I want to detect is any audio playing from any application using Windows API functions like waveout... or mixer functions. I am going to use it in the program I am writing for Windows CE 6 using C#. Note that I am programming Windows CE so there are some limits, and I don't want to use DirectX.

  • @DrewJordan I want to know how to do this. – Vahid Jan 06 '16 at 20:07
  • can you try a google search what have you actually done on your own besides stating what you want..? – MethodMan Jan 06 '16 at 20:12
  • @MethodMan I searched a lot. – Vahid Jan 06 '16 at 20:15
  • then you should have found some examples on DirectX then .. – MethodMan Jan 06 '16 at 20:16
  • I can't use DirectX. As I mentions in question I want to use windows API. – Vahid Jan 06 '16 at 20:20

Given that you are using C#, and do not want to use DirectX, you will most likely need to write similar code that call the Windows API's directly using PInoke and import the COM libraries. – Clay Ver Valen Jan 06 '16 at 20:49

Need more specification on the device that will be used. It's not wise to use other things - DirectX is well prepared for common problems, that you will have.

Also please look at Platform Builder - maybe this is more complex but you will know what kind of IN/OUT's you will be using.
