Sounds very similar to the Windows Media Control Interface. But this is
just a way of using a PC as a control centre for external hardware, not
for getting digital audio/video data in and out of the PC.

Can you actually get a stream of digital data from the OS/2 Multimedia
Extensions, or send one to them? Do the Extensions support anything else
besides audio?
