Class reference for the advanced Multamedia kits under BeOS

Keep in mind, this is not a beginers book to Be programming, more like a reference to the advanced kit classes and APIs Be offers. Be Advanced Topics is a suplimental to the Be Developers Guide, or lovingly refered to as "The BeBook". I don't reccomend you buying this book unless you have the BeBook and understand it first. Basically, the BeBook will help you create windows and GUIs under Be, where Be Advanced Topics will teach you how to put live vidio in those windows. Neither books really tech you much about getting started in be programming, mostly just expect you to be up to speed in OOP (Object Oriated Programming).Good Luck, Barista T. Bill
