I would like an applescript to automatically set the volume of a
computer and start a preinserted CD at a
given time or frequency.
I know of only two oxen (scripting additions) for controlling a CD.
One is AudioCDgh. The other is GTQ scripting library. I have used the
former and not the latter. The former has a minor (non fatal) bug.
The free version of SoundJam is scriptable, and can play CDs, but I
have not tried writing any scripts for it.
I am still a rookie, but my very first AppleScript project a few
years back was writing scripts to control the AppleCD Audio Player
via FileMaker Pro. They simply issue the basic commands
(start/stop/next/etc).
I'm not experienced enough to offer a complete solution for "a
background music system" but if you detail a bit what you want to do
perhaps the list members can steer you a bit better.
