Are you looking for a fast, easy way to create software
applications for the Microsoft Windows operating system? If so, AutoPlay Media
Studio is just what the doctor ordered!
AutoPlay Media Studio 8 delivers on the promise of rapid
application development. What would normally take days or weeks to build using
traditional software development tools (C, C++, Java, Visual Basic) can now be
created in record time – by just about anyone. And not just simple little
scripts and forms. We’re talking about full-featured interactive multimedia
applications complete with web interaction, database connectivity, video
playback and much more.
The Original AutoPlay
CD/DVD Menu + Multimedia Software Development Tool
You’re probably already familiar with AutoPlay Media Studio.
It’s been the industry standard tool for creating autorun CD/DVD/USB menus for
years. (Heck, we invented the category!) All told, hundreds of millions of
discs have been distributed thanks to AutoPlay Media Studio (and its
grandfather, AutoPlay Menu Studio).
What you may not know is that AutoPlay Media Studio has
become a secret weapon for thousands of savvy software developers, consultants
and IT professionals. Realizing its unique rapid-programming potential,
developers started using it to prototype and build full-scale graphically rich
multimedia software applications. Once it became apparent just how much time
and money they could save, there was no turning back.
Which brings us to where we are now – the release of the
most significant version of AutoPlay Media Studio yet. With version 8, our goal
was to improve everything software developers loved about AutoPlay Media
Studio, while pushing it fully into the realm of rapid application development.
We think you’re going to be extremely impressed.

forms, run programs, open documents, send emails, view websites, download files
and so much more. The only limit is your imagination!
There’s no faster or better software development tool for
combining multimedia elements (videos, images, sound effects, music and flash
animations) with advanced scripting logic, database manipulation, text parsing,
web interaction, document display (PDF, PowerPoint, Excel, Word), data
collection and graphically-rich data visualization.
