Multimedia - Introduction

James Crowley

Introduction

Before we start, just what is multimedia? Really, multimedia is just what it says: lots of different (multi) forms of media (media). For example; Music CDs, Sound files (*.wav), graphics files, video and animations (*.avi). This tutorial will show you how we can use these in Visual Basic?

James first started writing tutorials on Visual Basic in 1999 whilst starting this website (then known as VB Web). Since then, the site has grown rapidly, and James has written numerous tutorials, articles and reviews on VB, PHP, ASP and C#. In October 2003, James formed the company Developer Fusion Ltd, which owns this website, and also offers various development services. In his spare time, he's a 3rd year undergraduate studying Computer Science in the UK. He's also a Visual Basic MVP.
