Strange stuff going on here. Right here. Look here.

[Bob Baddeley]

I've got an MCI control set to CDAudio, so I have a CD player in my program. It has next and back visible and enabled, as well as play, pause, stop, and eject. Here's what's strange:

1.) I load another form and the player still plays, but when I go back to the form with the CD player, all the buttons are disabled.

2.) It seems that the thing skips tracks. I was playing a normal music CD, but it skipped a bunch of tracks when I pushed next or previous, and it only played the same ones. For example, it would only play 1,2,5,15,87,90. Is there a shuffle setting? Is there any way to get around this? It's kind of important that it goes in order. Help!

3.) It turns out the skipping thing isn't happening, but something odd is up with that. Another problem is that the stop button only functions as a pause button. When I push stop, it should stop the CD and pushing play again would start at the beginning, but it only pauses and play resumes from where it was stopped. What??

thanks in advance for your help

I had o problem like that (not as strange) and I had to creat my own CD player with the MCI control but the buttons were my own.
