Hints and Tips
guaranteed to work with this driver.
Only the “Media Player”
application (
mplay32.exe
) has been tested and verified.
If you have already installed Active Movie and Internet
Explorer 3.01, included in the Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack
3, you see the following caution after installing the MPEG-2
driver and starting Windows NT again:
Caution
Some of the file types usually associated with
ActiveMovie are currently associated with other
programs.
Because of this, you may be unable to play
certain types of multimedia files.
Do you want to fix
this (by restoring the file type to ActiveMovie)?
Select
No
and click on
Don't ask this question again
.
Running more than one video application sharing the same
video hardware is not supported.
For example, while an
MPEG file is playing, the video capture application does not
work.
Also, you cannot play an ActiveMovie while an MPEG
media player application is running.
You can display a video window to an external monitor
(CRT) or to a TV with the NTSC or PAL color standard:
The following are not supported, however:
-
Any resolution/color depth at the 47/87 refresh rate
- 800
×
600/16M colors with any refresh rate (video memory
limitation)
- 1600
×
1200/any colors with any refresh rate (video
memory limitation)
-
16 colors with any resolution or refresh rate
While an MPEG file is playing through Media Player,
suspend and resume are not supported.
You need to pause
or stop the playback mode before entering suspend mode.
If you enter suspend mode while playing a music CD with the
“CD Player” application of Windows NT in the DVD-ROM drive,
the “CD Player” window will show
No disc
in its panel after
resuming normal operation, because Windows NT does not
support APM mode.
To recover, close the “CD Player” window
and open it again; then you can play a music CD.
