But there’s a way to capture some of that magic even today, using a free utility.
Read on to see how!
Getting The program
We’re going to use a freely-available program called CD Art Display.
So the first thing you better do is download and roll out the app itself.
Here’s adirect link to version 2.0.1, the most recent one.
Setting Things Up
once you nail CD Art Display installed, run it.
You should see a black, blank CD cover.
Right-click it and select Options.
Some players (such as Foobar2000) require an extra component on the player side.
But other players, such as Windows Media Player, don’t require any extra steps.
That’s what we’re going to use for the purpose of this article.
For Windows Media Player, this is C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe.
Winamp will probably be C:\Program Files\Winamp, etc.
Now save the options by clicking the disk icon on the top-right corner, and terminate the Options window.
So now let’s see if the system works!
Additional Functionality
CD Art Display has quite a few other tricks up its sleeve.
To browse and download skins, go to theSkin Gallery.
