Hi
How To retrieve an Audio file from Sqlserver databse. I am using VisualStudio 2005 and Sqlserver2005. I have stored the Audio files as a Image datatype. can u send me the Code for how to do that. i have no clue of how to do that.OTE]
directX will play wav files too, and since all your methods do the same thing... you could just have 1 method, playSound, and it would play any sound that your system has a codec for.
also, where do you declare the variable "music" in these methods? They are initialized, but never declared.
A better way to do this would be to create a sound object so you could control volume, see the position, and create less objects, and you could wrap it in a try block for unknown formats with a error event to notify the program that a sound with an unavailable codec was attempted to load.
Thanks for contributing.
Hellow, I am trying to play mp3 file using above code... but I can not understand what is music? I mean where should I declare music? and what should I declare music as? If I write the code as it is, It shows an error on music :
"music" = new Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio(Location);
"music".Play();
I need help about this..
Your addition of double quotes turned what should have been the name of an object into a string constant...
music = new Microsoft.DirectX.AudioVideoPlayback.Audio(Location);
music.Play();
