Adding, grouping, and repeating media items

Media items are a presentation's basic unit of media content, and each type of item contains references to a particular

kind of information. For example, a video item contains pointers to the presentation's video content, and an audio

item points to sound content. To add content to a SMIL presentation, you add the appropriate type of items and

specify the media source files for each item.

When adding items, use the Parallel Container if you want the items to play simultaneously, or use the Sequence

Container if you want them to play in a sequence. You can also set up items to repeat a specified number of times or

indefinitely.

You can add the following types of media items:

Use for video files that display continuous motion, such as a RealVideo file (.rm).

Use for animation files, such as .swf files.

Animate (SWF) icon

Use for audio files, such as RealAudio files (.rm or .ra).

Use for JPEG, GIF, PNG, or RealPix files.
