I am trying to create a basic application that will allow me to open a .wav file and let me adjust the volume of the actual file: like raise the volume by 30% or 10% or some type of other measurement.
I'd like to then re-save the .wav file with the adjust volume.
How can i adjust the volume through vb.net codesomething really simple (if only in C#, that'll work too)
View 2 RepliesIs there any way to adjust audio volume directly using .net?
I can only find C++ coding which, sadly means nothing to me.
I would like to be able to record the current Audio Volume setting, change it (up or down), play a *.wav file, then return it to it's original level.
I've been digging around but I can't seem to find anyway to adjust the volume controls (the windows general ones) using VB .NET.Basically, I want to make a program that's always on top that allows me to changemute the microphone and the other volume values on a specific device - not necessarily the one set as default.
I got this weird feeling that I'm missing something quite simple but I simply could not find anything. I saw some media players and such but nothing similar to what I was looking for.
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.
View 2 RepliesIs there any way to adjust master audio volume directly using .net?
I can find C++ coding which, sadly means nothing to me. There's also quite a lot out there for VB4, 5 and 6 but I can't get any of that to relate to .net. Most of those seem to want to invoke the 'Slider' via the mouse which is not what I'm after.
I would like to be able to: -
Record the current Audio Volume setting,
Change it (up or down),
Play a *.wav file, then
Return it to it's original level.
I've had some success with 'AxWindowsMediaPlayer' but only with it's own increase / decrease functions. I can only get it to increase the volume as far as the main system volume is set, so if that's at zero I get no output at all. As for part one of my requirement, record the current level, I've got nowhere with that at all. I tried putting the one file I want to use in resources but can't find how to access it, I have had to put the file in a folder and call it from there, it works but it seems a little crude.

I need to adjust the volume of this audio clip to make it blend with other system sounds (also played from My.Resources). I've tried looking this up in the help screens and found nothing. Is it possible to do?
.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.POWER_TEST_COMPLETE, AudioPlayMode.Background)
I have been trying to find a code that would allow me to use a slider to adjust the users actual computer volume. Is this even possible?

In the recent versions of Visual Basic it is much easier but in VB2005 it is a little more involved from what I have read on previous posts.

View 1 RepliesI have a program which draws a U.S. map on the screen. This display looks great on my wide-screen (16:9) monitor, but it looks a little stretched horizontally on my wife's standard (4:3) monitor. Is there some way I can tell VB to automatically adjust the picture when a standard resolution is being used?
If not, am I correct in thinking that standard definition monitors are going the way of the dinosaur, much like is happening with TV's, and in the future we'll be seeing more and more wide-screen monitors.
My application communicates with DB's, images, etc. which are located on our company server/domain.
In real-world use, the app is used only by users on this server/domain. I have connection strings and various other settings which point to the sever for the user. While I'm developing/testing, I may or may not be connected/authenticated to the server/domain. There are many times when I am not.
Currently, I manually change each setting to point to a local address containing copies of needed items when I'm not on the server/domain.My goal is to develop a method to automatically determine whether that domain is available. If not, adjust settings as needed in code. This is for my benefit, while developing.
I'm fishing for various methods/techniques people have developed or use to accomplish this.

View 2 RepliesI 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.

View 6 RepliesSo I'm a bit new to the whole Vista/7 audio setup. My understanding is that a new "mixer" is created for each application.

I was looking at the Endpointvolume API however I cant get it to work for me :(. Does anyone have a vb.net demo of how to harness this API?
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).
I have the following code.
Imports System
Imports System.IO
Public Class frmUpdater
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.
It seems like this would be a very easy thing to accomplish, but, from what I can tell, it's most definitely not. My OS is Windows 7. All I need to do is get the current volume/audio level - the master volume. When you click the little speaker icon in the task bar and change the volume - I need that number. All I need to do is get the current volume and assign it to a label. So if the volume is at 74 when the application starts, I need my label to display 74. I've been searching for days now for a way to do this and I'm starting to get frustrated. I've looked everywhere. I've tried 3 different classes, at least a dozen different codes, assorted imported dll's- none of it even came close to what I need. From what I can tell, the current methods are all designed for windows xp. I need a way to do it in windows 7.
View 7 Repliesget 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.
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.

in my on the job training i need to develop a program (webinterface in later stage) that is able to work with the volume shadow copy service.after about a month of research i have found about nothing about how to program it using the sdk or something like that.so now im asking on forums if there is anyone who has experience with using it in own programs.so what does it have to do?first i would like to be able to get information about a volume that uses VSS. information like how many copy's were made, when were those copy's created. what files are included in the copy.my prefered langauge is C# but im not affraid to learn (more) about VB or C++
View 1 RepliesI 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.
