View 5 RepliesWhat I need is an application that can have several audio files open up, which in turn can be routed to any of the audio output devices (e.g. external audio card channels). See the attached image for an illustration.
View 1 RepliesBasically my program has a "shuffle" music feature:
vb For i = 0 To 26 num = randomObject.Next(0, 27) My.Computer.Audio.Play("C:UsersMcturtlesMusicSongs" & num & ".wav", AudioPlayMode.BackgroundLoop) Next
Which selects a random number 0 - 26 and selects the corresponding song.
And a straight play feature:
vb Dim counter As Integer Do Until counter > 26 My.Computer.Audio.Play("C:usersmcturtlesmusicsongs" & counter & ".wav", AudioPlayMode.WaitToComplete) counter += 1 Loop
All of these activated by a button(separate for each)
When I click one, it makes the program stop responding. I'm pretty sure it is the .WaitToComplete mode, but I can't find a way to make it continuously play without it. If you can find my error. Also if you could tell me a way to make the shuffle never play the same song twice, that would be awesome as well.
I used the code provided in the link below to implement the recognition of midi devices in my[URL]..I have an electronic keyboard, which is connected to a sound card from M-Audio (Fast Track Pro).This sound card is connected to the PC.By running the program, I have the option of selecting this sound card M-Audio for the audio device, and thus automatically have access to the keyboard that is connected to it.
Well, almost everything is working perfectly.The only error that is occurring is when I close my application.Actually my application ends up not actually closing, because it just hangs there in task manager.And it takes a long time (10 minutes), until the process ends.
I am trying to open an audio device using the waveOutOpen function in winmm.dll and receiving a WAVERR_BADFORMAT error. It was working fine when I was just using the WAVEFORMATEX structure alone but unfortunately this has the limitation of only handling 16bit audio and I would like to handle higher resolutions.

I'm developing a standslone system for my school project. I'm developing an audio management system which allow user to add audio files itself into database together with the audio information such as artist name and album year. I just started it few days ago and face some problems.. my song in the playlist wont continue to play after 1 finished and i need some idea on how to store the audio files into database ... in blob types may be?

I am working in visual studio 2010, framework 3.0.I want to enumerate the Audio Recording devices on Vista and Windows 7 PCs. With the help of Core Audio APIs, this is completed successfully. Now I want to change the default state of devices and also I want to set the state of Disabled device to Enable. In Core Audio APIs, it is not possible. So can I use the Registry to Enable the device or change any device to DEFAULT?On changing the default device from SOUND dialog, windows makes some changes of Binary values in registry Role:0, Role:1,ole:2under HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionMMDevicesAudioCapture {GUID}.
View 1 RepliesI want to get the hardwired serial number from the hard disk but NOT using WMI. I tried using WMI code, and it doesn't work on my machine for sure. So is there any alternative in .NET for finding the Serial Number of a physical hard disk?
View 8 RepliesI have a small embedded web server and to setup its network parameters I use a serial port, however this is giving me a lot of trouble due to USB to serial adapters (in some computers work in other doesn't).
However the other day I saw that Buffalo has a little program to find their NAS boxes (or network drives) when you don't know their IP address or got the wrong one so I assume they do it by looking for mac addresses.Is there any way of doing this with VB 2005 or higher? Basically I don't know the IP of the embedded server so I need to find it on a network, how do I find it?
a) I could do a general IP scan assuming it is on the same subnet than the host computer
b) if it has a different subnet... a general IP scan is not going to work, is it?

View 2 RepliesI am building a simple network browser that pings a specified range of IP addresses, and if a response is discovered, it gets the host name and MAC address of the device it pinged.My first question is how can I find the operating system of the device (if it's a computer)?My second question is, for devices that aren't computers e.g. a wireless printer or router, is there a way I can find out what type of device it is?
View 1 RepliesUsing the code below i will get all network interfaces wich are enabled and functional on the machine.
Private netIntrfc As NetworkInterface() = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()
For i As Integer = 0 To netIntrfc.Length - 1
If netIntrfc(i).OperationalStatus = OperationalStatus.Up Then
[code]....
But my problem is how to get the default one, the one(ethernet adapter) through wich user is connected to internet?I need to change some settings of default(through wich user is connected to internet) adapter. settings i change through registry so i could sample add same settings for each network interface but that could cause problems and makes no point then?
EDITED:for now i have done like code below, so if this can help someone other...
Dim u As UdpClient = New UdpClient(System.Net.Dns.GetHostName, 1)
Dim localAddr As IPAddress = CType(u.Client.LocalEndPoint, IPEndPoint).Address
Private netIntrfc As NetworkInterface() = NetworkInterface.GetAllNetworkInterfaces()

I just want to ask or I need some idea on how to convert wav files to mp3 and compressed the file to make the size smaller. I've search on the internet and find vorbis.dll as a reference object and lame.exe for converter. With regards to the audio compression, i downloaded monkey's audio software but doesnt have an idea on how to incorporate it.
View 2 RepliesIm trying to capture the audio played on my laptop. so i have searched the internet and found a source code for doing exactly that. the problem i have is that my audio device is not listed in the dropdown box (see picture) but it does when its run on windows xp (im running windows 7 x64) the goal of this application would be to capture my friends radio stream and save the individual played mp3's to a loction on my hard drive.(yes i have permission) i have included the source code so perhaps some 1 could have a look at it. (source code)[URL]
View 2 RepliesI've created an attribute, similar to the ToolboxBitmapAttribute, that allows you to associate an Icon or Image to a class.
To associate an image, the resource file base name, a type (to find the assembly), and the name of the resource are passed to the attribute constructor. I then use the ResourceManager to get access to the resource:
Dim rm = New ResourceManager(ResourceFileBaseName, passedType.Assembly)
Dim obj = rm.GetObject(resourceName)
This is fine except that I want the option to pass just the resource name in the constructor, and omit the resource file base name. Then I would pick up the resource from the default resource file. When I say default resource file, I mean the one when you start Visual Studio, open the property pages and click the Resources tab.
The problem is, when developing in VB.Net, the base name is 'RootNamespace.Resources', and when developing in C#, the base name is 'Rootnamespace.Properties.Resources'.
Where can I programatically find the name of the default resource file?
Update
What I can do is get a list of all resource names:
t.Module.Assembly.GetManifestResourceNames
I can then look for a name that ends with Resources.resources and use that to build the resource file base name.
How would I find the default internet browser like IE, Or Firefox on any computer?

View 7 RepliesI have a database application developed around Access with VBA,I have used the Speech SDK and developed an application that in conjunction with MSCOMM 6.0 library calls into a remote IVR system.It sends in the credentials and queries information in response to that IVR's verbal requests. All seems successfull except for one problem;I'm using a shared SR engine and its using the system microphone as its audio input, this in turn gets the sound from the speakers which are routed to the telephone line through the modem. Of course this has a number of disadvantages - noise added to the sound from the environment and sound quality degredation as well as speaker volume dependency.
I would like the SR engine to take its audio input from the modem in paralell with the sound that goes to the speakers (so we can listen in to the call as well). This means that I must route the system audio output to the SR engine audio input. It seems that I must use an InProc SR instance - however in VBA that type is not recognized - since the shared SR uses the microphone as input by default. there is some statement to the effect that it is difficult in Microsoft's Help file. I'm unable to set the SR audio input to the modem output stream in VBA.As needed I can accomplish the C++ interface using an ActiveX object or a DLL to expose the missing API to VBA?
I used a StreamReader and StreamWriter with UTF-8 encoding to find and replace chars in files. Some of the chars were replaced with the Unicode default char of � OR �. I found that for this I should have used encoding 1252 so I'm set for future changes but how do I fix the files that have been cluttered with the default char? Is there a way to do this with StreamReader?

I am writing a quick program to display the network information of a computer without having to run ipconfig or enter the TCP/IP settings on the network adapaters.I have managed to pull the computer name, local IP address and the external IP address, but I now need to get the default gateway, the subnet mask and the DNS resolvers.I have tried using the registry, but the key differs from computer to computer, so that method has been ruled out.

View 1 RepliesI'm using Visual Studio 2008 writing a Windows Forms project and I'd like to know a way to step around 'default instances' of forms. I don't like default instances, they constantly get in my way, and working in a team it's causing some really annoying confusion about the object identity of which form is actual in focus at this moment. This means I need to go threw the entire project (big) and remove ALL references to any 'default instance' of a form. But this is difficult to do as there's no errors or anything, it basically requires me to search for every text of "MyFormType." and then checking if it's accessing a default instance and fix it like that.
It'd be nice if I could just turn it off or something so I could
1) easily find all erroneous lines of code
2) avoid the accidental use of it in the future by anyone on the team
