New in 1.1

Added the ability to go to specific Track #s. And made the Name CD window a little easier to use with some nice features to autoedit your CD name.

Description

Sony MegaCD Changer Remote!

Select from a list of your CDs and tell your Sony Changer to play it. CD Lists can be easily imported in Newton Book format.

Also - automatically name your CDs from your Newton. CD Changer 1.1 will "type" in the names of your CDs for you.

How To Import

First, you need a COMMA DELIMINATED TEXT FILE of all your CDs. You MUST have entries for EMPTY slots (no CD in changer). (Click here for an example of my comma deliminated CD List)

For Example:

3 CD List:

1. CDNameX, 2., 3. CDNameY

Then, you must create a Newton Book and MAKE SURE YOU SET THE LONG NAME TO "MyCDList" (case insensitive).

When you first run CD Changer it will build your CD list and save it. After this, you may delete the Newton Book pkg.

Don't own NewtonPress? If you send your TXT file of CDs (in the proper format), I'll generate a NewtonBook for you.

Requirements

So far, this has only been tested on the Sony CX255 and CX250. It will likely work with the 100 disc changer (CX205, I think). Email me if it does or doesn't. Also - this has been formatted and written for PORTRAIT orientation on the MP2x00. It will not fit on the 130, 120, or eMate (in landscape orientation). Sorry... this is just the first release and I just wanted to get it working. If you have interest in running this on other hardware, email me.

Cost

FREE.

Of course, I'd love an email if you do find this useful. It helps me know that my efforts have not gone to waste.

And, of course, donations always welcome, and be sure to check out Scrawl's page (who helped make this possible).
