Summary0002029: MM should react to Windows XP auto-play features
DescriptionIn Windows XP after some types of action user is presented with a list of applications that can handle that action. MM should get into the list for the following actions:

 Audio device connected - 'Synchronize files with this device' (=start MM)
 Audio CD inserted - 'Play audio CD' (=start MM and play the CD)
 Audio CD inserted - 'Rip audio CD' (=start MM and show ripping dialog)
 MP3 CD inserted - 'Play' (=start MM and start playback of tracks in the root folder)
 Empty CD inserted - 'Burn CD' (=start MM)

This list is based on what's possible to implement and what other applications do (WMP and iTunes).
TagsNo tags attached.

Tested in 898 and:

1) I don't get a pop-up when devices are inserted (I'm assuming that this is because it's been disabled on my machine). Can you confirm?

2) When I insert a CD, there are TWO Play CD entries for MediaMonkey (Play CD, Rip CD, Play CD)!!! There should only be one, no matter how many times MM is installed/uninstalled (My guess is that this is occuring because both Play CD entries are being displayed--the one for Audio CD and the one for MP3 CD).

3) When I insert a blank CD, a 'Burn CD' entry appears, but when the user selects it, MM isn't brought into focus. What should happen is MM should come into focus--nothing else.

4) When I insert an MP3 CD, a 'Play CD' entry appears, but when the user selects it, MM isn't brought into focus and nothing occurs. What should happen is that all the CD contents should play.

1) It can be two things:
 - Not all devices show this pop-up, it's probably driver dependant.
 - You could have already set to ignore this device.
Otherwise it should work just fine.

2) It shouldn't be there, probably just some old remains. In order to fix remove all MM-related keys from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AutoplayHandlers\EventHandlers\PlayCDAudioOnArrival. Then it shouldn't happen again.

3) You probably mean when MM is already running (otherwise it's properly started). This was fixed now by flashing application in taksbar (I couldn't find a way how to bring app window to front).

4) The same as 3) + it should start playback of all items in the root folder of the inserted mp3 cd.
