View 2 Repliesaccording to the formula given by DdoubleD i resolve DSS audio file duration problem, but this time some dss file is more compressed and duration of these file different according to size of file. IS there is any technique in .net 2005 so that i can include any third party's player and find duration and other thing I tried to include DLL of these player but not compatible with .net..DSS file is basically dictation by doctor(olympus recorder is use to record dictation and it save these file in .dss format) I already included WMP.dll for MP3. But .dss is creating problem.
View 1 RepliesI've found solutions to determine the length of an audio file using WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer (which seems quite ugly), by using a physical file path, but nothing to determine the duration of an audio file stored in a VARBINARY field (SQL Server 2008 R2).I'm using .Net WebForms. Maybe it'd be a better idea to do this client side with jQuery, but what if I only want to expose some controls to the web browser based off of the duration?

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?

View 4 RepliesI have created my own application for organising my video library. when the application starts a datagridview displays all of the videos in my database. i can't get it to display the duration of each video. i assumed i'd be able to loop through each row in the datagridview and use the FileInfo class to look up the properties of each file and get the duration from there because if you look at the properties of any .avi and then click on Details you can see the duration of the video but i can't figure it out.

I need to find the duration of a video file. I am not talking about this. LenOfVideo = AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.currentMedia.durationThis will give the duration of a video when it is playing, I want to know the duration of ALL the video's in my List of video's so i can display it in the selection for the user. The currentmedia.duration will only give the duration when you play it and i have about a 100 media clips to play..

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 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 just wanted to be able to detirmine if the file that the user selected out of an OpenFileDialog is an audio file (mp3, mp4, wav, etc.)
I know that I can just use the filter property with the OpenFileDialog box, but I'm sure that there must be an easier way to validate the file the user chose and see if it's an audio file.
i'm trying to read the details information from various audio formatted files, most of which are mp3s. specifically i'd like to be able to read the title, artist, and # for a few hundred files that need renaming and resorting, so i'm trying to start with a single file.basically, if you view the properties of any mp3, and go to the details tab, all of this information is listed. i need to grab it programatically using visual studio 2010
View 3 RepliesI have been looking for a while now but I can't seem to find ANYTHING on editing audio files with vb.

View 1 RepliesI am currently developing a program that can read text to audio, I know there are already thousands of software out there but it is not in my country language. Now I have found a way to invent a similar program with high quality audio, text exchanges to wav file, and I made every word a wav file that corresponds to the word, I could type text into the textbox then I could read the corresponding wav file.
my problem is being able to highlight text while reading the text box, for example: type in the textbox: HELLO MY NAME IS JOHN, NICE TO MEET YOU. WHAT'S YOUR NAME! when read and mark the same time, if there are similar words in the previous line, then jumps back word marks and ignore next word. In our examples there are two words like: NAME, when read and mark it read and select the right until it reaches the next NAME and instead marked the first, then continues. If there are several words that are in the text, always highlights of the first word.
in directory C:Audio there is those word as wav file EXAMPLE: HELLO.wav + MY.wav + NAME.wav and so on. I do not want the mark back, i want it to select those who are not selected.
I am trying to write a little synthesizer program, and as a first step I am creating .wav files opened for reading and writing using the code below called from a button click event handler. The audo plays but once, no matter how many instances of the Audio.Play method are called. I also tried closing the file and then calling the Audio.Play method on the full path name. In each case, the audio plays but once. If I click the button again, the file will be played once more. The duration for the audio is one second, so I am sure that it is only being played once every time. I do not want to loop the data. The idea is that when the user plays a new note, I update the file and replay it with the new data. Since the file is recreated every time I click the button, I guess what I *need* is working, but I am still curious why I cannot replay the content of the file.
' Create a file stream object for reading and writing.
Dim FS As New IO.FileStream(fileNamePath, _
IO.FileMode.Create, _

I think I have posted my question in VB6 forum. Sorry for that...I am currently working with MIDI files.

I have a form and a class module.
the application plays a sound file from using a windows media player control on the form. it seems silly to me that you need to have a hidden visual control on a form rather than just using code, but that's another gripe.
previously, the code (in the form module) was :
Private Sub Something()
Call PlayMusic("filepath/filename.mp3")
End Sub

View 15 RepliesIs there an easy way to copy a resource audio file to disk?
it is very easy for an image file (in two steps for clarity):
Dim a11 As Image = My.Resources.Speaker
a11.Save(Image_Path & "speaker.png")
All the examples on how to do this with an audio file seem to be very long winded and there are a lot of short audio files that I want to copy.
There must be an easier way in a few lines of code.
Trying to insert a large audio file into an Oracle 10g database and keep getting this error:
ORA-01460: unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested
The byte array length of the audio file is 2702577. The procedure works with smaller array lengths, but not the larger ones.
Here is my code:

Dim oracleDataAdapter As New OracleDataAdapter
