Question

This the code which I’m having problems:

MediaElement media = new MediaElement();
media.Source = new Uri("/ding.wav", UriKind.Relative);
media.Play();

The folder where contains that code is the same for the sound. I mean, they are in the same folder. And the build action from the file is RESOURCE.

It doesn’t play any sound. What’s happening?

Answer 1

Try

MediaElement media = new MediaElement();
media.LoadedBehavior = MediaState.Manual;
media.UnloadedBehavior = MediaState.Manual;
media.Source = new Uri("ding.wav", UriKind.Relative);
media.Play();

Note: When I tried, I had Build Action set to Content and Copy to Output Directory to "Copy Always" for ding.wav.
