So I'm making a multi-function clock for practice.
It's a clock, timer and alarm. It's all done except for the alarm. I want to be able to choose a song (mp3) with OpenFileDialog1 and then play it when I click a button. I'm thinking about using a hidden Windows Media Player control,
I have the API to play WAV files and it works, but how do I keep the music going even after a button is pressed on the form? When I press the button it plays a sound effect, and then the musi is stopped.

The program I'm working on is an alarm clock, so that may give you an idea of the problem. Basically, I just want the user to be able to select his/her own song to play when the time comes. So, the user clicks on a button, and an OpenFileDialog pops up. The user selects an audio file, and then that file is going to be the file that is played when the alarm goes off.
I'm not near my Microsoft Visual Studio at the moment, so I didn't have time to test it, but here is a code that I think may work:

View 3 RepliesHey guys, I'm a new guy in VB.NET. I am proposing my final year project a title called music studio. My version of music studio is like real music video where we can play many sound at any time. For example, the application that I want to build can create many button and also add an audio along with it. And then, when we hit the 1st button, it play 1st audio. while 1st audio play, we also can hit 2nd button and 2nd audio is playing. for example, 1st audio is sound of man walking, and then 2nd audio is the sound of glass break. lastly 3rd sound sound of police siren play. Is it cool? so, my question is, is it possible the I can build an application by using VB.NET?

I've created a new form in my program and dragged the windows media player into the form. I have an mp3 in a resources folder within the project. I've set the URL to the name of the mp3. I've looked at tutorials but they make the windows player accessible to the users. I just want the user to be able to hear the music and not be able to change anything regarding the background music.
I want the music to start playing at runtime and continue to loop for now. I will eventually want to switch up the background music depending on which form the user is on. But for now I would be happy just getting a single mp3 to play continuously.

View 5 RepliesBecause My hard drive in my Lap Top is so small I have moved a bunch of files onto an external hard drive.
The Files I have included in the move are my Music files.
I then set my music directory to these files.
No problem except one time I disconnected to go some where with out my external drive.
At which time my computer set the music directory to Nothing ("") now when I click on the "Music" button nothing happens
when I right click on the button and select property's it is completely blank with out a way to reset my music.
So I decided to wright a short program to reset it.
I guess nobody else has had this problem because I could not find anything on that
To recreate the program
1.Create a windows Form Application
2.Add a Label and Label it "Label1"
3.Add two buttons "Button1" and "Button2"
4.Button1.Text = "Select Directory"
5.Button2.Text = "Set Directory"
6.Add a Folder Browser Dialog and name it "FolderBrowserDialog1"
7.Add this code
Dim Directory As String
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

After casually creating a program to manage media (music, films, photos etc.) I came across a lack of functions that could be solved be being able to identify the length/ genre/ album/ artist of the song in question. find these file attributes (using a database is out of the question due to lack of resources).I'm reading the song into a string array from the folder they are contained in with the code:
My.Computer.FileSystem.Getfiles(FolderPath).copyto(MusicArray,0)
