Since installing IE6 SP1 the browser will no longer play DirectMusic files (sgt). This sample doesnot work on my two PC's with IE version 1106 with XPsp1 installed. Does it work for you? Please reply with mention of your OS and IEversion. http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/behaviors/htmltime/DMusic/basicSegment1.htm Otherwise DIrectmusic playback from the SDK kit works okay, only in the browsers with HTML+TIME there is no playback.
