Collections require a quick hard drive installation. To
minimise space required, only the RadioROM application and
Java Virtual Machine software are installed.
The process is semi-automated and only requires a few clicks
using the Install Anywhere programme. One restart, click
the desktop icon, and RadioROM opens playing music.
The music files, which are in mp3 format, are automatically
accessed by the application from the CD-ROM disk - which
needs to be in the drive at all times for playback.
Integrated within the application is a sophisticated database
programme which manages the visual and audio content and
several control parameters.
The fields of information within this database facilitate
RadioROM's comprehensive functionality. The database cannot
be accessed or edited by the user - it is sealed within the
player programme.
This (Version 1.01) release of RadioROM is only PC compatible.
A Mac OSX version is currently in development and scheduled
for release mid 2003.
