Asp.net - DataTable Filter Mystery?
Apr 12, 2010In the below code, I create a DataTable and filter it.

As soon as I set SubsectionAmount=10, the dr2 array returns Nothing.I can't find what is wrong. Here is the code:

2D Drawing: The Button - Redraw Mystery?
Feb 17, 2012I have the interesting task of doing some graphs using VB.NET. So far, everything that I´ve been reading about GDI+ and e.graphics whatever is really weird. All I want to do is1) Calculate some coordinates clicking button 12) Click button 2 to draw a line with the numbers from button 13) Click button 1 to get new coordinates5) click button 3 to clear the graph. So I decided to draw everthing on top of a Panel, called panel1. I have a routine that draws on screen called drawlines,
Private Sub drawlines(ByVal g As Graphics, ByVal c As Color)
Dim p As New Pen(c, 1)
g.DrawLine(p, xStart, yStart, xEnd, yEnd)

VS 2008 User Settings Mystery With VB6 Com Interop?
Oct 14, 2010This problem has frustrated me to the extent that I am now willing to make a one-time donation of GBP25 to the nominated charity of the person who provides what I consider to be the most helpful answer over the next 24 hours.
Let us say I have a VB 6 SP6 Standard EXE project called VB6EXE.vbp and I am working on this in the VB 6 design-time IDE.VB6EXE.vbp references a compiled VB 6 SP6 DLL project, let us call that VB6DLL.dll VB6DLL.dll references a .tlb which references a compiled VB 2008 library assembly, let's call that VB2008.dll So in abstract terms the arrangement looks something like this:

Tell When AxWindowsMediaPlayer Is Downloading?
May 2, 2012I 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.

Jul 16, 2010After 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.

AxWMPLib.AxWindowsMediaPlayer To Play Wmv Files Within Application
Feb 27, 2010I'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?

View 3 RepliesPlaying File Over Network With AXWMPLib.AXWindowsMediaPlayer?
Jan 18, 2010I am developing a WinForms app that stores media files (video/audio) on a file server.All the file attributes are indexed on a SQL server. Currently, I am accessing the files in my client app for playback and export to file by impersonating the authorized user for the file share, caching a local copy, then doing what I need to do with the cached file (playback, export etc.)If a viewer wants to view a file (using the AXWindowsMediaPlayer control), I have to first cache the file completely (using the process I just mentioned) before the user can play it back. Any way I can get around this - perhaps someway I can avoid the cache step and play directly from the UNC source?I tried impersonating the authorized user then passing the UNC path for the file to AXWindowsMediaPlayer,but I got an error. It seems like the impersonation does not work with the control.Different threads? Also, is there a better way to do all this? Mounting a share does not seem to be an options since I want to control access to the media files through the app.

AxWindowsMediaPlayer - Current Position And Play Time Difference?
Jan 10, 2012I'm using VB 2010 Express with two instance of AxWindowsMediaPlayer in order to sync two videos (the videos are of the same thing but from two camera angles). Because the videos were started at slightly different times I've manually set the start time of each one using the following
AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentPosition = 314.5093196
AxWindowsMediaPlayer2.Ctlcontrols.currentPosition = 237.1639908
The problem I'm having is that whilst the WMP clock initially displays the above times in each AxWindowsMediaPlayer, when I play the videos each starts a few seconds out from the stated currentPositions.
The video files are around 300MB each and when testing with smaller video files the problem does not seem to happen. I'm guessing the large file size is causing some delay and hence causing the problem.

Aug 29, 2011I am writing an application for managing mp3 files. I use AXWindowsMediaPlayer1 for playing files and UltraID3 for reading and writing ID3 tags. Every time the user selects to switch to next song, the ID3 tags of the current file need to be updated. My problem is with Media Player taking a long time to release a file for access after doing a "close". Currently I need to add a 6 seconds delay between the "Close" method of the media player and the ID3 tag "Write", otherwise I get the error saying that the file is currently in use. Anything less than 6 seconds does not work...
I attached a short version of my application which focuses on the issue.
