Questions / Re: How to make inserted CD autoplay

@psychoadept

Thanks so much!  That fixed it.  Now MusicBee is available in the list of apps  to use as the Music Player default.  When I set the default to MusicBee and inserted a CD it asked what I wanted to do with the CD and "playing the songs with MusicBee was one of the options.  I selected that and MusicBee started up and began to play the songs.

One more question if you don't mind.  One thing I liked about iTunes was that you had the option of either playing the songs or just showing the songs on the CD.  This was nice if I wanted to rip the songs instead of playing them.  Can I do this in MusicBee?  If not it is no big deal as I can just stop the songs playing and then rip the CD.

Thanks,
Bill

Thanks for your replies!

@Bizy

That is the problem.  MusicBee is not listed in the list of apps so I can't select it.  Shouldn't it have been added to this list by MusicBee when I installed it?

@psycoadept

I ran it as administrator and it still doesn't show up in the list of apps that I can set as default in Settings/Apps/Default Apps/Player.  What is system menu (general preferences)?

Edit:  I just noticed that MusicBee also does not appear in Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\AutoPlay.

Questions / How to make inserted CD autoplay

« on: June 27, 2019, 06:54:31 PM »

I just downloaded MusicBee and really like it.  One question though.  When I insert a CD it does not autoplay.  MusicBee does not even appear in the apps listed to use as the default action for autoplaying a CD.  How can I get this to work?  I am on Windows 10 1903.  I downloaded MusicBee version 3.3 from the forum post.  I searched around on the forum for a solution, but couldn't find one.

Thanks,
Bill
