### 3. Onscreen Fundamentals

KMedia usage is simple. Start the program and drag a WAV file into the window. The file will be played immediately. If the file does not get played your sound device might be busy.

### 3.1 Buttons

The meaning of all buttons should be well known. If you can operate a tape deck or CD Player, you should have no problem in using KMedia. Only applicable buttons are usable. For example, ejecting a CD makes sense, but not ejecting a WAV Media.

### 3.2 Multiple media players

You can open multiple KMedia windows. Either by using File->New view or by starting another media player through kpanel.

If you want KMedia to use a specific output device (e.g. soundcard) you can set it in kmedia's configuration dialog. Attention: This is currently unimplemented!!! You can set the device using numbers. 0 means the default device, 1 the primary, 2 the secondary device and so on.

### 3.3 Key Bindings

KMedia honors the following key binding.

- `Control-N` Open new media player window
