How to play extracted wave file byte array in C#?
- by user261924
At the moment i have managed to separate the left and right channel of a WAVE file and have included the header in a byte[] array. My next step is to be about to play both channels. How can this be done? 
Here is a code snippet:
byte[] song_left = new byte[fa.Length];
                byte[] song_right = new byte[fa.Length];
            int p = 0;
            for (int c = 0; c < 43; c++)
            {
                song_left[p] = header[c];
                p++;
            }
            int q = 0;
            for (s = startByte; s < length; s = s + 3)
            {
                song_left[s] = sLeft[q];
                q++;
                s++;
                song_left[s] = sLeft[q];
                q++;
            }
           p = 0;
            for (int c = 0; c < 43; c++)
            {
                song_right[p] = header[c];
                p++;
            }
This part is reading the header and data from both the right and light channel and saving it to array sLeft[] and sRight[]. This part is working perfectly.
Once I obtained the byte arrays, I did the following:
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes("c:\\left.wav", song_left);
System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes("c:\\right.wav", song_right);
Added a button to play the saved wave file:
 private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            spWave = new SoundPlayer("c:\\left.wav");
            spWave.Play();          
        }
Once I hit the play button, this error appers:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException' occurred in System.dll
Additional information: The wave header is corrupt.
Any ideas?
