You can try MMTools, they have a component to encode and decode MP3. If you're reffering that DirectSound directly supports or offers a kind of player for MP3 files, I don't know. But IIRC, Microsoft deploys with their OS (at least Windows XP and up, maybe Windows 2000) a codec for MP3, that I assume you should be able to use inside DirectSound. This has the BIG advantage that Microsoft already paid for the royalities of using this codec, as long as the OS has it by default. Otherwise (doing yourself your codec, or using for example the MMTools one) you will have to pay big bucks for use it in your apps. That's why I always recomend OggVorbis :-) (www.vorbis.com) -- Rodrigo G�mez "Ron Sawyer" <rsawyer8128@aol.com> escribi� en el mensaje news:3FCFB9A0.F2709BA@aol.com... > Does anyone know of an MP3 Player VCL? Does Direct Sound play MP3?
