How to play MP3 music in vb.net 2010

[petrelutza]

Hello, I'm working at a project and I want to add a MP3 song an play it when the program that i made will be started... any ideas?

Hi,

Try this (in your form or a Module):

Private PlaySound As New System.Media.SoundPlayer

Public Sub PlaySoundFile(ByVal SoundPath As String)
        PlaySound .SoundLocation = SoundPath
        PlaySound .Load()
        PlaySound .Play()
End Sub

Then call it from the Form Load event (or wherever you like):

PlaySoundFile(<path to mp3 here>)

I know this works for wav files so it should be good for mp3s too.

HTH,

Chris.
