Remarks
A playlist can also use the ref, animation, audio, img, video, text, or textstream elements instead of media to designate a content item. There is no functional difference. These additional elements are provided to indicate the type of media, for the sake of readability.
The WMS SMIL Playlist Parser plug-in enforces case sensitivity on the media, ref, animation, audio, img, video, text, and textstream elements.
Example Code
The following example illustrates how to use the media element.
<?wsx version="1.0"?>
<smil>
<media id="m1" src="c:\wmpub\wmroot\Clip_1.wmv" dur="120s" />
<media id="m2" src="c:\wmpub\wmroot\Clip_2.wmv" />
</smil>
