Hi, i found(

that there was a way to play mp3 with a TMediaPlayer... it works... but the quality of the sound seems to be lower than normal... some *chik* and *tik* can be hear when a song is playing... this is normal? however in the two case i would like to know 'why?'

Hello

TMediaPlayer uses the Windows Media Player, so do expect to high a standard - because MS want you to use thier proprietary formats. There are Open Source Libraries around which should perform a lot better.
