Subject: CD-ROM Slide Show of CED Caddies

Hello All:

Some of you who have the VideoDisc Collector's Guide CD-ROM have requested
specific instructions for using a macro program to display the caddy
photographs as a continuous, automatic slide show on the computer monitor
when it's not in use. I've evaluated several of the shareware programs on
the internet, and wrote up specific instructions for these two programs,
both of which are available for download:

KeyQuencer Lite for the Macintosh
http://www.binarysoft.com/

Macro Express for Windows 95/98/NT
http://www.macros.com/

The step-by-step instructions to set up the slide show are on the CED Magic
CD-ROM Support page:



http://www.cedmagic.com/home/cd-rom-support.html

The slide show runs by simply having the macro program automatically click
the mouse button at a regular time interval specified when the macro is set
up. With the mouse pointer properly positioned over one of the links on any
of the caddy images pages, they will cycle slide show fashion until the
macro completes or is terminated. For example, if the macro is set to click
the mouse 1709 times at 10 second intervals, the slide show will display
all the front sides of the 1709 titles in the database when the mouse
pointer is positioned over the "Next Title" button. With these settings the
slide show would take about 4 3/4 hours to complete.

Subject: Re: CED Porno?

Now that's an interesting question concerning what level of gratuity 
made it on to CED format...

There are not any real porn movies, but I've had some fairly raunchy 
titles pass through my hands.  The most provocative was probably 
Last Tango in Paris, which I believe was originally rated X.  If it was 
released today it would probably just be an R.   The original 
Emanuelle movie was released on CED, but it's heavily edited, 
perhaps more for time than for content.. I'm not sure.  One that was 
surprisingly dirty that I hadn't heard of before was "Emily" starring 
Koo Stark, who might have had some career track if her scenes 
weren't removed from Star Wars.  Her consolation prize was a 
small part in "Electric Dreams" if you remember that one!

They have several disks from Playboy also.  I have one of them, 
which is very enjoyable for the early 80's music and culture that is 
sandwiched in between blond girls dancing in splashing water in 
ridiculous settings.
