[2005] Problems after converting this project

I downloaded this http://robydx.altervista.org/DirectX...ctSoundRec.zip it records voice but it converts with errors. They say for the parts that have errors (is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound'). I have DirectX SDK installed and don't know what the problem is I was wondering if somebody else could convert it in vb.net 2005 and see if it's just not working for me.

well this is some of the code I tried converting from that project but things llike CaptureBuffer get this error have errors (is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound').

VB Code:

Imports Microsoft.DirectX
Imports Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound
Imports System.Threading
Imports System.IO
 
Public Class Form1
    
    Dim cBuff As CaptureBuffer 'buffer di registrazione
    Dim th As New Threading.Thread(AddressOf checkD) 'thread che salva ad intervalli regolari i dati nel file
 
 
    Public PositionNotify(16) As BufferPositionNotify 'posizioni di notifica
    Public appNotify As Notify 'notificatore
    Public NotificationEvent As AutoResetEvent = Nothing 'gestore delle attese nel thread
 
    Dim captureBufferSize As Integer 'dimensione del buffer
    Dim notifySize As Integer 'dimensione della notifica
    Public NextCaptureOffset As Integer = 0 'prossimo intervallo di cattura
 
 
 
 
 
    Private WaveFile As FileStream = Nothing 'file wave
    Private Writer As BinaryWriter = Nothing 'scrittore del file
    Private SampleCount As Integer = 0 'bit catturati
 
    Private isRecording As Boolean = False
 
    Const nNotification As Integer = 16
 
 
    'guide del sistema
    Dim guide() As Guid
 
 
    Private Sub Rec_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Rec.Click
 
        'bit per sample
        Dim bitS As Integer
        If bit1.Checked Then bitS = 8 Else bitS = 16
        'canali
        Dim canali As Integer
        If canali1.Checked Then canali = 1 Else canali = 2
        'frequenza
        Dim freq As Integer
        If freq1.Checked Then freq = 48000
        If freq2.Checked Then freq = 44100
        If freq3.Checked Then freq = 22050
        If freq4.Checked Then freq = 11025
        If freq5.Checked Then freq = 8000
 
 
 
        Rec.Enabled = False
        stopRec.Enabled = True
 
 
 
        'descrizione del capBuffer
        Dim capD As CaptureBufferDescription
        Dim captureF As New Capture(guide(ComboBox1.SelectedIndex))
 
 
        'formato
        Dim format As WaveFormat
        format.BitsPerSample = bitS
        format.Channels = canali
        format.SamplesPerSecond = freq
        format.BlockAlign = CShort(format.Channels * (format.BitsPerSample / 8))
        format.AverageBytesPerSecond = format.BlockAlign * format.SamplesPerSecond
        format.FormatTag = WaveFormatTag.Pcm
        capD.Format = format
 
 
        Select Case SaveD.ShowDialog
            Case Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK, Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Yes
                'crea il file
                CreateRIFF(SaveD.FileName, format)
            Case Else
                Exit Sub
        End Select
       
 
 
 
        notifySize = IIf(1024 > format.AverageBytesPerSecond / 8, 1024, format.AverageBytesPerSecond / 8)
        notifySize -= notifySize Mod format.BlockAlign
 
        ' imposta la dimensione del buffer
        captureBufferSize = notifySize * nNotification
 
        ' Crea il capture buffer
        capD.BufferBytes = captureBufferSize
        cBuff = New CaptureBuffer(capD, captureF)
 
 
 
        NotificationEvent = New AutoResetEvent(False)
        'creazione notifica
        Dim i As Integer
        For i = 0 To nNotification - 1
            PositionNotify(i).Offset = notifySize * i + notifySize - 1
            PositionNotify(i).EventNotifyHandle = NotificationEvent.Handle
        Next
 
 
 
        appNotify = New Notify(cBuff)
 
       
        'imposta il notificatore affinchè generi l'evento nel thread
        appNotify.SetNotificationPositions(PositionNotify, nNotification)
 
        isRecording = True
        cBuff.Start(True)
        th.Start() 'inizia il thread
 
 
    End Sub

Well what is ambiguous? Just means that you are using a name for a variable that also appears in one of your referenced assemblies, for whatever name you are getting the error on. You can just change the name in the code to something else (or enclose the ambiguous names in brackets, I believe)

but i've tried that it still doesn't work for instance I have this:

VB Code:

Dim cBuff As CaptureBuffer

then the error is then I get the error (CaptureBuffer is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound') and it's a class in Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound. I even tried it this way:

VB Code:

Dim cBuff As Microsoft.DirectX.DirectSound.CaptureBuffer

but when I do it that way capturebuffer isn't even in the list of classes and I know it's suppose to be because I even checked the msdn site

Not sure what to tell you, as those two lines both work for me when just copying and pasting in, with the DirecSound dll referenced... Maybe its just something that went wrong in the conversion. Why not try starting a new project and just copying and pasting the code over?
