I tried to play music on my windows media player yesterday and couldnt. a
little red x appeared to the left of the music file and it said," Windows
Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound
device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it
might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."
I went to the sounds and audio devices properties window to discover it says
that i have no audio device plugged in! If anyone can help me with this
problem, I would be very grateful.

Unless this has some hidden relevance to .NET, please post to a different

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...

how can I play sound file in a .aspx page written in C#?
I try to use the code like the following. But whenI call the play function
play("sound.wav", this.SND_ASYNC)
my computer give out "be" sound instead playing the file
(same code works fine in a windows application written in c# , that mean
there is nothing wrong with my sound card.)
thanks

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

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.....

Hi,
Is there a cross-browser way to play short (< 25K) sound files without
spawning new windows or embedding any visual controls on the page? I
would like to click a button and hear my short sound.
Thanks for your help, - Dave
ps - Searching Google turned up stuff for Netsacpe and IE 3, but I was
hoping more for IE 7 and Firefox.

I then tryed to use the MovieClipLoader class so that once the swf was loaded the sound would be played. What is strange though is that when the swf has loaded i can return a valid...

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
