Using the MMCompView utility
============================
This utility is a standalone executable. It doesn't require any installation process
or additional DLLs. Just run the executable (mmview.exe) and all installed 
multimedia components will be displayed.



Disable and enable multimedia components
========================================
If you install multiple Codec packages and other multimedia software on the same
computer, you might find out that some multimedia files are not played properly 
as before. This problem is occurred if Windows Media Player uses the codec
or filter of the newly installed multimedia software.
If you install a new Codec package and something goes wrong, you can try to fix 
the problem disabling the newly installed components.
