Media Control Interface. High-level control software that provides a device-independent interface to multimedia devices and media files. MCI includes a command-message interface and a command-string interface.
The standard method of controlling multimedia devices before DirectShow/Windows 95. It is a standard for communicating with devices that support VCR-like operations like play, pause, stop, etc., such as MPEG playback cards. A given device might offer both MCI and DirectShow drivers.
The Windows component that allows multimedia devices such as CD-ROM drives and videodisk players to be programmed using high-level function calls that insulate the software from the nuances of the hardware. You can use the MCI play command, for example, to play a song on an audio CD or a video clip on a videodisc player. MCI drivers provided with Windows translate the play command into low-level commands specific to the intended output device.
message channel interface. The MQSeries interface to which customer- or vendor-written programs that transmit messages between an MQSeries queue manager and another messaging system must conform. A part of the MQSeries Framework.
Media Control Interface. An API created for controlling multimedia devices such as CD ROM drives.
Media Control Interface. A Windows API for controlling multimedia devices such as CD ROM drives.
Media control interface. A multimedia specification designed to provide control of onscreen movies and peripherals like CD-ROM drives.
Multiport Communications Interface. Card on the AGS+ that provides two Ethernet interfaces and up to two synchronous serial interfaces. The MCI processes packets rapidly, without the interframe delays typical of other Ethernet interfaces.
