Recording with a Waveform-Audio Device
The following example opens a waveform-audio device with a new file, records
for the specified time, plays the recording, and prompts the user to save the
recording if desired.
// Uses the MCI_OPEN, MCI_RECORD, and MCI_SAVE commands to record and
// save a waveform-audio file. Returns 0L if successful; otherwise,
// it returns an MCI error code.
DWORD recordWAVEFile(DWORD dwMilliSeconds)
{
UINT wDeviceID;
DWORD dwReturn;
MCI_OPEN_PARMS mciOpenParms;
MCI_RECORD_PARMS mciRecordParms;
MCI_SAVE_PARMS mciSaveParms;
MCI_PLAY_PARMS mciPlayParms;
// Open a waveform-audio device with a new file for recording.
mciOpenParms.lpstrDeviceType = "waveaudio";
mciOpenParms.lpstrElementName = "";
if (dwReturn = mciSendCommand(0, MCI_OPEN,
MCI_OPEN_ELEMENT | MCI_OPEN_TYPE,
(DWORD)(LPVOID) &mciOpenParms))
{
// Failed to open device; don't close it, just return error.
return (dwReturn);
}
// The device opened successfully; get the device ID.
wDeviceID = mciOpenParms.wDeviceID;
// Begin recording and record for the specified number of
// milliseconds. Wait for recording to complete before continuing.
// Assume the default time format for the waveform-audio device
// (milliseconds).
mciRecordParms.dwTo = dwMilliSeconds;
if (dwReturn = mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_RECORD,
MCI_TO | MCI_WAIT, (DWORD)(LPVOID) &mciRecordParms))
{
mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_CLOSE, 0, NULL);
return (dwReturn);
}
// Play the recording and query user to save the file.
mciPlayParms.dwFrom = 0L;
if (dwReturn = mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_PLAY,
MCI_FROM | MCI_WAIT, (DWORD)(LPVOID) &mciPlayParms))
{
mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_CLOSE, 0, NULL);
return (dwReturn);
}
if (MessageBox(hMainWnd, "Do you want to save this recording?",
"", MB_YESNO) == IDNO)
{
mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_CLOSE, 0, NULL);
return (0L);
}
// Save the recording to a file named TEMPFILE.WAV. Wait for
// the operation to complete before continuing.
mciSaveParms.lpfilename = "tempfile.wav";
if (dwReturn = mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_SAVE,
MCI_SAVE_FILE | MCI_WAIT, (DWORD)(LPVOID) &mciSaveParms))
{
mciSendCommand(wDeviceID, MCI_CLOSE, 0, NULL);
return (dwReturn);
}
return (0L);

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
