I am looking to develop an audio player in C#, but was wondering what libraries are available for playback. I am looking for a free library that allows for an extensive list of audio formats to be played (for example mp3, wma, wav, ogg, etc.) Thats pretty much the basic functionality I would need. But if I could get picky, a library that can convert audio files between the formats would be handy. Doing a google search I came across the alvas.audio library, but it wasn’t free. The VLC library would be nice too, but I couldn’t get it to work, and I’d prefer to just package my application with a dll instead of having my users have the VLC software installed on their machine as well.
Thanks for any tips or advice on this.
Bass Audio Library is one option.
