Play back media files

ArtBase is able to present most media files directly in their attached fields. Thus you will see images, slideshows or text files directly. Audio files are represented by an icon. E-mail addresses as well as links to web pages are represented as texts.
Some of these can also be shown in external viewers. A double-click will start the appropriate action. Images can appear in an external viewer, text files and multi-line text fields in notepads or such. Email addresses as well as URL-links are launched with the OpenURL library. You can get these, if not already on your system, at Aminet or similar sources.
Audio files will be played back after a double-click directly, even without an external player. Single line texts will only be shown in their attached fields.
