GetWaveFormatEx Method

The GetWaveFormatEx method gets the audio format as an SpWaveFormatEx object.

Non-standard formats using wav files should use GetWaveFormatEx to retrieve formats.

SpAudioFormat.GetWaveFormatEx() As SpWaveFormatEx

Parameters

None.

Return Value

The GetWaveFormatEx method returns an SpWaveFormatEx variable.

Example

The following Visual Basic form code demonstrates the use of the GetWaveFormatEx and SetWaveFormatEx properties. To run this code, create a form with the following controls:

Paste this code into the Declarations section of the form.

The Command1 procedure creates an SpAudioFormat object and sets it to the audio format SAFT22kHz16BitStereo. It then gets the format object's SpWaveFormatEx object and displays the properties. The code then changes the format of the SpAudioFormat object to SAFT11kHz16BitMono, gets a new SpWaveFormatEx object and displays its properties again. Note that the SpWaveFormatEx properties have changed to reflect the new audio format.

The Command2 procedure creates an SpAudioFormat object and sets it to the audio format SAFT22kHz16BitStereo. It then gets the format object's SpWaveFormatEx object and displays the properties. The code then changes the properties of the SpWaveFormatEx object to match the SAFT11kHz16BitMono format and sets the format of the SpAudioFormat object with the SetWaveFormatEx method. Note that the SpAudioFormat object's Type property has changed to SAFT11kHz16BitMono to reflect the new SpWaveFormatEx properties.
