Is there a way to load a CD music file off the CD. I think it is a .cda file but BlitzMax only plays .wav and .ogg. Doesn't it? Hint I am trying to write a relatively simple program to play sounds for a play performance. |

.cda is not a music file. It's just a header file which gives information about the track. CD's are recorded in Wav format ( more or less ) but you can't just open a wav, you need to play audio cd's differently. I'm sure most audio libraries ( openAL, Audiere, Bass, FMod, etc ) have the ability to play a music cd, and you can probably tap into WMP's interface and play them that way. |

Can someone explain to me what FMod is? I have seen a lot about it. |

Doubt many people can explain it much better than your friend |

I think I get FMod. How would you "tap into WMP's interface"? |
| ||
I'm assuming with this : http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/platform/sdk.aspx But I have no first hand experience of this. |

Try Audiere for Win32/Linux platform... |
