Dear William,

Seeing you ask.....

Without being rigorous it will:

=> Rapidly search nominated MULTIPLE specified directory locations for specified music and play it in order or randomnly.  e.g.
search on "2", abba, roll etc - whatever for many hits and play them randomnly....or much more specifically...And load Media Player
up.....  Media player will still be looking while you're already playing with MP3Detective.....  You can load up many many songs and
leave it to play....probably a little more than most need....Or find the single track you want fast....

=> Place a list on the desktop of all music files in specified directories - in txt or html hyperlink format  (Probably import more
easily into access if that's still required...)

=> More easily allow the management of favorites (Right click the search results)

=> I think of it as a front end to Media Player, (which I don't think is specific to XP?)

=> Try it!

I am not sure where MP4's came into this.....

I hope that keeps you all swinging!

Kind regards,
David Hingston

...what does this do that WinXP's Media Player won't?
