[Guest kuntal_m69]

Hello Team,

obj.url="c:/music/love.mp3

i have done this, but it is not taking from that particular location

Please help me.

well i do not think there is an API or something where you can tell WMP10 in the background to play the file given.

For the PC this is easily done as .NET 2.0 has a new class called media but you can also use the WMP 10 SDK and embed that object in your application and use it however this will NOT work for the mobile platform.

but the path would be:

"\folder\morefolders\themp3file.mp3"

there is a way to play sound through the system speaker however that requires you to go low level and use p/invoke and only allows you to play short wave files - it may be long wave files but takes along time for it to play.

What you can do is this, I just tried it and works perfect ;)

in your code, import the System.Diagnostics namespace)

then:

ProcessStartInfo playAudioProcess = new ProcessStartInfo(thePathToAudioFile, "");

Process.Start(playAudioProcess);

That is C# code

hope it helps
