1CW-MM classes
2-------------
3This package is a complete replacement for the
4multimedia classes coming with MMOS2. The convert menu
5is enhanced and the image classes are more robust WRT
6broken image files or buggy IO-procs. The limitations
7of the JPG-IO proc are still there. This procedure crashes
8on some images and the only way to resolve is a restart of
9the WPS. To overcome this limitiation a new JPGIO-IO procedure
10is included.
11
12Two classes are for seemless integration of the
13MMIO procedures for MP3 and OGG files written by
14Russel O'Connor.
15Get these procedures from:

18
19After installation Ogg- and MP3 files are treated the
20same way by the WPS as the other audio files. They have
21their own Icons and the same menus as for example
22wave files. A doubleclick starts playback another one
23stops it. The convert menu item helps you decoding the
24file to wave without any other program.
25
26The settings notebook of every audio file gets a new
27page added describing the audio characteristics like
28playtime or samplerate. This data is also shown in the
29details view of folders if set to class:CWAudio.
30
31There's also a new open-item for volume.
32You may view and change the ID3 tags of MP3 files
33using the settings notebook. These tags are also shown
34in the details view.
