Multimedia Technologies Changes

  • Article

The following changes have been made to multimedia technologies:

  • Support for DirectMusic was added to Windows CE .NET in version 4.0. Effective with version 4.2, DirectMusic is no longer supported. MIDI playback support is now provided exclusively through DirectShow.
  • Effective with version 4.2, the Windows Media Player Control no longer supports ActiveMovie compatibility.
  • Effective with version 4.2, the Cinepak (SYSGEN_DSHOW_CINEPAK) and Quicktime (SYSGEN_DSHOW_QT) video codecs are no longer supported. The Upgrade Wizard automatically removes these features. If you are upgrading manually, you need to modify your Cesysgen.bat file.
