Playing Wave File From Resource Dll Using DirectSound?
Aug 6, 2011
I have used DirectSound to play a wave file in my application using the function CreateSoundBufferFromFile. It works perfectly.Now I want to play files from a resource dll file. I have created 1n2v32.dll file having nearly 100 small wave files named 1,2,3... I can play them using LoadLibraryEx, PlaySound & FreeLibrary.Now, I am trying to use CreateSoundBufferFromResource function from DirectSound api to play these files. I get Run-time error '432': File name or class name not found during Automation operation I used the following code to create the buffer.
Set LDSB = LDS.CreateSoundBufferFromResource(App.Path & "1n2v32.dll", "14", BufferDesc, gw)

I have a program that speaks wave files. This works problemless with the Soundplayer class with the following code:
Sub MyPlayWav(ByVal WavFileName As String, ByVal StartPos As Long, ByVal EndPos As Long)
Dim wp as new SoundPlayer
wp.SoundLocation = WavFileName
wp.Play
End sub
The soundplayer does however not seem to have a method to play the wave from position StartPos to position EndPos and achieving just that would mean quite a reduction in downloads of these files.
The soundplayer does have a stream object, and that does have a seek method, suggesting that there might be a way to accomplish this, but how?
I plan to include other media files as I am developping the project, and I guess I will be confronted with the same problem.

I have a VB.NET application that crashes on a client's computer with a BSOD error... KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR.This error occurs at a point where my program does two things:
Locks the computer
Plays a sound in BackgroundLoop mode
For locking the work station, I am just using this:
<DllImport("user32")> _
Public Shared Sub LockWorkStation()
End Sub
For playing the sound, I am doing this:
My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.ResourceManager.GetStream("somesound"), AudioPlayMode.BackgroundLoop)
Now, this sound loops until the user logs back in. My software detects the session state switch and stops playing the sound. Sometimes when I log back in, the sound card plays garbage data for a split second, instead of the rest of the audio buffer. I get the impression that this has something to do with session switching.Could my client be having an issue where there is memory corruption occurring at the point of locking the computer?I apologize for the vagueness of this post... I am not sure where to begin as I cannot reproduce the problem myself.
Edit: If the sound is left to play on its own, even without locking the computer, eventually the computer will lock up and then bluescreen. Playing the sound while locking at the same causes it to happen sooner.
Edit #2: So I've seen it fail now. The sound loop starts playing correctly but quickly switches to looping of garbage data. It's as if it is just reading a random location in memory and looping that. Very strange behavior!

I was wondering if anyone could point me to a really good tutorial on Directsound.I don't know if trying to digest an API is a good thing for a beginner but I really need something that has a beginner in mind.I especially liked some of the Microsoft video tutorials on VB.NET so perhaps they offer some on Directsound?The goal is to stream a WAV file, (not just "play it") and I want to LEARN the process.

I am trying to convert a mp3 to wav and I need to know...What is the very first thing you see when you open a wave file up? the 2nd, the 3rd, 4th and so on. Is it the riff header or the riff header contents(ID, size, Type). I need this info for a Regex string that would look something like this...
'Frame/MaxFrame (PercentDone%) | CPU time/estim | REAL time/estim | play/CPU | ETA
Private Shared _regLine As Regex = New Regex( _
"(d+)/(d+)D+(d+)D+([d:]+)D+([d:]+)D+([d:]+)D+([d:]+)D+([d.]+)D+([d:]+)"

So, I re did my project in VB.NEt instead of C#. So, I put all the sound files in the resource files. I made a routine to play the sound file but it says that to make sure the sound file exists. Which it does because it played in the resource manager.Here's the sub routine to play the sound:
Dim sndplayer As New Media.SoundPlayer
Public Sub TestSound(ByVal snd As String)
My.Computer.Audio.Play(snd)

I am trying to figure out the numSamples in this:The canonical WAVE format starts with the RIFF header:
0 4 ChunkID Contains the letters "RIFF" in ASCII form
(0x52494646 big-endian form).
4 4 ChunkSize 36 + SubChunk2Size, or more precisely:
[code]....
This works fine for getting the wave file info, It just doesn't display the numSamples which I need.

I have a created a small application that records and plays audio. However, my application needs to save the wave file to the application data directory on the users computer.The mciSendString takes a C style string as a parameter and has to be in 8.3 format. However, my problem is I can't get it to save. And what is strange is sometime it does and sometimes it doesn't. However, most of the time it failes. However, if I save directly to the C drive it works first time everything. I have used 3 different methods that I have coded below. The error number that I get when it fails is 286."The file was not saved. Make sure your system has sufficient disk space or has an intact network connection".[code]

I have a resource file that I include in my shared code library that has all of my re-usable classes in it (all the resources go into their own namespace). Now, what is the best practice regarding resources... should I include them in the same DLL, or should I have a seperate resource DLL and/or are there any benefits from seperating them out into their own file.

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)

i am new to directsound. I was wondering if someone could point to a resource that explains how to load wav files and play them using directsound. I found one webpage that explains how to load wavs and play them but you load them by clicking a button and searching a window for the file; what I need is programmatic loading. I can't use simpler methods to play the wavs because I need multiple sounds playing at once and very fast execution times. If it isn't too difficult, perhaps someone could post some code.
