| Posted: | | | | I believe it should be -
Launch the program.
Right click, select "Configuration"
Select "Player" tab
Click "Advanced"
Click "File Association" tab
Uncheck "Play Automatically upon inserting disc" | | | Last edited: by Ardos |

| Posted: | | | | This behavior can also be Operating System Depended for XP:
Open Windows ExplorerRight-click on the dvd drive that has autoplay enabledselect PropertiesTab AutoPlayin the selection box select DVD-moviebox below selection box select the action you wantdo this for every type of media you put in that drive
this procedure could be different in Vista open the Vista help and search for autoplay | | | Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted.

If it were up to me, I would have left in the old XP method listed above, and also added the new Vista method. But hey, my name is not Bill. In Vista, there is a new Control Panel applet called AutoPlay. There are individual options for inserting movie DVDs, Blu-Ray, HD DVD, cd audio, blank media of all types, games, pics, audio files, etc. etc. roughly 20 different choices. You can set any of the 20 choices to your preference, or set all of them at once. DD. |
