        Hi, 
 
i tried to use the MultiMedia Class. 
I Compiled the TestApp. 
 
But if i try to play an MP3 oder Wave file i always get the Message:  
"An error occured: Unknown Problem while loading devicedriver" 
 
I also tried the WaveFile class. With the WaveFile it was possible to Play a wave File. But i need to play mp3 files. 
 
Can anyone help? 
 
Thanks a lot. 
 
Best Regards  |

        I found that the Multimedia class fails in the GetShortPath if there is a SPACE in the  file path.  I am unsure how to fix this error.  |

        My previous post seems to be in error.  The buffer is allocated with file.Length + 1, but for some reason the path that I was using was longer after ShortPath so it didn't fit in the buffer?  I changed the buffer to file.Length * 2 and now it works just fine.  Can anyone explain this problem?  |
