AxWindowsMediaPlayer PlayStageChange Event Either Broken Or (almost) Useless

Jul 16, 2010

After over a year of debugging and searching I have come to the conclusion that the AxWindowsMediaPlayer PlayStageChange event is either broken or (almost) useless. I am not the only one that has come to this conclusion [URL]

Let's start with the official documentation for the PlayStateChange event: "Windows Media Player states are not guaranteed to occur in any particular order. Furthermore, not every state necessarily occurs during a sequence of events. You should not write code that relies upon state order." I have been a top level software developer for 25 years and I don't recall ever seeing documentation that officially states that a certain function cannot actually be relied upon in a repeatable fashion. I'm all for multi-threading but this is a bit astounding to say the least. I can only assume that this event is actually exposed soley for logging status.

.net - Response.AppendHeader() Is Broken

Sep 23, 2011

I'm using Response.AppendHeader("Refresh", "2; url=default.aspx") To send users back to the home page after they log in or log out and it works. But, on the contact us page it fails and this is what it says: The resource cannot be found. Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.Requested URL: /default.aspx, 2; url=default.aspx The weird thing is this doesn't happen in debug, only on the live site. It looks like it's appending the header twice somehow...

Httpagility Pack Scraping Between Broken Tag?

Jun 2, 2012

i need to scrape a p tag which has h3 tag after it but does not have a closing p tag. It looks like this :

<script ad>asdasdasd</script>
<p>Translation companies are
-----------------------
-----------------------
<h3 class="this_class">mind blown site</h3>

There is no </p> tag so i cannot parse it completely. Now i have two questions :

1) can this be parsed using httpagility xpath ?

2) i have a function to find text between two strings (getbetween). But i have a doubt - If i use "asdasdasd" and " is it always 100% that vb.net will use the script tag which is just above h3 because there are 2-3 same lines - "asdasdasd"

VS 2008 Openprocess Doesnt Broken?

Jan 17, 2010

I was just wondering if anyone out there has experienced the same problem as i. I have tried using open process with ReadProcessMemory and have been getting the same darn return value back (OpenProcess return value = 373662154752) and i dont know why.I tried even changing the processID to a bogus value and i get the same handle back! i find that really weird and frusterating. Anyways here is a snipet of my code.

[Code]...

I also want to mention that i have tried changing the Access rights to PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS and received same damn value... Any help on getting it to work would be appreaciated. Also i am working under windows 7 X64(Bit) if that makes any difference.

P.S If you have questions to why im using these api functions, its to do with creating a program to save information from stored buffers of a flight simulation software at bombardier where i work. All software has been given to me in order to build this program.

Windows Forms Designer Broken In VS2010?

Sep 3, 2010

We've recently upgraded from VS2008 to VS2010. The conversion of our vb.net Windows Forms app went well, but we're now having big problems with the forms designer.retty much any change to the layout of a form (sometimes just a solution rebuild) will work once, but on recompile, the IDE designer refuses to display the form, the error message being a null-reference exception (with no details as to what).Closing and restarting VS2010 will cure it, but only for one compile cycle - and it's obviously not practical to close and reopen every time. Closing and reopening the form does not fix it.

Tell When AxWindowsMediaPlayer Is Downloading?

May 2, 2012

I am using AxWindowsMediaPlayer on VB.NET to preview MP3 files from the web so that the user can choose to download it if he likes it. It works. I just put a link in the URL property and after a while it begins playing. ... after a while, of course. Because it has to download the file first. Perhaps I realized that because of my slow connection XD. But that made me think: how can I tell if the player is currently downloading a file? So that I can put a label saying "Please wait, preparing file..." or something.

AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer To Play Wmv Files Within Application

Feb 27, 2010

I'm using AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer to play wmv files within my application. I provide an encrypted wmv file, which will not play on windows media player and within my application load it into an array, decrypt it and save it as a normal wmv file, which can then be played in the normal way by windows media player.However, I want to avoid saving the decrypted file to disk as this could then be copied by the user. Is there a way to play the media from within my application without first saving the file to disk? IE directly from the byte array?
