I want to be able to go open URL in wmp and put in http://mycomputer:8090 and have it play a media file ... like it does if i host the media file on a web site...sofar i have:

How do you pass a wav file to a mediaplayer via a memory stream? In other words is it possible to pass a stream instead of a url to play a wav file?
View 9 Repliesin an winForm app in VS2010 win 7 compiling to x86, I try to do what Alvas.Audio seems to work. See (c# ex: [URL] for reference.
Dim data() As Byte = wr.ReadData(second * i, second)
The result give me data.length()=0. I do not have any exception, I can read format from it and whatever reader I use I got this problem.EDIT : After some tests, it seems like the uncompressed file I create in the first step (in PCM format, with .wav extension) can not be recognized by the Alvas.audio library for the second step. I must miss something around Audio file markups or something alike.
Here is the code that might be the source (basically this is step 1):
Dim functOut As String = String.Empty
Dim wr As Alvas.Audio.IAudioReader = Nothing
Dim fs As IO.FileStream = Nothing

im working on a little app for my self, to make my life a little more convenient. I have some media keys on my laptop, and I would like to use them with itunes while it is minimized. I found a app that did it for me a long time ago, but cant seem to find it now. But I would like to try my hand at my own, and I've managed to do so, but, my app has to be in focus for it to work. is there any way to still detect when these media keys are pressed while my app is out of focus?
View 9 RepliesIm making a desktop player for a online web radio, and for the program I wanna make it show all the stream info. Like the stream name, and such. However I dont know how to do this? I looked everywhere
The server url is setup like this "[URL]" And it has all the stream info and that there. So is there a way I can get the info from there onto like say a label? Live updates btw.
I am messing around with the WMPLib component provided by Windows Media Player 12 (wmp.dll) in VB.NET with .NET Framework 3.5 SP1.
I am trying to retrieve a media item from my media library based on its name (assuming there are no duplicate names). At the moment, I'm grabbing the entire media library, and looping through every media item, and quitting the loop when I've found the correct media item. This works well (except for when a media item with that name cannot be found), but I was hoping there was a more efficient way of doing this.
Here is my code so far:
Public Class WMPTest
Private myWMP As WMPLib.IWMPCore
Private myMediaCollection As WMPLib.IWMPMediaCollection
[Code]......
So what I really want is a way to optimize findTrack() to do its thing without looping through the entire media library (which could be huge).
I have created a media player (vb.net 2005) using the media player control. Plays fine when using open dialog box and url. I have set my player as the default player but when I click on a media file, the player will open but not play. I am sure it has to do with on open event and coding the url to see the selected file just like any other media player out there.

View 1 RepliesI'm loading blobs out of a database as a byte array and I put them in a memory stream so that I can load them into an xmldocument for parsing.However there are blobs that have multiple root nodes, this causes the parser to blow up.My solution is to just make a new root node that encompasses the whole blob. I can add onto the end just fine with a streamwriter however I can't figure out how to add onto the beginning.How can I prepend to a stream?
Update:I was having too much trouble getting this to work. The "XML" I was extracting was not proper XML and I kept on having to add more and more regexes to remove bad XML before the XmlDocument Load. I ended up using the HtmlAgilityPack to parse out my valid sections of XML and I put those inside their own xml documents.
I'm writing a VB.net application (but you can answer in C# if you want, no problem) that uses a 3rd party .NET library. In particular, one method in this library takes an IO.Stream as input (among other things) and writes the results of its processing to said stream. My problem is that the method CLOSES the stream after writing to it, so I can't read back the data that it wrote in it!To be more specific: it works, of course, if the stream is a FIeStream , since it writes the data on disk, but what if I want to read the data directly to memory? I tried using a MemoryStream, but as I said, when the method returns the stream is already closed, and I can't read back anything from it.
Imports System.IO
Public Class CloseHijackedMemoryStream
Inherits MemoryStream

I have an application written in .NET 4.0 that needs to load in memory a native DLL (written C). At the moment I am using a P/Invoke call to LoadLibrary passing the path where the DLL is located. This works, but due to the fact that this DLL comes from a DB, I would like to know if it is possible loading it through a stream, avoiding then the necessity to store the DLL somewhere in the filesystem.

Now, I would like to overlay one more image, but this is based on a user's input from a textbox. So, to get that image, we need to take the user's input, and get the respective resource file. I do it as follows:

The overlay works correctly. So question is: Why is the overlay not working from the stream? Edit: It turns out that the overlay does actually work, but seems to overlay an enlarged image rather than the true size. Would there be any reason for this?
I have created a httpwebrequest connection to a streaming API after trying a tTCPClient which just never ended up working. My concern is whether my code is correct and that I am actually reading in new data and that the connection is maintained. Initially I had been reading into a buffer and just loaded everything into a file after max size, but figured it would be simpler to read a line, since each entry was being sent delimited by line feeds.
rStream = webrequest.GetResponse().GetResponseStream
rStream = New GZipStream(rStream, CompressionMode.Decompress)
If rStream.CanRead then

It looks like I am continuously reading and not sure if I am reading redundant data here. Also another question is that if I were to use a thread to appendToFile, would that maintain the connection to the stream?

I've downloaded ZLIB.NET from here and the example VB.NET code they provide works fine. It's very short so I'll paste it here for reference:
vb
Public Shared Sub CopyStream(ByRef input As System.IO.Stream, ByRef output As System.IO.Stream)
Dim num1 As Integer
[Code]...
Note that the CopyStream() subroutine is identical. The problem is that although decompressing seems to work fine, compressing does not. If I take a byte stream, compress it and then decompress it using the above code, I get a truncated version of the original stream (as an example, a 360485 byte stream becomes 311518 bytes). The resulting bytes match the original stream up until the point where it's cut off.
The only information I can find about streams being truncated is due to missing stream.Flush() commands but the output stream is flushed in the CopyStream() subroutine.
