The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Windows with Multimedia Extensions, version 1.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The illustration on page B-6 of the MediaVision manual "Introducing
Windows with Multimedia Version 1.0" shows the media player playing an
animation file, in this case PHASES.MMM. There is no device driver for
animation supplied with Windows with Multimedia Extensions. The driver
is called MCI Movie Player, as shown on page C-5 of the MediaVision
manual "Introducing Windows with Multimedia Version 1.0." This driver
does not appear in the actual Windows with Multimedia Extensions
program.

There is an animation player in the Multimedia Development Kit (MDK).
Developers should be advised of this.
