Remarks

The SoundPlayer class provides a simple interface for loading and playing a .wav file. The SoundPlayer class supports loading a .wav file from a file path, a URL, a Stream that contains a .wav file, or an embedded resource that contains a .wav file.

To play a sound using the SoundPlayer class, configure a SoundPlayer with a path to the .wav file and call one of the play methods. You can identify the .wav file to play by using one of the constructors or by setting either the SoundLocation or Stream property. The file can be loaded prior to playing by using one of the load methods, or loading can be deferred until one of the play methods is called. A SoundPlayer configured to load a .wav file from a Stream or URL must load the .wav file into memory before playback begins.

You can load or play a .wav file synchronously or asynchronously. If you call a synchronous load or play method, the calling thread will wait until the method returns, which may cause painting and other events to be interrupted. Calling an asynchronous load or play method will allow the calling thread to continue without interruption. For more information on asynchronous method calls, see How to: Run an Operation in the Background.

When a SoundPlayer has finished loading a .wav file, it raises the LoadCompleted event. You can examine the AsyncCompletedEventArgs in your event handler to determine if the load succeeded or failed. The SoundLocationChanged event is raised when the audio source is set to a new file path or URL. The StreamChanged event is raised when the audio source is set to a new Stream. For more information about how to handle events, see Handling and Raising Events.

For more information about SoundPlayer, see SoundPlayer Class Overview.

Note

The SoundPlayer class cannot play other file types, such as .wma or .mp3. If you want to play other file types, you can use the Windows Media Player control. For more information, see Using the Windows Media Player Control in a .NET Framework Solution and Windows Media Player Object Model Reference for Visual Basic .NET and C# in the Windows Media Player SDK.

Methods

CreateObjRef(Type)

Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
Dispose()

Releases all resources used by the Component.

(Inherited from Component)
Dispose(Boolean)

Releases the unmanaged resources used by the Component and optionally releases the managed resources.

(Inherited from Component)
Equals(Object)

Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()

Serves as the default hash function.

(Inherited from Object)
GetLifetimeService()
Obsolete.

Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
GetService(Type)

Returns an object that represents a service provided by the Component or by its Container.

(Inherited from Component)
GetType()

Gets the Type of the current instance.

(Inherited from Object)
InitializeLifetimeService()
Obsolete.

(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject)
OnLoadCompleted(AsyncCompletedEventArgs)

Raises the LoadCompleted event.

OnSoundLocationChanged(EventArgs)

Raises the SoundLocationChanged event.

OnStreamChanged(EventArgs)

Raises the StreamChanged event.

Play()

Plays the .wav file using a new thread, and loads the .wav file first if it has not been loaded.

PlayLooping()

Plays and loops the .wav file using a new thread, and loads the .wav file first if it has not been loaded.

PlaySync()

Plays the .wav file and loads the .wav file first if it has not been loaded.

Stop()

Stops playback of the sound if playback is occurring.

ToString()

Returns a String containing the name of the Component, if any. This method should not be overridden.

(Inherited from Component)

Events

Disposed

Occurs when the component is disposed by a call to the Dispose() method.

(Inherited from Component)
LoadCompleted

Occurs when a .wav file has been successfully or unsuccessfully loaded.

SoundLocationChanged

Occurs when a new audio source path for this SoundPlayer has been set.

StreamChanged

Occurs when a new Stream audio source for this SoundPlayer has been set.
