Open
Preferences button. Here you can set themes for the player
as well as set the behavior of the CD-ROM drive when you open or quit
the CD Player application.
