The Multimedia Player
Until now, a variety of programs for the playback of CDs, videos and other media was
available under Multimedia in the Accessories folder of the Windows start menu. These
have now been succeeded by the Microsoft Multimedia Player. It handles the most com-
mon multimedia formats, all under one common user interface—regardless of whether
the data is coming from the Internet or the local hard disk. The Multimedia Player is
responsible for the playback of RealAudio and RealVideo, as well as WAV, AVI and
Quicktime files.
After the installation, the file extensions of media files are permanently associated with
the Multimedia Player. You can thus double-click the media files in the Windows
Explorer or My Computer folder to conveniently launch the Player and start the playback.
The use of the Multimedia Player is intuitive, and it includes a comprehensive help func-
tion to clarify questions or solve problems while working with the program.
Video playback or Internet live radio: The
Microsoft Multimedia Player handles all
common multimedia formats.
