Using RTP Audio


NetShow uses an ActiveX™ control to provide an easy way to receive network audio transmissions using multicast routing. See the Microsoft ActiveX SDK for more information about ActiveX controls.

For simplicity, this tutorial focuses on using a scripting language, such as Microsoft Visual Basic® Scripting Edition (VBScript), to explain how to use the control. See the Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition documentation for more information about VBScript. See the ActiveX SDK for more ways to use ActiveX controls. For example, the Microsoft ActiveX Control Pad enables rapid application development using ActiveX controls.
