The following example shows script-channel commands in a movie that plays compact-disc audio segments through MCI:
| Frame | Script Text |
| 2 | mci open cdaudio alias janes |
| 3 | mci set janes time format tmsf; mci stop janes |
| 4 | mci seek janes to 4:1:20 |
| 9 | mciWait janes |
| 10 | mci play janes from 4:1:20 to 4:1:23 |
| 12 | mciWait janes |
| 20 | mci play janes from 4:1:52 to 4:2:06 |
| 22 | mciWait janes |
| 30 | mci play janes from 4:2:22 to 4:2:34 |
| 31 | mciWait janes |
| 35 | mci play janes from 4:2:36 to 4:2:51 |
| 39 | mciWait janes |
| 45 | mci play janes from 4:3:53 to 4:4:07 |
| 46 | mciWait janes |
| 60 | mci seek janes to 11:1:22 |
| 64 | mciWait janes |
| 65 | mci play janes from 11:1:22 to 11:1:32 |
| 67 | mciWait janes |
| 75 | mci play janes from 11:1:32 to 11:2:12 |
| 77 | mciWait janes |
| 90 | mci play janes from 11:3:12 to 11:3:24 |
| 92 | mciWait janes |
| 97 | mci close janes |
The next example uses MCI to play a waveform audio file. It uses multiple MCI play commands and mciWait commands to synchronize sections of waveform audio with the appropriate movie frames.
| Frame | Script Text |
| 2 | mci open narrat\fer.wav type WaveAudio alias fer |
| 4 | mci play fer from 0 to 20404 |
| 8 | mciwait fer |
| 25 | mci play fer from 21426 to 31579 |
| 121 | mciwait fer |
| 123 | mci play fer from 32700 to 37185 |
| 198 | mciwait fer |
| 200 | mci play fer from 38231 to 41139 |
| 208 | mciwait fer |
| 210 | mci play fer from 42300 to 50327 |
| 226 | mciwait fer |
| 228 | mci play fer from 51455 to 56923 |
| 261 | mciwait fer |
| 262 | mci play fer from 57631 to 62055 |
| 268 | mciwait fer |
| 269 | mci play fer from 63285 to 70784 |
Since this movie file does not explicitly close the “fer” device before finishing, the Movie Player will close the device when the movie file is closed.
