Java Desktop System Release 3 Administration Guide

To Use the mediaLib Libraries on Solaris Systems

The mediaLibTM libraries are a collection of functions that accelerate common multimedia operations. The Java Desktop System uses the mediaLib libraries if the libraries are installed on the system. The performance of the Java Desktop System, especially the file manager, improves significantly when the mediaLib libraries are installed. The Java Desktop System requires mediaLib version 2.0 or higher.

For information about how to obtain and install the mediaLib libraries, see the mediaLib website at the following URL:
