I was wondering if it was possible to use Visual Basic .NET and perhaps the WMP Interop DLL to get the active song from Windows Media Player, and maybe the playlist that's currently on it? I did a quick Google search and found a bunch of jargon that wasn't related (such as making my own MP3 player using WMP Interop
View 5 RepliesVB.NET Visual Studios 2010 or 2008 only!I have searched like crazy and can't find how to get the wmp current playing song Title, Artist and Album names.
I would like to later bring this to Post to Facebook and Twitter ONLY when that button is clicked.
I have already tried things like this: (From the internet)
Dim zArtist As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Artist")
Dim zTrackTitle As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Title")
Dim zAlbum As String = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.currentItem.getItemInfo("Album")
I'm looking to make a VB.net app that gets and displays the artist and title of a song,file size,file path playing in Windows Media Player. I'm not looking to embed the player in my app, just pull data from the already existing window.I've tried sooooo much other code, but this is currently what I have. I'm at my wits end.Imports WMPLib
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
[code].....
How would I make the Windows Media Player element in visual basic play the next song after the current one is done. I know you can do it with a playlist but how would I do it with out any kind of list boxes or stuff like that. To browse for the files i use a open file dialog.

View 1 RepliesIm working on a media player for my work. It is suppose to be a song randomizer. I do have this mostly working. My issue is getting it to correctly switch songs when one ends. I just dont know why it is half working and half not. So my issue, after much debugging, which i have kept in my code i will post, i have found that when the song changes, the song does change, the index in the listbox goes up one and the 2nd song starts playing. I should note that i do have the code for playing the next song.

I have made a program that loads all the songs on my computer into a listview and plays them at random (at least that is what I want) right now I have them moveing to another list and removeing them from the current list so that none are played twice but I can't figure out where to put the code to make it wait until one song stops before starting the next song. is there a media completed function or something that I'm missing?

View 11 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:

View 39 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.
I have looked all over the internet to find specifically what the title says and i cant find anything that will work and is what i want, it's mostly all vb6. so even more specifically i am creating a program that captures screenshots of the "axwindowsmediaplayer" control at what ever frame or part of the video it's on. i also noticed that there is a command in the little menu when you type in "axwindowsmediaplayer.capture" i don't know how to use it?

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 1 RepliesI want to play the next song from my listbox when the current song is finished. This is what I've tried:
If AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.playState = WMPLib.WMPPlayState.wmppsMediaEnded Then
ListBox1.SelectedIndex += 1

AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.Ctlcontrols.play()

It changes the index of the listbox, but it doesn't play the new file. The file exist and there's no problem playing it the normal way.
