How do you change the media player in SysMetrix?

Tuesday, November 13, 2007 by mrigg94 | Discussion: Customization Software

Sorry if this is in the wrong place but you know the media players in the sysmetrix docks? It always opens the wrong program for playing music files. I want it to open and run off of iTunes but I just don't know how. Can someone help please? Thanks in advance.

from the SysMetrix Documentation:


"That's because SysMetrix finds out which media player you have associated with .mp3 files, and executes that - which explains why WMP is started up correctly. However, SysMetrix uses the WinAmp2 API to control media players, so currently the supported players are WinAmp2, WinAmp5, QCD Player, CoolPlayer, and Foobar 2000 to a limited extent. I chose to implement that, as it works fantastically with the millions of users who are currently using WinAmp2, as well as those using my favorite media player, QCD Player."

For the answer to your question about military time/ normal time - read SysMetrix Documentation/Formatting text

Look in the folder where your Sysmetrix program is installed (default location would be C:/Program files/Sysmetrix). Look for the file named sysmetrix.chm - or you could just do a local search for that file. That's the document that would tell you everything you could ever need to know about using sysmetrix, modifying themes and making themes.

Hope this helps!
