MCIcmd Events
Media Control Interface (MCI) commands are special events that let you
control other multimedia hardware and software (e.g., CD-ROM drives,
laserdiscs, sound cards, animations, video) during playback. MCI
commands are part of the multimedia extensions in Windows. MCIcmd
events have one parameterÑthe command line text of the MCI
command. Here are some examples:
While MCI commands can be used to play wave Þles, these Þles are
played at their normal speed and are not necessarily synchronized with
MIDI or other audio data. By contrast, wave audio events are played in
lock-step synchronization with MIDI and other audio data.
For complete documentation of Windows MCI commands, search for MCI
on the Microsoft World Wide Web site (www.microsoft.com).
