   i am having the same situation but i got one step further because i can accurateley adjust the scroll to my track, you can do this by setting the tract time format to ms(milliseconds) then get the length of the track, then convert the length of the track to an integer, then set that as the spin max range, then get the scroll pos and format it into a String,  then get the sliders position and seek that.
   

   
   however the downfull of this is that you can only do this for one track, if find out how to do it to all the tracks please reply back

   Is there an animation control for vb.net? or an equivelant component? I have almost given up on how to view the filecopy.avi in vb.net!
   Help? Thanks

   Does VB6 handle Animated Gifs ? I am writing a program that requires certain buttons to change colour or flash
   when certain events occur.I am using a timer now , it does do the job but sinice i am using realtime event changes, the timer does not pick up some changes quick enough and the buttons end up changing or flashing at the wrong times.I have added checks and flags to the timer to try and handle this but cannot get 100%. Is there any other way?

   ...has all the information you may need to add a slider to the MediaPlayer.  I cannot garentee that it will work like you want it to on all of it but if you have visual studio you may use the "Advanced API Text Viewer" under the "VisualStudio Tools" directory of the start menu.  Any questions please just feel free to reply and I will get back to you as soon as I can!

   I'm currently writing a program to play .WAV files as I've just started learning VB. The MCI Control is powerful but what if I wanted to add a Slider Bar to control the positioning of the Audio File (Like MediaPlayer does)?
