I am doing an Audio editor, my recording is working but im not being able to start the timer and stop it when the recording is on. I got this so far

C#

private void Record()
       {
           mciSendString("Open new type waveaudio alias Sound", null, 0, 0);
           mciSendString("Record Sound", null, 0, 0)
           this.Rectimer.Enabled = true;
           Status_Label.Text = "Recording.....";
       }

C#

private void StopRecording()
     {
         mciSendString("pause Sound", null, 0, 0);
         this.Rectimer.Enabled = false;
         Status_Label.Text = "Stop Recording.....";
     }

im using one components which is the RecTimer

C#

private void Rectimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int TimeRec = (MicRec.IsRecording);
            this.lbl_timeControl.Text = string.Format("{0}", DisplayTime(Sp.PositionInMS));
        }
        private string DisplayTime(int ch)
        {
            DateTime ry = new DateTime((long) 1000);
            return ry.ToString("T");
        }

What is my error there that is no enabling me to start the timer when the recording starts?
Thanks in advance guys

Solution 1

Have you set the timer interval?
Can't see that in your code.

RecTimer.Interval is the property you want to set.
Its unit is in milli seconds so for one second you'd
do the following (e.g. in InitializeComponent())

Rectimer.Interval = 1000; //1000 milli seconds == one second

Hope this is a little bit clearer. ;)
Cheers

My timer interval is the Rectimer. isnt this setting it??

private void Rectimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int TimeRec = (MicRec.IsRecording);
this.lbl_timeControl.Text = string.Format("{0}", DisplayTime(Sp.PositionInMS));
}
private string DisplayTime(int ch)
{
DateTime ry = new DateTime((long) 1000);
return ry.ToString("T");
