Playing multiple sounds

I have an application that has a music backgroung and also requires
sound effects, however when I play the sound effect the music stops.
How do i play two wavs at once?

(I am using the sndPlaySound function and would like to continue to do
so if possible.)

No problem, but it would be nice if you would post that as a reply and
not as a new thread.

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? Tom

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 peter

Is there a way in C# to play various sounds (WAV files) simultaneously? I also need to jump to the middle of the WAV files and start playing from there, not just from the beginning. Thanks.

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.
