Multimedia Files You Must Include With Your Application (Redistributables)
The installation procedure creates a directory tree for the LEADTOOLS files, and adds the demonstration programs and online help to your desktop. You specify the root directory during installation. The following subdirectory for the Multimedia features is created:
|
Redist\MM |
Redistributable Multimedia features files. |
|
Redist\MM\Unlicensed |
Redistributable Multimedia features files that require special licensing. |
The LEADTOOLS Multimedia features require Microsoft DirectShow 8.0 or later for full multimedia functionality. In particular, the QUARTZ.DLL file, which is the DirectShow kernel module, must be installed on the computer.
To save ASF/Windows Media with full functionality (create video-only files, use custom, non-Microsoft codecs in ASF files, etc.), the latest Windows Media Components are required. These components are included in an installation package named WMFDist95.exe present in the Redist\MM folder. These components are also included in Windows Media Player 9 and later versions. Therefore, you do not need to install these components on computers that have Windows Media 9 player installed.

* LEAD DirectShow components now rely on an external object to determine the operation mode: Release or Evaluation. This external object, called DSKernel, should be used to unlock/lock LEAD DirectShow modules.
**Requires additional LEADTOOLS SDK depending on which raster formats are required.
For more information on the evaluation mechanism and the DSKernel object, please refer to Evaluation Mechanism Overview and LMDSKernel2 Object
