Play WAV Resource

[LarryDalooza]

Download Scite install. Add ResHacker.exe to the Scite\AutoIt3Wrapper folder. Use Scite's "Tool" menu to compile this...

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_File_Add=C:\WINDOWS\Media\tada.wav,SOUND,MYWAVE

Global Const $SND_RESOURCE = 0x00040004
Global Const $SND_ASYNC = 1

DllCall("winmm.dll","int","PlaySound","str","MYWAVE","hwnd",0,"int",$SND_RESOURCE)

DllCall("winmm.dll","int","PlaySound","str","MYWAVE","hwnd",0,"int",BitOr($SND_RESOURCE,$SND_ASYNC))
For $n = 1 to 100
    Sleep(15)
    ToolTip("Asynch! " & $n)
Next

Off the top of my head. No sound card in my dev pc at work.

Hope it works...

Thanks for sharing Larry.

I will add this into my resource UDF examples

Note: for MP3 it don't work - PlaySound API supports only WAV

For mp3 you may be able to use the resource with MCISendString() in winmm.dll

any volunteers to do this?
