1. Description
--------------

This is a simple program designed to launch the Windows Media Player
with the file that you pass it as a parameter. This is useful if you
want to do an autoplay CD-ROM with any media file (AVI, WAV, ...) that
the Media Player can play.

Using this program has two advantages over running the Media Player
directly:

- The program will search for the location of Media Player. This allows
  you to to use an autoplay CD-ROM in other computer although the
  Media Player be installed in a different location.

- This application launch the Media Player in fullscreen mode, and when
  the play of the media file is over, the Media Player is closed.

3. Installation
---------------

Simply copy the program's files to the directory where you want to
store them.

If you want to use this program in an autoplay CD, copy the RunMP2.exe
to the root directory of the CD and include in the Autorun.inf a line
like this:

  open=RunMP2.exe "<FileName>"

where <FileName> is the name of the file that you want to be played by
WMP2. If the file is in a subdirectory of the CD-ROM, you need to
include the relative path in the file name.
