I'm developing video intercom system. i have push button to talk. when user press the push button, i need to increase the system microphone volume and mute the system speaker. While releasing the push button, i need increase the system speaker volume and mute the system microphone volume.
I have searched the web for code relating to changing the system volume, muting the system volume, and outputing the current level of the volume as an integer, using VB.NET.
All the code that I have found either doesn't work, or is very long.
there are many C# things for this but I DONT KNOW C#, this link has FOUR C# PROJECTS - when it is posted in this forum:[URL]..it is ticking me off that all of the volume control i can find is in, yet again, C#!
please help, i NEED something to mute/unmute mic on button click and speakers on button click
I am trying to make an application that is able to turn master volume on and off (Mute unmute). And what I have done so far is increasing and decreasing volume, but if sound is turned on mute then it wont start anyway. And that was really a lot of code to do that, so is there an easy way to mute sound or is it equally alot to do.
I have tried SendKeys.Send(Keys.VolumeMute) But with no effect, and I have tried using chr(173) instead of keys.volumemute. (I have a variable that looks if the sound was mute or not from start so it can be default afterwards).
I need help declaring and executing the necessary commands to mute the volume on my computer (globally, ie. will effect all programs using sound, not just the application itself).
I have been at it for a while and cannot get it to work.[code]by double clicking on a picture box. The Start/Stop/Pause buttons work just fine, however I can not get the volume and mute to work.I can physicaly click on the mute button and move the volume bar,but I have no control over the music volume and mute function.
get data like the pitch and volume of the sound currently being "heard" through a microphone?
Do you know the little graph which the Windows 98/XP sound recorder used to show? It used to show the pitch and volume of the sound which was being recorded. Like I want to get the data from that.
Basically, I will start experimenting this stuff by showing the volume of the sound entering the microphone in a label. And maybe the pitch too.
Does anyone know how to get and set the system sound volume? I have tried every method I've found on the net and none of them work. I've tried the winmm.dll APIs with no luck. I've also tried waveOutGetVolume/waveOutSetVolume, which didn't work. I'm using Win 7, but need a solution that works on XP+.
Right now I use the VolumeUp keyboard event, but I need to be able to get the volume and set it to a specific level.
I have an application that plays wav and mp3 files using the Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio()function. It works fine, and I can easily set the volume level of the playback... within limits.
That limit is the system volume level. I can set the playback level for the mp3, but if the system volume is muted or set real low it may still play softly.
So how do I set the master volume level, including making sure it isn't muted?
How can I control the Computers volume inside visual basic? (like you have the speaker icon and when you click on it Volume scroll thing) at the bottom left of Windows, but I want it in my program. I am running Windows 7 (if that makes any difference
I'm trying to make a utility that will fade out the system volume (for when I fall asleep listening to my music). In XP and prior, controlling the system audio was very simple, however, in Vista and 7, I can't figure out how to do it. Because in Windows 7 each application has it's own volume control, lowering the volume doesn't affect the system overall - only the current app. Can anyone point me to a resource how to do this? Every forum posting that I've found on this topic is about XP, and doesn't work under newer versions of Windows.
I have 2 trackbars (scrolling things) and i have a song playing in a media also but what i want is it to get the left speaker volume in 1 trackbar and the right speaker volume current in another, so when the song is playin it will adjust automatically and display the current left & right speaker volume (example: when the media goes louder the trackbar will probably increase) ive seen it in many programs.
I am using following code to get directory info. it works well if I search topleveldirectory. But when i search alldirectories, it reaches system level information and throws error. Is there any way to avoid searching system level information folder?

I have a device (a few actually) that connects via USB to a PC. From here it acts like a basic storage device using FAT32 as the file system. The other thing is that it won't accept drive names (C:, E:, G: etc) to it so instead you need to use its Volume GUID to connect. I have retrieved this painlessley through MountVol.exe but thats where the difficulties ended.I am not trying to access the file system through VB.NET/C#.net (either will be fine - fluent in both ;) ). In Windows Explorer I can easily visit '\?Volume{71E4C2C7-E511-4B2A-BF5C-569B2B25784E}apic' to access the device and its files. I can also use CMD and the Dir command to go through the files. Just .NET cant seem to cope. I understand the GUID changes on each PC and I am OK with this as I can use MountVol to get the GUID and run the console app with command arguments as it will always be a human initiating the command.
I have tried manually entering the path via Console.ReadKeys but this also fails to even see the directory above and any of the files inside one being 'dev' without an extention. I can use System.IO operations without extensions on "normal" drives (ie those with letters) so I know it's not the extension causing problems. I did a Try/Catch with a StreamReader pointing to the file to see what was spurted out:
System.ArgumentException: Illegal characters in path. at System.Security.Permissions.FileIOPermission.HasIllegalCharacters(String[] str)

I am trying to write a countdown timer I finally succeeded with MSDN. I get to work whatever I wanted, but this drives me nuts: How can I read and set the volume control? I want, once my timer is run down to zero, read out the current system setting, then play a system sound using Media.SystemSounds.Exclamation.Play() Over time I like to ramp up the volume to 80% or until one clicks the Alarm off button (then stop the timer, no sound, and reset volume).

When I try to run this I get the following error: The volume does not contain a recognized file system. Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted.I am trying to read all drives with FAT16, FAT32 and NTFS.My PC is using NTFS and is running normally.
I am working on a little project for my phone creating some sort of remote to turn up/down my system volume via wifi. The phone will send data to a text field on the website lets say such as "vol up" and the vb app sitting on the computer will be constantly reading this text field for key words like "vol up", "vol down". when it see's a recognized command it reacts by turning the volume up and so on. And one more thing: Is it possible to have a vb app that uses http? E.g., sits on port 80 itself and can be accessed via local ip.
I'm attempting to use waveOutSetVolume from coredll.dll to gradually increase the audio volume from silent (or near silent) to maximum.
Most of the code examples I'm finding show some predefined set points for Off, Low, Normal, Medium, High, and Very High like this:
Public Enum Volumes As Integer OFF = 0 LOW = 858993459

OK, and here's some API documentation which doesn't make a lot of sense to me in this particular context. What is low-order word and high-order word and how can they both exist in a single value?
· dwVolume New volume setting. The low-order word contains the left-channel volume setting, and the high-order word contains the right-channel setting. A value of 0xFFFF represents full volume, and a value of 0x0000 is silence. If a device does not support both left and right volume control, the low-order word of dwVolume specifies the volume level, and the high-order word is ignored.
I work on media player for my own every this is working good but when i play a sound file and press on mute(picture box) it's muted the sound but when i open another sound file the sound of the file is play and the mute picture box show's that the sound is muted . i need to set the sound mute if i pressed on the picture box and when open any formate the sound must still muted until i pressed on mute picture box to unmute the sound and this is the mute code in my project.
CODE:

I had a source code along time ago but can't find it anymore. When the Browser control refreshes a page - it plays the audio from the video it's viewing. I don't think the user that using the program will like that. Is there any way I can mute the audio inside the program without effecting other windows audio like when the user has music playing?
