NAME
system.ini − system.ini file used by the mmeserver.
SYNTAX
[section]
key_name[driver_num]=driver_name
DESCRIPTION
The system.ini file specifies the drivers (∗.so files) the MM server should use. All drivers are checked and loaded at server startup time to make sure the files exist, are in the proper format, and so the server can determine the functional interface of each driver which indicates the type of messages the driver can support.
section specifies a section of drivers. section can be drivers and installable compressors. The drivers section is required in the file.
key_name specifies the type or class of driver. If more than one driver exists in a class, then the names should be appended with ascending numbers. Spaces in key names are significant. If there are multiple key names for a given class of driver, then the class name with no number appended will match the first instance of that class.
driver_name specifies the name of the driver.
KEY NAMES
The currently recognized key names are:
msvideo video capture
wave wave audio
vidc.???? video compression and decompression
All drivers except the video compress and decompression drivers must appear in the [drivers] section of the file. The video compression and decompression drivers can appear in either the [drivers] or [installable compressors] section of the file.
The video compression and decompression driver key names begin with vidc. and end with a four character code which identifies the specific compression handler type.
