MFC中的MCI设备错误

Question

MCI Error

The specified file cannot be played on the specified MCI device. The file may be corrupt, not in the correct format, or no fil

I have used following code to create a device and play the file.

m_Path = _T("res\\phoneringing.mp3");
m_Video = MCIWndCreate(/*this->GetSafeHwnd()*/ m_hWnd,
AfxGetInstanceHandle(),WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|MCIWNDF_NOMENU|MCIWNDF_NOPLAYBAR,m_Path);

I have observed that when my application creates the device second time using MCIWndCreate it throws this error.

AFAIK those old 'multimedia' API's only work for AVIs for video and WAV for audio. You'll probably want to embed Media Player for what you want to do.
