The Ultimedia Services programming interface is presented as a binary class library through System Object Model (SOM). The object methods and arguments are presented without the SOM language syntax that is required for any given language to instance an object and call its methods. This class library provides various objects that can be used to play, record, and edit media files. See "General Programming Information" for more general information.
