specify sound output with mci-statements

Hi!

Does anyone know, where i can specify a channel of my sound card to
play a mci-video?
Now, i play a video and the sound is on the on-board sound-output.
But i have a soundcard with 4 sound outputs and i want to specify where
to play the sound..

Can anyone help me?

Thanks.

Take a look at MVP Steve Orr's site. He has several nice wrapper classes
including one that handles MCI.

Hi, i am in search of a cddb module for Python on windows. I stumbled upon http://sourceforge.net/projects/cddb-py but couldn't use it since the mci.dll is compiled against Python2.0.

Hello, Does anyone have a working command string / usage to play audio data (WAV format) from RAM ? Basically, I have some random files that I can convert to WAV (RIFF) format very easily. I can write them out to disk (eg C:\Temp\test.wav) and then play them back with MCI. No problems there.

I'd like to know how to run AVI video files with sound in Access 2003. Microsoft's Animation ActiveX control doesn't play sound, so I tested Dev Ashish's fPlayStuff routine. This is failing with error code 263 - "The specified device is not open or is not recognized by MCI". Can anyone give me a workaround for this error code, or point me towards another AVI solution? TIA,

I am using MCI (winmm.dll) to read, record and playback sound. For now, I am doing this with disk files instead of realtime doing it straight from the memory. If I want to stream/relay/transmit this sound (file) on a Windows socket (not using FTP but TCP), can I read the file into a byte array? Because if it is possible then I can send it on the socket but the problems I foresee are: How will I repack it into the file. Will just reading...

I'm putting together a C# .Net forms project on win2k. The application requires some sort of horn sound. I've never implemented any audio in .Net, so I'm not sure how best to accomplish this. It's an application that works with a wireless barcode scanner, in a warehouse environment. The user could be potentially 20 or 30 ft. from the PC. If the user scans something improperly, the app should sound a 'horn' to notify the user. I'm trying...

Hi, Is there a way to play audio using MCI (I preffer MCI, but if you know of any others I'll be greatful) from a Filestream? I mean, I have a filestream to an audio file, can I play the audio? I can't access the file directly, so just using the MCI's MCI_OPEN command won't work. -------------------------------- From: Gidi Morris -----------------------

I'm adding a bit of sound to a simple game I've got going, and I want to have several sounds on at the same time, so I go looking to use the MCISendString commands and find they CRASH MY COMPUTER after moderate use. After a bit of searching the web for what I might be doing wrong I find the work around is to bring in the old MultiMedia ActiveX control from the .Com world and use it, so I added the three I need and no more crashes.....

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
