Is it possible to limit the sound of just my program so that the other programs that are running(like wmp or itunes) still play at the same sound?
This would be VERY helpful

It depends on the SoundCard. Some support multiple sources. My laptop plays background music, but when a beep comes thru, the source stops for a second or two.
ok well do most of the recent pc sound cards allow this?

Most computers alow multiple sounds to play at the same time.
But it's a software thing, not a sound card problem.
Lets say your sound card would allow only ONE application to play sound at one time.
Then in order to have multiple sounds, windows can open the sound "connection", and mix all the sounds from all the applications into that one connection it has, so therefore even is sound card would not support it, you can go around it (But windows has to go around it).
So, it short, Yes, you should be able to play sounds from multiple programs.
Thanks Then how would i be able to change the sound of just my program?

No idea...
Actually, ever since i started to do sound programming, it never hapend that what I did in my program affected the other programs.
How do you play the sound now ?
well at the moment its a flash movie thats playing the sound(more like a whole bunch of different games) But what I did do was take the code from a media player for the sound and intergrated it into the program. But the sound isn't just for the program it changes the master sound control instead. :( Im sure that theres a way to change the sound of the program but im not sure how.

Are you talking about the volume of the sound ?
That would be cool but I really just want to be able to either have the sound on or off. I know changing the volume would be a much harder task so no just to beable to "turnoff" any sound coming from my program
