Hello,
It's been long time that I'm investigating on how to play Avi file
from memory, with no success.
What I'm trying to do is to get a scrambled Avi file to memory, fix
same data and then playing it as Avi file. An alternative way is
encapsulate the binary data into the exe file with a recourse file and
than playing it.
Any one has any idea how solve the problem? Any sample code or links?
(I'm working with Windows Media Player)
Thank you very match,

Is this question really related to VB.NET?

I think this was the right answer, but I am always looking if there is

Hi Shlomi -- It's been long time that I'm investigating on how to play Avi file from memory, with no success.

See AniRes.zip on http://www.mvps.org/vb/samples.htm for a (VB4) class module that
supports playing it from a RES. Old, sure, but the ideas remain valid.
Any one has any idea how solve the problem? Any sample code or links?

Hmmm, WMP? That sounds like overkill. I sure wouldn't want to burden users with
that, if at all possible to avoid.

Thanks for the response Karl,
Why is it overkill? Is it the overhead of WMP? What control do you
suggest (with the same functionality – play, stop, pause, back,
forward, time remains…)?
And about the link, the sample project needs the MsgHook object; What
is it?

Hi Shlomi -- Thanks for the response Karl,

Well, given those requirements, perhaps it's not overkill. If you were just
displaying an animation on a "wait awhile" dialog, it'd definitely be more than you
wanted. But you can control AVIs pretty well with source alone. Just depends how
much you want to dig in and get your hands dirty. I think the sample I pointed you
to will support most of your needs, but it's been a *long* time (VB4ish) since I
wrote it so I'm pretty fuzzy. <g>
But yeah, in general, I think WMP is a *lot* of baggage to carry along with your app.
Tough to redistribute, and even tougher to insure a common codebase. Not to mention
the ugly DRM issues that get involved with later releases, which will likely cause
many to refuse to load versions later than 7.1 or so.
And about the link, the sample project needs the MsgHook object; What is it?
That's a message-hooking control that's freely available
( http://www.mvps.org/vb/controls.htm). You can also use your own hooking routines,
since VB5. The HookMe sample on my site is one way.

Instead of a beep sound playing as an alarm or reminder I would like to be
able to play a more interesting sound. On the web, I found and tried a
sound routine that uses the SOUND.DRV but it does not work for me.
Maybe it would be best to try to play a small mp3 or wav file instead - does
VB 6.0 have built-in support for sounds like that?

Hi,
I'm just trying to play a *.wav file, making use of the unmanaged function
"sndPlaySoundA" in winmm.dll, but I still got one question: How can I avoid,
that the sound file itself has to be seperate file in a specific directory,
but instead 'integrate' it in my application?
Thanks

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.

Hi,
I'm writing a simple wav player (like winamp) and using the

Using winform buttons, I can begin playing the sound and stop half-way
through the sound using:
myPlayer.Play() and myPlayer.Stop() methods which works great, but i
want to know when the sound actually stops playing (so I can change my
button's picture). If I raise a custom event after the myPlayer.Play()
