I'm using the iTunes library control to figure out the current song playing in my iTunes, but theres 1 annoying thing... everytime I load my program it now automatically starts iTunes. Is there a way to use the control and not have it launch iTunes with my program? Or a better way of getting the current iTunes song without using the iTunes control?
View 3 RepliesVB.NET Visual Studios 2010 or 2008 only!I have searched like crazy and can't find how to get the wmp current playing song Title, Artist and Album names.
I would like to later bring this to Post to Facebook and Twitter ONLY when that button is clicked.
I have already tried things like this: (From the internet)
Dim zArtist As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Artist")
Dim zTrackTitle As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Title")
Dim zAlbum As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Album")
i have 2 listboxes beside eachother and one listbox shows all the songs in the wmp control playlist, the other listbox always has the same topindex, im trying to show in that listbox with a pointer ('>') which song is currently playing in the media control but i need to know what the song number is in order to do that. there has to be some order, right? that increases when you go to the next song and decreases when u go to the previous?so far i have:
Private Sub wmp1_CurrentItemChange(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As AxWMPLib._WMPOCXEvents_CurrentItemChangeEvent) Handles wmp1.CurrentItemChange
Form2.ListBox2.Items.Clear()
[code].....
I want to play the next song from my listbox when the current song is finished. This is what I've tried:
If AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.playState = WMPLib.WMPPlayState.wmppsMediaEnded Then
ListBox1.SelectedIndex += 1
AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.URL = ListBox1.SelectedItem
AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.play()
End If
It changes the index of the listbox, but it doesn't play the new file. The file exist and there's no problem playing it the normal way.
I have got a Textbox - textbox1
and an axwindowsmediaplayer - mediaplayer1
this is the code I am using to make the mediaplayer play all the listed songs in the listbox[code].....
I want the song name that is playing to be displayed in the textbox.this is a code i tried to do but I failed:[code]......
When using a process.start command to start a media player and play a song at a file location, is there a way programmatically to tell when the song or media has completed playing?

View 2 Repliesis it possible to retrieve the current song (mp3) that is being played through your computer's speakers? No matter which program is playing the song.. This has to be possible since when a program plays an mp3 some code has to be passed through Windows telling it to play the song SongABC.mp3 using the computer's default speakers...
View 9 RepliesI have decided that I want to learn a bit about sound and how it works so I thought that I would make an application that reads and plays MP3 files. I know that this will be very difficult and that I will be re-inventing the wheel, but it's all for the educational purpose. So my questions are; How does it work, how does Windows Media Player plays the data from the MP3 file? How can I, with the data provided in the MP3 file, know what to play, how it should sound? Which method would I have to approach to play the sound provided in the file? If you think that I have too little knowledge on the subject

View 8 RepliesI have an asp.net project that's compiled on a server. On that same server I have a windows service that's running methods referenced from the asp.net .dll. Everything works fine except for when the httpcontext.current object needs to be accessed. I'm fairly certain that the cause of the .current being null is that it's referencing the shared library without an actual instance of the site running. In a previous version of the service I was able to find a workaround in asp.net by not using the context, however that is now a last resort as much of the architecture of the site has changed. Is there anyway to create an instance of the site and simulate a current httpcontext for the purposes of the service?

View 30 RepliesI are trying to write a small program for iTunes using Windows COM. We are able to talk to iTunes and create popup boxes that show the current track, and a few other small things. However, when we try to set this info to a Label for example, we get:
InvalidOperationException was unhandled by user code Cross-thread operation not valid: Control 'Label1' accessed from a thread other than the thread it was created on.
The program then hangs and locks iTunes from closing. I believe the issue is the event handler I have created, which I know very little about. We are using VB 2010, so that may change some things. We followed a rough example from a forum post HERE. If you scroll down the orange text, you will see a reply right after by Will Hughes with a "Handles iTunes.OnPlayEvent". If I add this to the end of my event handler, I get:
Handles clause requires a WithEvents variable defined in the containing type or one of its base types. Not sure if its important to the issue or not, but I found it curious. Our code is shown below.
