Play MP3 file using VLC or Itunes

Getting Started
1

I have an array of MP3 files which are displayed in a ListBox. I want the user to be able to select a file from the list, and have it play using an external player such as VLC or Itunes. I need to do this as Sound.Open(soundFile) plays the file but has no controls e.g play, stop, pause.

I know how to select the file and play the MP3 using Sound but I need to do more than that.

I have used Launch to open VLC, but I don’t know how to get it to play the selected file

Thanks in advance

Would the MoviePlayer class do what you want?
(don’t stop at the “Movie” term; it can actually handle audio only)
