WELCOME TO VISITRAX!

VisiTrax is designed to help you organize your entire entertainment library.
Whether you make a living as a DJ or just want a fast and easy way to find
material, you'll find VisiTrax to be a valuable tool.

VisiTrax lets you specify your own names for categories and media formats
as you need them.  With one fast and easy-to-use program, you can organize
all your CDs, cassettes, phonograph records, boxes of singles, DVDs, video
tapes, music files, and so on.

VisiTrax uses tabbed sheets to provide different views into your library.
The main view can be used to list all tracks, regardless of their location,
or to list only those tracks meeting your specified "filtering" criteria.

Other views include volumes (CD titles, etc.), volume contents (e.g. tracks
belonging to one CD), and playlists (lists you can build quickly with tagged
tracks to be played, including their start times).

To simplify data entry for CDs, VisiTrax includes a CD Player tabsheet with
built-in CDDB support.  With this feature, you can populate your own library
with ease, just by inserting each CD and letting VisiTrax fetch its track
titles from a CDDB server via the Internet.  This can save a LOT of typing!

Additional features:  simplified browsing and data entry; multi-level
undelete; printable volume lists, volume content lists, and playlists;
efficient relational database engine built in, with fully automatic list
management; context-sensitive Help and optional pop-up hints.

VisiTrax is a professional Win32 application coded in C++ for speed.  No
special run-time libraries are required.

VisiTrax is available in two editions, both of which operate with the same,
easy-to-use look and feel:

  VisiTrax Lite, our freeware version, is ideal for anyone with a fairly
  modest media library (less than 100 CDs, albums, and tapes).
  [VisiTrax Lite also can be used to realistically evaluate how well our
  commercial version can work for you, even with large libraries.]

  VisiTrax Standard Edition, our commercial version, is designed to support
  large media libraries (1000's of CDs for example).  In addition, registered
  users of VisiTrax Standard Edition can save and import their library data
  in an optional text file format.  (The text file format specification is
  published on our web site.)

  VisiTrax Standard Edition is still only $18.00.  This one-time fee entitles
  you to free updates to all future versions.

VisiTrax, in its original pre-installed form (vsxsetup.exe or the .zip file
containing it together with this ReadMe.txt file) is freely distributable.
No restriction is made concerning fees for copying, transmission, or storage.


INSTALLATION (Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000):

To install VisiTrax on your computer, just run the vsxsetup.exe setup program
from any temporary location you like.  The program will ask you where you want
VisiTrax installed, and the installation itself takes very little time.

The easiest way to begin the setup is to double-click on "vsxsetup.exe" either
from the Windows Explorer (if you've already unzipped everything), or directly
from WinZip (or a similar unzipping program).

If you have an earlier version of VisiTrax installed, you can safely install
this version over it.  Any data files you created will be left intact.


UNINSTALL:

VisiTrax can be removed cleanly via Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs).  This
is the standard method for removing today's 32-bit Windows applications.
