If this is the first time you are using a MPEG Viewer
inside NETSCAPE, it must be associated with the video clips (i.e.,
the mpeg files). In NETSCAPE go to OPTIONS from the pulldown menu
and select GENERAL PREFERENCES. Choose the HELPERS
tab and select the CREATE NEW TYPE button. In the "Configure
New Mime Type" window, enter "video"
as the Mime Type, and "mpeg" as the Mime Subtype.
Click OK. Check that the file extensions dialog is set to "mpg"
in the HELPERS window. Click on the BROWSE button
and navigate to the mpeg executable on your hardrive. After making
your selection, click OK. Check that "launch the application"
has been selected. Finally, click OK to associate the player with
the video clips. Now it will be possible to play a
video (in the movie directory) simply by clicking on it.
Alternatively, you can select any mpeg file and NETSCAPE
should determine the correct Mime Type/Subtype and prompt
you for the location of the MPEG Viewer.
If you do not already have a MPEG Viewer configured, you can extract and install
a shareware version available with this CD-ROM. Versions can be found on this CD-ROM for
SGI IRIX, MACINTOSH, SUN SOLARIS, WINDOWS 3.1, WINDOWS 95, and WINDOWS NT under
the \software\mpeg\archive directories.
