Ok, i'd like to have an .mp3 start playing in the beginning form, and play throughout the entire program. However, due to my horrible lack of knowledge in VB, I don't know how. I tried downloading "Directshow," but it doesn't seem to work in my project. Any help would be appreciated, and sorry for the stupid question.
If you want something to play on any form no matter which one is open, you might need a "hidden" form with the audio controls on it. And I believe it's "directsound" you need not directshow :-)
I love helping noobs with their VB problems (probably because, as an amateur programmer, I am only slightly better at VB than them :-)) but if you SERIOUSLY want to get help for free from a community such as VBForums, you have to first have a grounding (basic knowledge) in VB6, otherwise you're way too much work to help...You've got to give a little if you want to get help from us, in other words!
And we DON'T do your homework. If your tutor doesn't teach you enough to help you make the project without his or her help, FIND A BETTER TUTOR or try reading books on programming! We are happy to help with minor things regarding the project, but you have to understand the rest of it if you want our help to be useful.
Argh, how this stuff could get any more complicated, I don't know. I've gone through countless other topics about playing music, but it leaves out so much basic stuff it's not funny. Listen, all I want to know is what I have to download, and what code I have to put in to play a .wav file. Nothing more, nothing less.
