Item 1. Security and Issuer
This Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D on Multimedia,
Inc., (the "Issuer"), is being filed on behalf of the undersigned
to amend the Schedule 13D, as amended (the "Schedule 13D") which
was originally filed on March 24, 1995. Unless otherwise indi-
cated, all capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein
shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Schedule 13D.
Item 2. Identity and Background
This statement is being filed by Mario J. Gabelli ("Mr.
Gabelli") and various entities which he directly or indirectly
controls and for which he acts as chief investment officer.
These entities, except for Lynch Corporation ("Lynch"), Spinnaker
Insudtries (formerly Safety Railway Services Corporation),
Western New Mexico Telephone Company ("Western New Mexico") and
Inter-Community Telephone Company ("Inter-Community") engage in
various aspects of the securities business, primarily as invest-
ment advisor to various institutional and individual clients,
including registered investment companies and pension plans, as
broker/dealer and as managing general partner of various private
investment partnerships. Certain of these entities may also make
investments for their own account.
The foregoing persons in the aggregate often own
beneficially more than 5% of a class of equity securities of a
particular Issuer. Although several of the foregoing persons are
treated as institutional investors for purposes of reporting
their beneficial ownership on the short-form Schedule 13G, the
holdings of those who do not qualify as institutional investors
may exceed the 1% threshold presented for filing on Schedule 13D
or implementation of their investment philosophy may from time to
time require action which could be viewed as not completely
passive. In order to avoid any question as to whether their
beneficial ownership is being reported on the proper form and in
order to provide greater investment flexibility and administra-
tive uniformity, these persons have decided to file their benefi-
cial ownership reports on the more detailed Schedule 13D form
rather than on the short-form Schedule 13G and thereby to provide
more expansive disclosure than may be necessary.
(a), (b) and (c) - This statement is being filed by one
or more of the following persons: Gabelli Funds, Inc. ("GFI"),
GAMCO Investors, Inc. ("GAMCO"), Gabelli Securities, Inc. ("GS-

(d) and (e) On August l7, l988, the parties named in
the following administrative order consented to its entry by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, prior to the adjudication of
any issue of fact or law and without admitting or denying any of
the allegations: In the Matter of The Gabelli Group, Inc.,
Gabelli-Rosenthal & Partners, L.P, G&R Partners, Gabelli Funds,
Inc., GAMCO Investors, Inc. and Mario J. Gabelli, Securities
Exchange Act of l934 Release No. 26005, Investment Act of l940
Release No. 16527. In substance, in its order, the Commission
made findings that the entities and Mr. Gabelli violated Section
13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 13D-1
thereunder ("Section 13(d)") by failing to make a timely filing
of a Schedule 13D (rather than a Schedule 13G on which certain of
the entities reported their holdings) disclosing that the respon-
dents formed a group to acquire or influence the control of
DiGiorgio Corporation ("DiGiorgio") and that the entities (and
not Mr. Gabelli) violated Section l7(d) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and Rule 17d-1 thereunder ("Section 17(d)") by
seeking a leveraged buy-out trans-action with DiGiorgio in which
certain affiliated investment companies had an investment. The
order requires the entities and Mr. Gabelli to comply with
Section 13(d) and the entities to comply with Section l7(d) and
requires the respondents to retain independent counsel to review
their practices and procedures for compliance with Sections 13(d)
and l7(d), to submit the counsel's report to the board of direc-
tors of the respondent entities and to the investment companies
they advise and to provide the Staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission with such counsel's report and any action
taken in response thereto.
The independent counsel's report and suggested proc-
edures were presented to the Board of Directors of the respondent
entities and to the investment companies they advise. The Boards
and management of all the entities adopted the recommended proc-
edures in November of 1988. In addition the report and the
action taken by the entities and their Boards were provided to
the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission on November
15, 1988.
(f) - Reference is made to Schedule I hereto.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
All Reporting Persons used an aggregate of approximate-
ly $13,585,863 to purchase its Securities. GAMCO and GFI used
approximately $13,283,863 and $189,375, respectively, of funds
that were provided through the accounts of certain of their
investment advisory clients (and, in the case of some of such
accounts at GAMCO, may be through borrowings from client margin
accounts) in order to purchase the Securities for such clients.
Gabelli Multimedia used approximately $56,250 to purchase the
Securities reported by it. ALCE used approximately $56,375 to
purchase the Securities reported by it.

ation of applicable Federal Communications Commission requirements
regarding voting control, to take and exercise in its sole
discretion the entire voting power with respect to the shares held
by each such Fund, until its proxy committee determines otherwise
and, accordingly, GFI has no voting authority with regard to the
shares held by such Funds, and except that the power of Mr. Gabelli
