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'd like to add music to one of my VB.Net 2010 applications. My preference would be an MP3, but if necessary I can convert to WAV. What's the easiest way to add and play a clip of music via VB.net 2010?
View 2 RepliesIs it possible to get the currently playing song. For example I am trying to make an app that will get the current song playing and get more info about that song. My problem is I am not sure how to do this as I want this to work in any music playing program not just in windows media player

View 7 Repliesplaying an audio file that has been selected by the user.
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:
Private Sub btnChoose_Click
OFile.ShowDialog()
If OFile.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK Then

How can i make the play button disabled if the music is playing in the background and when i hit the stop button, the Play button becomes enabled? And the music in the background is from my resource in a .wav file format.

View 2 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?
View 6 RepliesI'm working on a personal project and so far everything is going perfect. Almost. I have a problem with getting music file info based off of its file path. I.e. "
C:UsersUSERetc." The only things I would need from y'all would be how to get the song's Artist(s) and Name (maybe there's something similar to 'AxWindowsMediaPlayer.currentMedia.getitemInfo("Information")' without actually having to play the song?
After I get this information, I would like to know how to add it to a ListBox as this: "[Artist] - [Song Name]", but I can do the text part if I know the getting-the-information part and adding-the-info-to-listbox part.
For stopping by, is there a way to detect when a sound file (WAV) stops playing?
e.g.> There is a FORM with a PLAY button on which is coded to play a WAV file. But how does VB detect when the WAV file has finished playing?
Here is the code I have on the PLAY button
My.Computer.Audio.Play("test.wav", AudioPlayMode.BackgroundLoop)
My program turns on and off external relays from the parallel port. I need to find a way to activate the relay only while a wav file is playing and de-activate the relay when the wav file stops playing.

I would like to try to make a program similar to Zune or iTunes. To do this, I need to access a music file's information (the kind which can be found in Properties>Details.) Can someone help me with accessing this information?My idea is to have the user open one or more music files and have their display names go into a ListBox, and when you select an item, TextBoxes or Labels would display the information. If I were to use TextBoxes, then I would like to be able to save the information if it is changed. I do not need help in actually playing the song, just how to access the information (i.e. Artist, Album Artist, Album, Song Name, Year, etc.)
View 4 RepliesI started making a program, and I wanted to insert music to play. i just added music to the resources and used the code my.computer.audio.play(my.resources.name_of_the_file and so on. this worked perfectly until I added the 5th song. the resource file became to large and vb said it was corrupt. so I thought of a new way: making a music file opener. I made a code so a window opens where you can select your .wav files. that all worked, but I couldn't get it so the music would start automaticly or that it would actually play. this is the code I have so far:
vb.net
Dim Open As New OpenFileDialog()
Open.Filter = "Wav [*.wav*]|*.wav"
Open.CheckFileExists = True
[Code]....

View 4 RepliesI'm developing an application for editing the MP3 tags, such as title, album, But I wanted to make possible to edit the file rating, with the file URL, just like it is when you use the windows properties dialog or the windows explorer.
However, I have looked in the web, searched in StackOverflow, but I have found nothing.
I have been working off and on for a year on my own media browser that I created in VB.NET. My program will play MP3 playlists as well as supporting drag and drop
Getting fileinfo of an mp3 is no problem but I have discovered that it is more complex when I try to get file duration of video files (.avi,.mpg) etc.
My code listed below uses a timer. In order for me to get a video duration value, I must actually play the file in axwindowsmediaplayer1 for one second. This seems not practical.
I have seen many examples on the internet in C# that read video metadata without need to play/load the file. Why are there no examples in vb.net of this? Is it too difficult to achieve in vb.net?[code]...
I have done an extensive search before posting this question, using many different search parameters without success at finding an answer.Using Visual Studio 2008 Express VB:My program requires a notification when a wav file has finished playing, a media player song list will not suit my needs.I have used System.Media.SoundPlayer, Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound and My.Computer.Audio.Play to play a wav file. All work well at playing and stopping the requested wav. So far, I have not found a methode to capture an event when the wav has ended. DirectSound stops playing when the form has lost focus, so I dont think that I can use it. Audio.Play AudioPlayMode.WaitToComplete only holds up other operations and I dont want to create multiple threads.
