Hi All
Here is a bit of code you can use with your MediaPlayers, and by adding a Horizontal ScrollBar Component you will be able to Drag the Slider to any position within the Track you are playing cooll;

The best way i found using this was to Change my FORM1 name to Player.vb

I am using a Horizontal Scrollbar ( Renamed to ScrollBar in the Properties )

Set the Maximum value to 100

And my MediaPlayer Component has been ( Renamed to PlayerControl in the Properties )

Player Load Code (Which was Form1 Load before i renamed it )

Code: Select all

PlayerControl.settings.autoStart = True
        PlayerControl.settings.volume = VolumeBar.Value

PlayBar Scroll Code ( Horizontal Scrollbar after being Renamed )

Code: Select all

 Try
            If (PlayerControl.currentMedia.duration <> 0) Then
                Dim NewPerc As Double = Convert.ToDouble(PlayBar.Value) / 100
                Dim DurationVar As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(PlayerControl.currentMedia.duration * 1000) ' milliseconds
                Dim NewPos As Integer = (DurationVar * NewPerc) / 1000


                PlayerControl.Ctlcontrols.currentPosition = NewPos
            Else
                PlayBar.Value = 0
            End If
        Catch ex As Exception
        End Try

And thats it

Easy Huh

Hello hungryhounduk,

LOL you must have read my mind, I was just about to hunt through my code to find this because I needed it to test something out.

Good work Derren Brown ;) cooll;

Derren Brown, great name indeed ;P
I like most of the English names, they sound so cool!

Anyway, Interesting to know that you like mountain biking, because I make mountain biking too, it's so exciting!

Now talking about your snippeT:

Hmm I was wondering how you made that bar in your MP3 Player before I saw this, It also helped me understanding how to add scrollbars, not just in MP3 Players but also in other applications

Greets,
Nery

Hi Codenstuff, Nery, Robby1998
Glad you can make use of it cooll;
It certainly does give a Mp3 Player or Media Application a bit more functionality

Respect
