The solution is copying the Gambas archive file to a temporary real file, and use it as URL. sTemp = File.SetExt(Temp$(),"mp3") Copy "internal.mp3" to sTemp $hPlayer.URL = Media.URL(sTemp) ... Kill sTemp ' If your file is very big, this could be useful I eventually can implement that transparently inside gb.media in the future. Regards, -- Benoît Minisini Thanks, this solved my problem, and may I say, Temp$() is a really nice concept! :) However, I noticed that it takes about 0.15 seconds (for GStreamer?) to calculate the length of my mp3 file, but I was able to manage that. /Patrik ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Time is money.
