Little Audio Player - CodeProject

Sample Image

Introduction

The article I will present is nothing much really. I just tried to make a very good copy of Winamp. The SDK can easily be found on here with full support even for Linux OS-s and with all the documentation you need.

Using the code

The code is really very easy to use. The functions from the FMOD SDK look like this:

FSOUND_Sample_Load(
int index,
const char *name_or_data,
unsigned int inputmode,
int offset,
int length
);

FSOUND_PlaySound(
int channel,
FSOUND_SAMPLE *sptr
);

The SDK from FMOD is very useful. The thing I liked about it is that it loads and decodes a static sound file into memory. This includes such files as .WAV, .MP2, .MP3, .OGG, .RAW and others. There is no big deal to explain about the code because it is all in the documentation. I posted this article for the ones that need a very powerful and easy to use SDK for game developing.

use this code: first of all, put this in your main function: System.Media.soundPlayer song = new System.Media.soundPlayer(); song.SoundLocation = "PUT WHEREVER YOUR SONG IS IN HERE"(); song.Load(); and when you want to play your sound, put this code: song.Play(); NOTE: this will only work with wav files!!!

FMOD's commerical license isn't free

What's the point of doing a project, that is basically an advertisement for some non-free software. Any example that requires non-free third-party software is going to be mostly useless. This is just clogging up my google searches for a real solution.

Memory leaks

This code has 2 problems: Trying to load the file from the list songs[sel + 1]. The Accelerator function will never return. Old dog learning new tricks!

the whole idea is not to return if you look more careful. and what about songs[sel+1] it loads very well gabby

Re: Memory leaks

your function: Accelerator() is started in a new thread that is never terminated and therefore causes a memory leak when the window is destroyed. songs[sel+1] attempts to open an empty filename when it gets to the end of the list. Old dog learning new tricks!
