  Developer Library: Media Kit

  The Media Kit defines an architecture for processing audio, video, and MIDI data. It gives applications the ability to generate, examine, and manipulate medium-specific data in real time.

The Media Kit has been totally redesigned for R4. The April 1999 BeDC transcripts present a comprehensive introduction to the new Media Kit.
