playing 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
I have the API to play WAV files and it works, but how do I keep the music going even after a button is pressed on the form? When I press the button it plays a sound effect, and then the musi is stopped.
Is 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
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?
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.
i made a mp3 music player and i used listbox to let the users see what songs they have added but i want them t be able save and load their song list. How can i do that?
Hey 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?
After casually creating a program to manage media (music, films, photos etc.) I came across a lack of functions that could be solved be being able to identify the length/ genre/ album/ artist of the song in question. find these file attributes (using a database is out of the question due to lack of resources).I'm reading the song into a string array from the folder they are contained in with the code:
I created another form that had a pic and two simple buttons, one button plays music the other will stop the music if played and take you back to the previous form. My problem lies in when the users uses the windows "x" button to flose the form, the music does not stop. I have searched and failed and light that could be shed would be awesome.Apparently I saved the wrong file and am not on my VB box so this code is incorrect. I basically added the music to the resources, dim'd it and activated it with a button. The other button not listed in this code was set to "portal.stop()" and "Me.Close()"
Public Class frmFail Private Sub PictureBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles PictureBox1.Click Me.Close()
I started a thread about playing music. It works perfectly, but I wanted to know if there is a way for the song to be looped. I'm making an alarm clock, and if the user chose a short song, it plays once and then stops. I just wanted to know if there was a way to loop using the mciSendString.
im trying to play a flv file in project.1.The problem im having is when i add the Macromedia flash factory object i get the error "Failed to import the active X control-ensure it properly registered" which i have registered it to many time and still get the error.
Visual Basic 2010 Windows Forms Application I am trying to create an application that will allow a user to choose from a menu option in ListBox, click "Play" button, and the application will play music, and transition between 3 pictures.
I am a beginner on Visual Basic but was able to create the 'skeleton' of the application I need to build. Basically, it is an application dedicated to keeping a check on the vinyl I have. When I buy a new record, I want to effectively 'Add New Record' on Visual Basic and be greeted with a page consisting of various forms such as 'Artist' and Title'. Once these are filled in, I want to click 'Enter' and for all that information to be converted to one of the pages within my application.
Here's an easier look at it... There are LPs that have 10" and 12" sections. There are singles that have 7" and 12" sections.
In the 'Add New Record' page I want to also have a drop down list with the above elements in, once 12" LP is selected and all the other forms are filled in and I click 'Enter' - I want the application to send it to the 12" LP section of the application.
I decided to try the Code Analysis tool that came with VB2010 (at some levels). It produced LOTS of fascinating comments. Many of the comments make no sense, such as one about not disposing of a type on all paths when there is only one path that ends with an explicit call to object.Dispose. I think the analysis engine is looking at some of the calls, but they all return to the caller properly.
I have an open file dialog that shows when a button is clicked. Last night it was working fine. This morning I am testing some code and when I click the button to open the dialog the entire form is blank accept the dropdown for filename and the ok and cancel buttons. What happened? I have tried deleting the dialog and the put it back but it still does the same thing.
What i want to do is make a music player that will play a song in the .exe format, so an app will open and automatically play a song. This is to prevent ripping and copyright issues. I made a app using the WMP Com Component but that of course requires the file to be opened.
I'm trying to make a "Simon" game with four buttons labeled 1-4. The game is supposed to read the numbers out loud, but i have a problem with that. I have 4 wav files from google text-to-speech, each named 1-4. I made an number generator that can return like this "42331", and the game is supposed to play 4.wav, 2.wav, 3.wav, 3.wav and 1.wav.
Here's what I got so far. Public Class Form1 Dim rnd As New Random Dim i = 0 Dim level As Integer = 5 Dim nums As String [code] ..... It only plays 1.wav (the last in the sequence).
Is it possible to control a openfiledialog which opens in the webbrowser ( example: [URL]) i want to automaticly fill in the filelocation and than click 'Open'
VB.NET Dim audio As New Audio(Application.StartupPath & "est.wav", True) audio.Balance = 10000 audio.Play()
Which works great. But if I need to change that file, I get an UnauthorizedException because the I haven't disposed of it. But, if I add a dispose after .Play, it won't play.
