Re: FLASH: putting Flash in an audio cd release

[Michael Dunn]

I've seen most for both platforms. As far as Mac autostart, I think it depends

on the way the user's computer is set up whether it will autostart or not. This

is an option that a lot of people have turned off because of a virus scare a

while ago. Either way, if it's not an autostart on Mac most Mac users are

accustomed to opening the disc and double clicking an icon to start. If you're

on Mac (and maybe PC) you might look into a utility like Iconaranger (or

something similar) which will allow you to create a series of folders with

images to create a large picture in the disk window (many professional CDs do

this) to give it a polished look. Not sure how this works with PC, though,

interested to know. That way when a Mac user opens the disc they see a nice

presentation before they even start the program. Add some custom icons and

voila!


As a preference, autostart is like having no browser controls. I like more

control. Just a thought.
