View 4 RepliesPlaying Multiple Sounds Without Using DirectX
Feb 1, 2010Is it possible to stream more than two sounds simultaneously in .NET without using DirectX?
To obtain foreground and background effects I currently use the following:
' Background music
Private bkMusic As New SoundPlayer(My.Resources.bkm)
[CODE]..................
SoundPlayer is a wrap around to the win32 API:
Private Declare Function sndPlaySound Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "sndPlaySoundA" (ByVal lpszSoundName As String, ByVal uFlags As Long) As Long
While for actual in game sound effects I am using a class that implements:
Private Declare Function mciSendString Lib "winmm.dll" Alias "mciSendStringA" (ByVal lpszCommand As String, ByVal lpszReturnString As String, ByVal cchReturnLength As Long, ByVal hwndCallback As Long) As Long
It works. 1 snd effect at a time overlapping / mixing with the background music. But I am on the hunt for a better method which allows me to stream multiple snd effects simultaneously. DirectX is not an option, because most people (my audience) don't have the SDK (software development kit)
Playing Sounds (.wav, .mp3, Etc) From Gamepad Input
Nov 22, 2009[URL]
I just got back into VB since being, at best, a hobby programmer with VB6. Wow, so much has changed since then, so I feel like I am starting all over again.
After much hunting and searching, I found that great code sample that shows the input from the game pad/joystick. (Finding visual basic 2008 and gamepad input information isn't easy!)
Now I want specific buttons to play a random file from a specific folder.
The application runs on a Netbook, which is a bit light on resources. I would prefer to play WAVs and MP3s with something that's less resource intense than windows media player. (Perhaps its very easy to do so from the code level. I've noticed WMP is so loaded with visualizations and so forth, its hard to turn all that crap off)

View 2 RepliesMultiple Sounds With Directx?
Dec 22, 2009i have a little project I have been working on over the past few days just a simple piano project, during making it I used directx sdk To allow me to play multiple wav files at the same time. everything worked out great got the piano working and was able to play some sound effects while I banged out a master piece on the piano . So the next step was to make an exe file , I knew that once I used directx sdk I might run into a problem when trying to make an exe to run on all my PCs that dont have directx sdk installed on them .
My question is it possible to make an exe that will allow my program to run on any pc even without directx sdk installed?

Deleting Controls (sounds Dumb)?
Oct 29, 2009I was transferring a lot of controls from one form to another and somehow along the way I ended up with a lot of "extra" controls and apparently when you do this they don't retain their Names so they are all default-type names (Label1, Textbox1, etc)I can see them all listed in the properties window dropdown box, but they are not on the form. Selecting them from the dropdown does not reveal where they are at on the form either.

How To Play Non Default System Sounds In .NET
May 12, 2011I want to play system sounds with .NET code in my app - no problem if I want to use Beep, Asterisk etc as I can just use: My.Computer.Audio.Play SystemSound(Media.SystemSounds.Asterisk)But what if I want to play something like 'Menu Pop-up'? This sound is off by default in the Windows Default Sound Scheme, but if the user has set this sound up to do something then I want to play it.The user could have assigned any wav file to this action so I want to find which (if any) sound they have assigned and play it. Compatibility with Windows versions back to XP is also essential.

My.Computer.Audo.Play("file.wav")
or?
Sound.PlayWaveFile("file.wav") from this class: http:[url]....etc they all don't work
They do NOT throw any exceptions, they just dont play the music, the test demo of the Sound Class works like a charm, its just not working in our project..same with My.Computer. Audio. Play.what could we have done to make it so that we can't play sounds from our application?
PS: this problem occurs on all of the computers we test it on, yet the normal sound-playing methods seem to work on all of those computers when they are implemented in other projects.. its just not working in these instances
