BinaryWork Media OCX 1.0 - VB5(SP3) version 

( VB6 version is available also )

ActiveX OCX to play any media file , and it include wav , avi , mid , 
and depending on the drivers and codecs installed it can play mp3 
, mov , mpg , asx and other media , extended MCI capabilities 
, compatible with Win95/98/NT4.0/NT5.0 , internal volume control 
, ability to change the playback speed , others extended multi-media capabilies , 
VB5 and VB6 versions are available

***************

First of all : We have another control that can play MP3 files 
without the requirement of any other file in the end user 
machine , the only file required is the OCX , if you want to 
play only MP3 files , then we recommend the BW MP3 OCX 1.8.0 
that is available in this link:
http://binarywork.hypermart.net/bwmp3.htm

The unique advantage of the BW Media OCX 1.0 over the BW MP3 OCX 1.8.0 
is the possibility to load multiples MP3s in the same project at 
same time without conflicts , but it requires the latest 
DirectX and Microsoft Media Player installed in order to work

And it may not play multiples instances in Win95 or Winnt 4.0

However , the BW MP3 OCX 1.8.0 can play one instance without 
problem in Win95/98/NT40 and it dont require any codec or DirectX 
installed in order to work , only the control is required

***************

Features :

This control is using the default Media drivers available in the 
operating system , then depending on the drivers that are available 
it will change their possibilities

This is the description of the playback capabilities involving 
multiples operating systems

Win95/98/NT40 : avi , mid , wav

Win95/98/NT40 with Netshow Player 2.0 or Microsoft Media Player 
installed : mp3 , mp2 , mpg , mov , avi , mid , wav

In the case of Win98 you can play multiples instances of the control 
at same time in the same project without problem , and the DirectX 6.1 
is recommended to more playback capabilities

The Netshow 2.0 is part of the distribution of the Win98 , then you only 
need to enable it in the control panel in order to play MP3 files with 
the control

************

About the BW Media 1.0 OCX : The control is a derivative work of the 
Maquisistem Midia MP3 OCX that we have developed in 1996 , this 
new version dont have the old mixer anymore , lots of bugs fixeds 
involving movies , enhancements in the MCI capabilities , now you 
can verify the possibilities regarding the file loaded , ability 
to change the border of the control , ability to catch the right 
and left mouse clicks in the control , ability to handle the 
media file as miliseconds or frames ( if possible ) , the 
internal volume was improved and it will remember the last 
position , minor bugs fixeds ,  the rest of the control remain unchanged
