What's new in AutoPlay Express 4

Finally we are happy to announce to you the major upgrade of our AutoPlay Express product - version 4. Changes which have been made in the product turns it into a complete comprehensive solution for producing fully ready-to-use autoplay CD and DVD discs. Here's a list of the main changes and improvements we made in version 4:
  • Multi-objects editing
    You may select several objects and edit their properties together. A great timesaving feature.

  • Multiple actions per one mouse click supported
    You can now perform more than one action when an object is clicked. For example, now you can open a document and then play a sound with just one mouse click.

  • Improved and enlarged set of 'on mouse click' actions
    We've added more then 10 new actions. Actions are now structured by functionality groups.

  • New multimedia objects added
    Added Flash Player and Media Player objects. A Flash Player is used to play flash animations inside the autoplay menu window and the Media Player is used to play video files. Note that multimedia content will be played when you run the menu. While you are editing the project the players are temporary replaced by image rectangles.

  • Web Browser improved
    Now Web Browser content is displayed even while you're designing the project.

  • "Run" - new ultimate feature for effective menu testing
    This feature is located in the menu Project -- Run and it allows you to run an autoplay menu even when you are designing it. Due to special technologies the autoplay menu will work just like it does on the CD or DVD disc so you may effectively test and debug it. Disc burning is no longer required for testing an autoplay menu.

  • Changed Virtual CD-ROM idea
    Version 4 introduces a totally new way of binding an autoplay CD menu with files on the CD disc. Now Virtual CD-ROM represents a real virtual disc layout. Initially the layout has no files in it so you will need to fill it with files you are going to write on your CD. Then while editing actions in the project you can select files from the Virtual CD-ROM only.
    The Virtual CD-ROM gives you the unique ability to create a complete structure of the CD disc you are going to burn, similar to many CD-burning programs.

  • Added CD/DVD burning feature
    Now when publishing the project you can burn the final CD or DVD disc right from our AutoPlay Express product. The menu you've designed and the files you've added to the Virtual CD-ROM will be burned to the CD media and you'll get a fully ready-to-use autoplay CD! There's no need for additional CD-burning software at all and you are free from the headaches of manually moving files to proper places on the disc to keep the CD menu working correctly. All this is handled automatically by the AutoPlay Express internal CD-burner.
