PLAYER SETUP

This is the general strategy to set up a player to use JeFCo:
If the player supports connecting CDDB through a proxy, choose JeFCo as this proxy. In that case the setting of the CDDB Server in the players configuration is not used. JeFCo is catching all requests and uses its own settings.
If proxy settings are not supportet by the player JeFCo itself may be set up as CDDB or CDDBP Server.

Here are detailed descriptions of the setup process for some players. It is assumed that JeFCo runs on the local machine 'localhost' and is using it's default ports. The setup procedure for players not on this list should be similar.

In this file locate the section '[CDDA/Line Input Driver]'.
