Configuring for Use with Other Games and Music

Apart from using the peripherals with amBX™ enabled games, you can also experience the effects of the Philips
amBX™ PC Gaming lighting Peripherals when you are

playing other PC games

or when you are

listening to

music

via your Windows Media Player.

All Philips amBX™ PC Gaming Peripherals, except the Wrist Rumbler and the Fans, are used to create an
overwhelming light show that interacts with your game or song. To make this feature active, you need to:

Enable the amBX plug ins

in the View Menu of your Windows Media Player;

Manage your audio settings

by using the standard Microsoft® facility or the software that came

with your audio card;

Run the amBX™Application Manager

(this means that the Application Manager icon

needs to be visible in the taskbar );

Enable the Gaming or Music feature

in the

amBX™ Application Manager.

Please note that this feature is only applicable when you have the Windows Media Player installed on your PC.
The software does not interact with other multimedia players.

Note
