Hi all,  

Hi all
I Need Someone To Look At These two code's acepro1.zip and acepro2.zip at files

and help by adding bit's to it, making it better and better.

I understand a bit of VB6, but not much in some area's

(I'm hoping with everyones input it can grow into something Power full)

Open Source Project Ace-Promo MP3 Radio Station

I am using a program made in vb to play MP3 audio it controls a outside program called WinAmp.


I would like the program to have some more features:

1. Play mp3's from raw vb code instead of outside call to WinAmp
( Smooth GUI tie in)

2. Play 2 mp3's at once (for mixing the music before one end's in the play list.)

3. Play all audio at the same Sound level and Tone. Like a DSP pluggin control.

4. My Hardware transmitting part radio of my station uses Control tone sounds to change
frequencies and turn the RF transmitter on and off (I would like to have pre-set buttons and timed trigers to play the Control Sounds)

5. A nicer looking GUI
Good error taping for sound drop out(It's for playing Sound 24 Hours a day)

7. Input Control from the Com Port (Simple Button Pad)

8. On air UV meter showing Sound out put

any info needed just ask 24/7

3. Play all audio at the same Sound level and Tone.

answer: don't all mp3's normally play at a level fo volume your pc is set at?


5. A nicer looking GUI

answer: like winamp? we can do that later on.

Been busy trying to take a second degree <--it's not working out...

wow that was a fast reply

I going to look at your link now.

some mp3's sound levels drop out with highs and low's
most play have some kind of DSP pluggin to help fixup the sound (some mp3's are recorded at poor bit rate's


I

thanks

I think he ment how to normalize them. Try using DirectSound class (you need to make reference to DirectX library). Find more about DirectSoundBuffer methods SetFormat, SetFrequency, SetVolume and other. You can find more about them in the MSDN.

Good luck

I add new links to the project files in the main post

I love your feed back, so far

thank you

5(second line) and 8 -> It seems that you wish to use your PC as the broadcast source rather than as an audio source. The problem is that digital VU meters and other monitoring only covers the digital signal, not the analogue output of your sound card, in fact, the only information that VU meters on software media players actually show, is that there is data in the file being played!! (dB units marked on these meters are pure fiction)  I would recommend that you use an external signal processor, as it actually works on the analogue signal. A reasonable unit will have ALC, white and pink noise detectors and equalisation. As I work in commercial radio, I have seen Lots! of sound cards fail, most are only detected by external means.

Phew!

On the brighter side, I have written a player myself and have a few custom controls that you might like to try, ie a "Playlist control" (a modified listbox that gives "Current" and "Next" filename properties, Track Length, Playlist Duration ect) a "dualplayer" control that gives 2 MediaPlayer controls for crossfading.. ect.
Mail me for more info....

hey thanks nod,

I understand your point on DSP plug-ins



So far the help has need great.

Please look at the project files and give me your advice

I still need help to combine them into one good program.

help, help
