I want my application to play a mp3 file when it loads. I already added the mp3 to the application.

then i tried:

Code:

My.computer.audio.play("song.mp3")

and

Code:

IDKyet.my.computer.audio.play("song.mp3")

but neither want to work. any suggestions?

My.computer.audio.play(LOCATION.NAME, background)

Try this, with the location of the sound. D:

i'm trying to avoid that? i dont want the music file separate from the application, which is why i included it?

Add music file to resources then add this code

Code:

My.Computer.Audio.Play(My.Resources.song, AudioPlayMode.Background)

Did you add the files as audio?

yes massa... message too short
the only "audio" file it will accept is .wav. is there some "import" or something i can use to make it accept .mp3s?

edit: Ahhh sound of success. seems like only .wav works. fine w/ me, i have a converter

Easiest way, get a mp3 to waw converter.. Google it.

That code doesn´t accept mp3......Idk why.

If you want it to play when it loads, then either put it in a timer that's enabled, or put under Form1_Load
I would test this but my internet is about to go off...
If that's not what your talking about, then here:
Try using .mp4 or .wav
If I remember, I will post a tutorial on making a video converter when I get my internet back.
