Need help on some things
Hi!
I'm still very noobie in C++, i did cover most of basic trough books ( arrays,variables, outputs/inputs and etc.).
Coud someone explain me what shoud i know, and what shoud i learn in order to make program that will give me full black screen and that will load up mp3 file and play it (and loop it ).
Thanks! :)

Well, you want to look up audio APIs such as Direct Sound, FMOD and such.
-
API's work like liberies or? Shoud i #include them or?
Direct sound, fmod... it's really strange to me, shoudnt "Load mp3 and run it" be 2-3 lines of code??
-
No. It's not as simple as that. C++ has no built-in functions for reading / playing MP3 files. Google FMOD and read on the website.
-
Well, what if i do get my goal and make such program, does every computer must have installed the FMOD API in order to get my program working?

You must distribute the file fmod.dll that comes with the library. It will enable users to run your application.
