How to play a wav file to LINE_OUT with javax.sound.sampled

Hello all,
I need to play a wav file to LINE_OUT port, but not to the SPEAKER. I am trying to do this under window NT. For some reason I get false for isLineSupported(Port.Info.LINE_OUT). I am new to javax.sound so I might be doing something wrong. Here is the code that I am using to iterate through all availible mixers and check if LINE_OUT is supported by any of them:
Mixer.Info[] mixers = AudioSystem.getMixerInfo();
for(int i = 0; i < mixers.length; i++){
Mixer mixer = AudioSystem.getMixer(mixers);
if (mixer.isLineSupported(Port.Info.LINE_OUT)) {
System.out.println("the port is supported");
try {
Port line = (Port) AudioSystem.getLine(
Port.Info.LINE_OUT);
catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
else{
System.out.println("the port is not supported");
Please help

The new bugID of the request to implement Ports is: 4558938.

How to play a wave file through the DAQ board?

Hi there,
we want to play a wave file that is saved on the harddrive via the DAQ board. Means we want to connect a amp to the analog output of the DAQ to amplify the sound and play it through a speaker.
We couldn't find any VI that does that. Can anybody tell us how to play a wave file, or perhaps even send us a VI that can do that?
Thanks a lot for your help

Hi Martin,
The only example that I could find on how to do this was using our
older Traditional DAQ drivers version 6.9.3. If you're using Traditional
DAQ drivers, the vi can be found here.
The example reads a 8-bit mono .wav file (an example .wav file is included in the .zip file) and writes it to the analog out of your DAQ card. I've updated the
example to work with our newer DAQmx drivers and attached it here.
I hope this helps,
Paul C.

Why, when I bounce to iTunes, do my wave files show up with no sound?

When I bounce wave files to iTunes the file has a time and the title shows up, but no sound when you double click on it. The time bar moves like its playing but no sound!!

If you bounce as AAC or MP3, you will lose some quality. Better to bounce in AIF or WAV if you intend to burn to CD. Now, why you can't play it in iTunes or from finder, that is weird. Like someone suggested, try AIF format. That is all I use and I can play anywhere. When you go to "Get Info" in iTunes (for the song), does it have a time? You can also try opening the file (from your Bounced folder) into Audacity? It's a free app and very nice. You will be able to see the sound wave. This will verify that you actually have sound in the file.
Let us know what you find.

How do you open/play a .wav file (music file) without play sound file .vi

I am having big problems to create a music background for my project. I am newbie using labview and maybe my questions is not so dificult to solve (I hope so)
I was using play sound file vi but the problem is that I dont want the music file start automatically. I wanna control the start time using a button. I tried include a sound output stop but when the app start and I add more wav files in my vi, the sound file start, then stop abruptally because the stop vi and the everything is normal. I would like to eliminate that error.
Someone have any idea, maybe using open file or another way.
Thanks in advance
I add a screenshot of my vi and also the vi in this post

How do I play the .wav file google mail sends me on my Iphone 5?

I have cable phone service that sends out a .wav file of any voicemails I recieve to my e-mail account. I use google mail on my Iphone, and cannot play the .wav file that is attached to that e-mail. When I click on the "audio message box", it brings up a circle containing a south-west facing arrow which has a slash through it.

I have the latest software (6.1.4) and I can play the attachment if I go through "Mail" instead of "GMail". I am still not certain why I have a widget called "Mail".
Inside the "Mail" app, there are it's own Inbox, VIP, Flagged, etc which are all in color. Further down the list is my GMail boxes and sub-boxes. They are all grayed out, but still funtional.
Do I have something set up wrong causing me to be unable to play the .wav files that come to me through gmail?

How to play an audio file through a button?

I have a form in which I have a button (Command object). When the user clicks on this command button it is supposed to play a wav file. The wav is residing in my hard disk at "C:\tada.wav"
I have tried to include the following code in the commandAction() method, which technically is the right way of performing this operation:
But I get a warning when I compile saying that this operation should be performed in a seperate thread as opposed to commandAction().
if(c == cmdPlay)
try
String wav = "file:///c:/tada.wav";
Player p = Manager.createPlayer(wav);
p.start();
catch (IOException x)
x.printStackTrace();
} catch (MediaException x) {
x.printStackTrace();
Can anyone please tell me how to implement this solution properly or just suggest a new way of creating a "play" button in my form? Urgent HELP NEEDED PLEASE!
THANKS.

Hi Ibrahim,
Rob has pointed you to the Lingo for playing a sound. There is a behavior in the Library Palette that makes this very easy without needing to write a script yourself. In the Media > Sound category, there is a 'Play Sound' behavior. You can click and drag this behavior onto a sprite and then in the Parameters dialog, you can choose the sound to play, the channel in which it should play, the event to activate the sound, and if you want the sound to loop.

Subsequent play of WAV files from HTTP

Hi,
I have to subsequently play many WAV files from HTTP in a nokia series 60 emulator.
Everything is ok for the first two files, but at the third I catch an exception:
"java.io.IOException: exceeded the configured maximum number of connections"
I tried two ways to load the files from HTTP:
Manager.CreatePlayer(InputStream...)
Manager.CreatePlayer("http:\\...")
Below there is the code of the two methods I use. Please note that I try in every way to close the connection before open a new one!!!
public void Method_1(String src, String type){
int iLen=0;
is = null;
httpCon = null;
byte[] bBuf;
try {
if (p != null) {
if (p.getState() == Player.STARTED) {
p.stop();
p.removePlayerListener(this);
p.deallocate();
p.close();
p=null;
if (is!=null){
is.close();
is=null;
if (httpCon!=null){
httpCon.close();
httpCon=null;
httpCon = (HttpConnection) Connector.open(src);
if (httpCon.getResponseCode() != HttpConnection.HTTP_OK) {
System.out.println("Bad response code");
return;
System.out.println("Connection OK! (audio)");
iLen = (int) httpCon.getLength();
System.out.println("audio file length : " + iLen);
is = httpCon.openInputStream();
p = Manager.createPlayer(is, type);
p.addPlayerListener(this);
p.setLoopCount(1);
p.prefetch();
p.start();
vc = (VolumeControl)p.getControl("VolumeControl");
catch (MediaException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
public void Method_2(String src){
try {
if (p!=null){
if (p.getState() == Player.STARTED)
p.stop();
p.deallocate();
p.close();
p=null;
p = Manager.createPlayer(src);
p.addPlayerListener(this);
p.setLoopCount(1);
p.start();
vc = (VolumeControl)p.getControl("VolumeControl");
catch (java.io.IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
catch (MediaException e) {
e.printStackTrace();

My question is:
how can I load (from a HTTP server) and play more than two WAV files without crashing?
Do I have to close the connection in a better way in order to re-open it without problems (and more than two times)?
It is simply an emulator bug?
Thanks.

Play a wav file once

how do I play a wav file just once using the play sound
file.vi. i keep getting it to repeat over and over
thanks

First may I recommend some reading here. This is not meant to be cocky just to help you.
Getting Started with NI LabVIEW Student Training
LabVIEW101
Second I have included sort of template. Notice the wire that ends in the while loop. This will ensure that the wav is played before the loop starts.
Good luck with your Labview labwork
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
(Sorry no Labview "brag list" so far)

Playing a wav file (byte array) using JMF

Hi,
I want to play a wav file in form of a byte array using JMF. I have 2 classes, MyDataSource and MyPullBufferStream. MyDataSource class is inherited from PullStreamDataSource, and MyPullBufferStream is derived from PullBufferStream. When I run the following piece of code, I got an error saying "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x7c9108b2, pid=3800, tid=1111". Any idea what might be the problem? Thanks.
