# ▶️ Opening and Playing

## Opening the Vehicle Music System

1. Enter a networked vehicle.
2. Press `J` or use `/carplay`.
3. The Vehicle Music System interface opens without blocking the surrounding game view.
4. Paste a supported URL.

The driver always has full control.

Passengers can view the active session. Their control permissions depend on the driver's **Passengers ON/OFF** setting.

## Play Now

**Play Now** immediately starts the submitted URL.

If another track is already playing, it is replaced by the new track.

## Add to Queue

**Add to Queue** adds the submitted URL to the current queue without interrupting the track that is already playing.
