Play an mp3 ?

How would I go about playing a local mp3 file from within a .NET windows
application (rather than invoking another program to play it) ?

How would I further control the playing ? eg. stop, pause, restart, etc.

Hi JezB,
How are you doing?

Try using Windows Media Player COM Component in .net application. Using this
you can control almost the complete Media player in your applicaiton
including Play, Pause, Stop, Load, Extract Total Length of the songs, etc..

For Loading mp3 use the following code:

Me.AxMediaPlayer1.Open("filepath\filename.mp3")

For Playing:
Me.AxMediaPlayer1.Play()

for Pausing:
Me.AxMediaPlayer1.Pause()

For Stopping:
Me.AxMediaPlayer1.Stop()


HTH.

Thanks
