Is possible - to open a music file in Windows Media Player from a visual basic program?
If i had 'track1.mp3' for example, does anyone know how to open this from visual basic in windows media player?
I have created a media player (vb.net 2005) using the media player control. Plays fine when using open dialog box and url. I have set my player as the default player but when I click on a media file, the player will open but not play. I am sure it has to do with on open event and coding the url to see the selected file just like any other media player out there.
View 14 RepliesI'm creating a kind of 'playlist manager' application where the user can create his own music playlist and then play it from my application. However, I don't want to give my application any playback features itself, as there are already so many media players around. Instead, I just want to open the files in the current playlist in the media player of the user's choice.
I have a list of MP3 files (their filenames), how do I now open these files simultaneously in, for example, Windows Media Player? I can get it to play one song, using this command (and Process.Start)
[Code]...
Surely this must be possible? You can open multiple files in windows itself simply by selecting them and opening them at the same time. I'm pretty sure the filenames of the selected files will then be in the arguments of wmplayer so that it can open them, but I just don't know in what format.
make media player in vb6 or vb2010.. not using windows media player..
View 1 RepliesJust wongering if there is anyway either via registry or api to get some basic info on the currnent playing file in windows mediaplayer? or from the explorer window when the file is clicked to be played
What i would like to get is artist and song title
I have a small app i have written to get lyrics from lyricwiki - my aim is not to have to start the file in any differnt way than just double clicking the file as i may decide to get lyrics mid way through a song so my app will just store that info encase i want to look for lyrics
I am using vb.net visual studio 2005

I guess this is a reference issue, but I have added references to WMP libraries (axinterop.wmplib.dll and interop.wmplib.dll). The WMP works on the XP machine, but not when called from my application.I have searched the web now for 5 days and changed references, and reinstalled the media player on the XP machine, but nothing works.

View 3 RepliesI had an old vb2008 program that had a working wmplayer component. I upgraded the project to vb 2010 and now it doesnt work, i get the error:
Code:
System.InvalidOperationException was unhandled
Message=An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.WMPLib, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. I added the wmp.dll in the COM components in the toolbox.
I cant get it to work.
I have 64bit windows, but the app im developing needs to work of 32bit (and 64 bit if possible). also windows 7.
I added a new form and tried to drag the windows media player component onto the form and it showed an error and would not add it to the form it said.
Failed to create component 'AxHost'....unable to load one or more of the requested types.
The weird thing is if i open a new project ad=nd add the wmp control to the form it works and debuig runs fine too!
I inserted wmp active x some buttons for my online streaming links and i created a button for fullscreen.
To enter in fullscreen while the stream is running i used this code Me.AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.fullScreen = True But when i click the button while the player is connecting to stream i get an error like this:
See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I was wondering how programatically to pause the windows media player component and how to get and set the windows media player current song position.I only know the basics with windows media player component like

It said on a forum somewhere

All works fine until i take the .exe file and change directory, desktop etc.[code]...

View 2 RepliesI have been looking all over trying to find a sample to guide me through burning a basic audio or data cd using the windows media player sdk. I have been using the library at msdn as a guide so far but I am stuck at where they tell me to:
"Before you begin burning a CD, you must first call QueryInterface through an IWMPCdrom pointer to retrieve a pointer to the IWMPCdromBurn interface. By using the isAvailable method, you can determine whether a particular CD drive can burn CDs, whether there is a CD in the drive, and how the CD can be used."
I do not see any queryinterface iniwmpcdrom properties and vb.net doesn't support pointers.. so not sure what to do Does anyone have any samples?
