BinaryWork MP3 OCX 1.0

ActiveX OCX to play MP3 files , and it was ported to VB by BinaryWork Corp. 

Features

With this control you can retrieve any information about a MP3 file

And it includes Bitrate ,Mpeg layer,Sampling rate ,Length ,Actual playback position

And you can set what will be the output to the MP3 file and it can be Wavemapper , DirectSound or a PCMfile

We have added two functions to set directly a slider , with this functions is very easy to setup a MP3 player with a few lines of code 

This OCX was tested in Win95 , Winnt 40 and Win98

And the only file required in your projects is the MP3 ocx , all that the ocxs requires is inside the OCX

The end user dont need to have installed Netshow , Media Player or ActiveMovie 

The only thing that is required in order to play MP3 files is a sound card ;-)

to install the OCX

Extract the 'sample project.zip' file to a empty directory

Known problems

This OCX cannot play multiples MP3 files at same time in some machines

This OCX uses more processor than the Microsoft Media Player and Netshow 3.0 MP3 codecs
