NAudio - Play mp3 from internet without FileOpenDialog?

I noticed in the NAudio Demo from the latest version of NAudio that if Filename is empty, then it opens a fileopendialog. So if I paste a http link in that window and click OK, I've noticed that the FileName string looks something like this:

"C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\2FO1NTK2\20s[1].mp3"

How does this exactly happen? I don't want an OpenFileDialog because the path I want to play is already stated elsewhere. And in my case, I use a string which looks something like this "http://domainname.com/file.mp3"

This creates an error stating that URL is not supported. So I guess there's something I'm missing here?

Edit: Inserting the PlayMp3FromUrl gives me this error in WaveOut:

'NAudio.Wave.WaveOut' does not contain a constructor that takes '3' arguments' This is at line "using (WaveOut waveOut = new WaveOut(0, 500, null))" I tried to just remove all of the arguments, leaving it ()), and that compiles. But the sound playback seems to start for a microsecond or something. And then everything freezes. I've tried with various arguments and none seem to work. I guess it's got something to do with the arguments?

have you done a get latest of all the code? There should be no calls to the old WaveOut constructor still in there. – Mark Heath
@Mark: the call to the old WaveOut constructor is in the PlayMp3FromUrl method I've linked to in my answer. – dtb

"http:\www.domainname.com/file.mp3"

Does it work with // ?

Using PlayMp3FromUrl from this SO question:

PlayMp3FromUrl("http://www.domainname.com/file.mp3");
