C# Playing a sound in the background

    private System.Media.SoundPlayer sp;
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        sp = new System.Media.SoundPlayer(Properties.Resources.main);
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        sp.Play();
    }

main is a MP3 from resources...I get the following errors: *The best overloaded method match for System.Media.SoundPlayer.SoundPlayer(System.IO.Stream)' has some invalid arguments

and

*cannot convert from 'byte[]' to 'System.IO.Stream'

If you want to play some SOUNDS in your Dot Net(C#,Vb.net) Form. Then write this code in your project and it will play a SOUND during execution. Remember you should have a ".wave" file for this purposes.

  using System.Media;  // write this at the top of the Form

   SoundPlayer my_sound = new SoundPlayer("F:/aeroplantakeover.wave"); //put your own .wave file path
   my_sound.Play();

Try this for wav.

        System.Media.SoundPlayer player = new System.Media.SoundPlayer();
    player.Stream = Properties.Resources.main;
    player.Play();

Or this for MP3:

WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer wplayer = new WMPLib.WindowsMediaPlayer();
wplayer.URL = "main.mp3";
 wplayer.Controls.Play();
