BWD Bina Nusantara University 2 Multimedia Web design will be interesting if you can add grphics, sounds, animations, and or movies on tour web pages; but the proble is the size capacity, for example: ten seconds of medium quality sound take up more than 200K, which will take your average visitor about a minute to download.

BWD Bina Nusantara University 3 Sound You can add sound to your web page in two ways: –as a file that is download aa at once to your visitor’s computer and replayed, –as a streaming file that is downloaded little bits at a time and that starts to play even as it continues downloading

BWD Bina Nusantara University 6 Video Listen a sound in a web is not enough. It’s possible to add links to video on the webpage. As with sound files, you have to be especially careful to provide video in a format that your visitors will be able to use: QuickTime and MPEG for Mac and Windows, AVI just for Windows

BWD Bina Nusantara University 7 Adding External Video to Web page To make video accessible to visitors regardless of their browser, it might consider using, or at least adding, a link to an external video file.

BWD Bina Nusantara University 9 Real Media Files RealMedia files are not downloaded all at once, but instead are streamed bit by bit to your visitors so that they don’t have to wait for a complete download before listening.

BWD Bina Nusantara University 10 Real Media Files (2) The 3 components to adding RealMedia sound to the page: –the sound itself, –a text file called a metafile that references the sound on the server, and –the HTML code that points to the metafile

BWD Bina Nusantara University 11 Creating a RealMedia Metafile A link or embedded RealMedia file does not point to the file itself, but rather to a file that points to the RealMedia file. The intermediary file is called a metafile and is simply a text file that lists the path of one or more RealMedia files.
