My application has two timers. The TMediaPlayer is turned off ontimer event. Here is the snipet of source code
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender : TObject); begin ...; ...; Form1.GetItemData(itemnumber); end; procedure TForm1.GetItemData(itemnumber : string); begin ...; ...; if mediaplayer_ON then begin Form1.MediaPlayer1.Stop; Form1.MediaPlayer1.Close; mediaplayer_ON := false; end; mediaplayer_ON := true; Form1.PlayMP3Music; end; procedure TForm1.Timer2Timer(Sender : TObject); begin ...; ...; ...; if mediaplayer_ON then begin Form1.MediaPlayer1.Stop; Form1.MediaPlayer1.Close; mediaplayer_ON := false; end; end; The PlayMP3Music is not within a thread object. Initially i didnt think it necessary to have it threaded. But now I wonder if that might fix it. I may try that in a few days time. Hope that helps explain the case.
