Using supported music file types
You can play the following types of digital audio
files in My Music. Refer to Windows Media Player
Help for more information about supported file
types.
Playing Music Files in My Music
When you first open Media Center and open the
My Music window, you may not find any music files
listed unless there is a music CD in your CD drive or
unless you have already added audio files to your
Windows Media Player music library.
When you copy music files using Windows Media
Player and your computer is connected to the
Internet, the CD information is copied and displayed
in Media Center and in the Windows Media Player
music library.
If you insert a music CD when Media Center is not
open, a message appears asking what you want to
do. You can select Windows Media Player as your
default audio player. If you have another program
set as the default audio player, Windows opens the
program and begins playing the CD.
