View 4 RepliesI have searched the web for code relating to changing the system volume, muting the system volume, and outputing the current level of the volume as an integer, using VB.NET.
All the code that I have found either doesn't work, or is very long.
I was just thinking if there is any component which monitors sound output. My intention is to recognize a particular sound coming out from my soundcard. I know its an issue about the driver of my sound card but is there a way I can get atleast noise level coming out of my speakers and maybe draw a graph and detect the peak at when the sound is played?
View 7 RepliesI have an application that plays wav and mp3 files using the Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio()function. It works fine, and I can easily set the volume level of the playback... within limits.
That limit is the system volume level. I can set the playback level for the mp3, but if the system volume is muted or set real low it may still play softly.
So how do I set the master volume level, including making sure it isn't muted?
How can I get the master volume level in Visual Basic? Must work on Vista and 7

View 2 RepliesI'm making a media player that is using the Windows Media Player component and I have the visible property set to false. I'm going to make all of the controls but one I'm having trouble with is the scroll bar. with the scroll bar if you move up the track bar up a little it should increase the volume like the one on the component. The code that I though was AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.CtlControls. but there was nothing there that could be used to control the volume.

I have a form with a panel on it (among other controls). I am trying to load picture boxes into the panel (in an attempt to make a star grid). Using the code below, I get a "Top-level control cannot be added to a control." error on the "Parent = Me.Panel7" line.
Searching for this error, I came across a solution to change the TopLevelControl property of the panel to FALSE....but I then get an error "TopLevelControl is read only".

View 2 Repliesi recently downloaded a demo game "Delta Force Xtreme 2 BETA". the game it's self, looks like vb3 does when compared to vb.net 2oo8.. one thing about it, on the startup screen, it plays a decent track of music..
i want to record that sound, in wav format, i guess, directly from my speakers. i googled all day, hoping to learn something about playing/recording sound, and i got nowhere.. so i finally decided to post here, after searching the forum for answers, again, without any luck..
i'm not looking for links to sites that the code is not tested before the link is posted.
just a form with 3 buttons. 1 to record, 2 to stop and save, and 3 to play. again, the sound should be recorded directly from the speakers.
I have 2 apps and i want to controll their sound levels externally. Ex. 1 app is sound player and another one is GPS soft. I need to detect that GPS sends sound bits to audio card and at that moment reduce the sound level of audio player application. I would assume that could be done through winAPI but im not 100% sure.
View 4 RepliesA simple class that plays a tone of varying ampliture, frequency and duration through the PC's speakers:
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Media
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Beep.Beep(1000, 1000, 1000)
[Code]...
This class uses SoundPlayer.PlaySync which has a 4 MB stream length limit, so the longest duration is 24000 milliseconds. You can try SoundPlayer.Play for longer durations, but allow plenty of time for it to complete.
there are many C# things for this but I DONT KNOW C#, this link has FOUR C# PROJECTS - when it is posted in this forum:[URL]..it is ticking me off that all of the volume control i can find is in, yet again, C#!
please help, i NEED something to mute/unmute mic on button click and speakers on button click

View 2 RepliesI have to handle concurrency control and I used SqlClient.SqlTransaction with IsolationLevel.Serializable level. In that transaction, I do 3 works:
1. Select the latest updated time from a record of a table
2. Compare the latest updated time with a stored time paramater
3. If the result form comparision is "same" I will update that record
But my problem is, when 2 transactions is run at almost the same time.

Is it possible to play 8 different and individual mono wave files to a 7.1 (8 channels) audio system using vb.net? (I undestand that the .1 speaker is the subwoofer and I'm not yet sure it can be replaced with an ordinary speaker.) The playing should start simultaneously and the files can be of different size/length.Is this something that should be done using win API functions if it can be accomplished at all.I just re-installed my old VB6 which I need to ugrade and vb.net would be the easiest for me so I placed this Q here.
