   End Try

   ' [use the multimedia feature here]

   ' lock the multimedia feature before exiting the app

   // [use the multimedia feature here]

   // lock the multimedia feature before exiting the app
   try
   {
      Leadtools.Multimedia.Common.MultimediaSupport.LockModules(Leadtools.Multimedia.Common.LockType.Application, pszAppId);
   }
   catch
