Thelypteridaceae | was later included

Wednesday, May 28th, 2008

Thelypteridaceae is a family of terrestrial ferns.

These ferns typically have creeping rhizomes. The fronds are simply pinnate to pinnate-pinnatifid. There is either no frond dimorphism or only mild dimorphism, either open venation or very simple anastomosing. The sori are mostly reniform in shape and have indusia, except for the Phegopteris group.

The family includes the species formerly placed in the genus Thelypteris, sensu latu. In fact, the entire family was at one time only considered to be a section or two of the genus Dryopteris (or Aspidium), a group to which it is actually only remotely related.

This family includes several complexes of species that are difficult to distinguish, and seem to represent a remarkable evolutionary radiation.

Recent genetic evidence shows that the family is clearly monophyletic. The same genetic studies show that the traditional genus Phegopteris is, in fact, a clearly segregate group that diverges at the very base of the family tree. In fact, this particular clade also includes the genera Pseudophegopteris and Macrothelypteris, which are here included in the larger genus Phegopteris. Similarly, Coryphopteris is included here in the genus Metathelypteris, Parathelypteris is included in Amauropelta, and a large group of genera are included in Cyclosorus.

Media Player | included

Monday, May 26th, 2008

Media Player was a media player originally included in Windows 3.0 with Multimedia Extensions and a slightly updated version was included with Windows 3.1x. Media Player received a facelift with Video for Windows, with an OLE2 version provided with the runtime software. This version forms the basis for the 32-bit version included with Windows 95 and Windows NT.

From Windows 95 onwards, Media Player took the same version number as Windows itself. Thus in the original version of Windows 95 it reports itself as 4.00.950, in Windows 2000 it is 5.0.* and in Windows XP it is version 5.1.*, where * refers to the build number.

As of Windows 98, Media Player was rendered obsolete, Windows Media Player being the replacement. Media Player is still included in Windows XP; however, it is no longer included as of Windows Vista.


Features

Unlike its replacement, Media Player allows one to choose which MCI device to send the file to. Media Player can be used to embed music or video in a document, as it supports OLE.


Criticism

Media Player did not show video in its own window. Video would either be fullscreen or in a separate window, with the filename as the title. The only exception was when the video was viewed via OLE, in which case it is displayed within the application.

The version of Media Player included in Windows 3.x is compatible with most versions of Windows; however, it does not recognize certain recent file types.


Versions

1991 Media Player 3.0 in Windows 3.0 with Multimedia Extensions
1992 Media Player 3.1 in Windows 3.1
1992 Media Player 3.15 in Windows 3.1 with Video for Windows installed
1995 Media Player 4.0 in Windows 95
1999 Media Player 5.0 in Windows 2000
2004 Media Player 5.1 in Windows XP
