Solution 1

This code doesn't do anything other than tell Media Player which file to play. Your code can't do anything to clean up the sound. If you open the file directly in Media Player yourself (not through your code) it'll do the exact same thing. The problem seems to be with the file you're playing or with the codec you have installed for the .MP3 format.

its taking mp3 file,than what can i do now??because my all mp3 file and player does not play properly now...

I already told you what the problem is. You've got a screwed up codec and you'll have to replace it with something. Google for "Media Player MP3 codec" and you'll find something.

Solution 2

standard audio files do play, but a certain MP3, AVI or WMV file does not produce audio, the first thing to try is to install missing codecs as Dave said.

You can try and find out which codec is required and then find and install that code and try it.

Hope this will help you.

As far as I know, there are many codec packs on the net. I use K-lite which seems reasonable. You can check it out.

Come on. You can't change the file format in your code. Forget your code for now. If you can't play an MP3 in the normal Media Player, you're code can't do anything about it. Just try playing an MP3 normally in Media Player. Why is this so hard to figure out??
