MediaPlayer continue playing only when specific activity starts - java

I have a Mediaplayer of background music for my activity. I want to pause it and reset it when new activity starts and stop it when the activity destroys.
I did it like that:
#Override
protected void onResume() {
if(!continiue){
continiue=true;
try{
if (m != null) {
m=new MediaPlayer();
m.reset();
m = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.menu);
m.start();
m.setLooping(true);
}
else{
m.start();
}
}
catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
super.onResume();
}
}
#Override
protected void onStop() {
try{
if(m!=null){
m.stop();
m.release();
}
}
catch(Exception e){
}
super.onStop();
}
#Override
protected void onPause() {
try{
if(m.isPlaying()){
m.pause();
}
}
catch(Exception e){
}
super.onPause();
}
This worked fine. Now I want to add another activity but I want the music to continue playing only when this specific activity opens. How can I do that?

Create a separate class only for music playing and rule it from Activities. Something like this:
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.util.Log;
public class BackgroundMusicPlayer {
private static MediaPlayer mp = null;
private static int playingResId;
public static boolean isSoundTurnedOff;
private static boolean isPaused;
/** Stop old sound and start new one */
public static void play(Context context, int resIdToPlay) {
if (isSoundTurnedOff || context==null)
return;
if (mp != null && playingResId==resIdToPlay) {
if (isPaused)
mp.start();
isPaused = false;
return;
}
stop();
Intent i = new Intent("com.android.music.musicservicecommand");
i.putExtra("command", "pause");
context.sendBroadcast(i);
playingResId = resIdToPlay;
mp = MediaPlayer.create(context, resIdToPlay);
if (mp != null) {
mp.setLooping(true);
mp.start();
} else
Log.e("BackgroundMusicPlayer","Cant create MediaPlayer. MediaPlayer.create(context: "+context+", resIdToPlay: "+resIdToPlay+") returns null");
}
/** Stop the music */
public static void stop() {
if (mp != null) {
isPaused = false;
playingResId = 0;
mp.stop();
mp.release();
mp = null;
}
}
public static void pause() {
if (mp != null){
mp.pause();
isPaused = true;
}
}
public static void resume() {
if (mp != null && isPaused){
mp.start();
isPaused = false;
}
}
}

MediaPlayer freezing application in loop

ISSUE:
I have problem with my code. I want to loop my MediaPlayer, but when I do it with while loop, MediaPlayer playing, but application is freezed. I know, mediaplayer have setLooping method, but I must do it with while loop because I need to change sound in code.
Do someone know what is solution for it? Thanks.
CODE:
public void play() {
while(true) {
if (player == null) {
player = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.zvuk);
player.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
stopPlayer();
}
});
}
player.start();
}
}
public void stopPlayer() {
if (player != null) {
player.release();
player = null;
}
}
}
you are using infinite loop, which will never end. Replace your code with this:
public void play() {
if (player == null) {
player = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.zvuk);
player.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
// play again or write your logic for repeat
play();
}
});
}
player.start();
}
public void stopPlayer() {
if (player != null) {
player.release();
player = null;
}
}

Handling volume buttons with screen locked

Currently, I'm working on my simple android studio script, and I must use volume down while the mobile screen is locked.
Please, take a look at my script:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
public MediaPlayer mediaPlayer;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
final BroadcastReceiver vReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
#Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
initAudio(getApplicationContext(), "https://www.w3schools.com/html/horse.mp3");
}
};
registerReceiver(vReceiver, new IntentFilter("android.media.VOLUME_CHANGED_ACTION"));
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if (keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_VOLUME_DOWN) {
event.startTracking();
initAudio(getApplicationContext(), "https://www.w3schools.com/html/horse.mp3");
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
public void initAudio(final Context context, String url) {
if (mediaPlayer == null) {
try {
mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer();
mediaPlayer.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(context, Uri.parse(url));
mediaPlayer.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
#Override
public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) {
killMediaPlayer();
}
});
mediaPlayer.start();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Toast.makeText(context, "Fail", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
killMediaPlayer();
}
}
}
public void pauseAudio() {
if (!(mediaPlayer == null)) {
mediaPlayer.pause();
}
}
public void startAudio() {
if (!(mediaPlayer == null)) {
mediaPlayer.start();
}
}
public void killMediaPlayer() {
if (mediaPlayer != null) {
try {
mediaPlayer.reset();
mediaPlayer.release();
mediaPlayer = null;
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
}
What should I do to fix this issue? There are no errors, the script only works when I'm with my screen unlocked.
Can you help me with this?
Thank you very much.

Accessing a view from a service

So basically, i got a list view that shows a list of bands.
When i press on one of the bands in the list, it creates a band profile page via an adapter.
In this layout, i got a play button, which starts a MediaPlayer service and play a song.
So far, so good.
The problem is, im trying to update the seekBar, located in the band profile page (created by the adapter mentioned above), from the MediaPlayer service Java file, but i'm unable to reach it.
i'm trying to use :
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_singleband, null, false);
seekBar = (SeekBar) layout.findViewById(R.id.seekBarBand);
but it seems that it uses another "instance" of the view, and not the one i'm currently viewing.
Here is the full MusicService Java file:
public class MusicService extends Service {
SeekBar seekBar;
Handler handler;
Runnable runnable;
NotificationManager nMN;
TextView BandName;
String songLink;
String songName;
String bandName;
String SongPlaying="";
String BandPlaying="";
public static MediaPlayer mp;
public static Boolean mpState = true;
public static Boolean mpPause = false;
public static Boolean isPlaying = false;
#Override
public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
}
// Play Cycle for seekBar
public void PlayCycle(){
seekBar.setProgress(mp.getCurrentPosition());
if (mp.isPlaying()){
runnable = new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
PlayCycle();
}
};
handler.postDelayed(runnable, 1000);
}
}
#Override
public int onStartCommand(Intent intent, int flags, int startId) {
songLink = intent.getStringExtra("SongLink");
songName = intent.getStringExtra("SongName");
bandName = intent.getStringExtra("BandName");
LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater)getSystemService(LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
View layout = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_singleband, null, false);
seekBar = (SeekBar) layout.findViewById(R.id.seekBarBand);
BandName = (TextView) layout.findViewById(R.id.singleBandNameView);
BandName.setText("Bla Bla");
System.out.print("Band Name : "+ BandName.getText() );
handler = new Handler();
seekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
#Override
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean input) {
if (input){
mp.seekTo(progress);
}
}
#Override
public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
}
#Override
public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
}
});
if (isPlaying && !songName.equals(SongPlaying) && !BandPlaying.equals(bandName)) {

Would love to have some suggestions.
Thanks in advance.
Okey Firstly I suggest you to read more about Android Service classes. Secondly Do NOT place you visual components like a SeekBar or TextView in the Service because it doesn't make any sense. Service is just a background task and do not know about the UI. Since it's executed in the background you don't even need AsyncTask inside this so thirdly remove ALL AsyncTasks in your service and run their task like they don't need to be executed in the background.
So all what you have to do is create a Fragment/Activity for the UI, then bind your Fragment/Acitivity with your Service to communicate and update UI components.
The easiest way is make the Service a Singleton like it's done here:
public class MusicService extends Service {
private static MusicService instance = null;
public static MusicService getInstance() {
return instance;
}
Handler handler;
Runnable runnable;
NotificationManager nMN;

progress bar for music player doesnt work and crashes

this is my code, i am almost certain the problem is with the while loop.
public void start(View view) {
int currentPosition = 0;
player = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.sound);
player.start();
int total = player.getDuration();
progressBar.setProgress(0);
progressBar.setMax(player.getDuration());
while (player != null && currentPosition < total) {
// try {
// Thread.sleep(500);
currentPosition = player.getCurrentPosition();
// } catch (InterruptedException e) {
// return;
// } catch (Exception e) {
// return;
// }
progressBar.setProgress(currentPosition);
}
}
public void stop(View view) {
player.stop();
}
whether or not i have the sleep intervals my result is the same; the sound starts playing but i cant stop it, and the progress bar doesn't move.
i would appreciate some help
I used this code in my app for using seekBar with MediaPlayer. It implements Runnable to keep the seekBar updating as the music plays. Take a look at the code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity implements Runnable,
OnClickListener, OnSeekBarChangeListener {
private SeekBar seekBar;
private Button startMedia;
private Button stopMedia;
private MediaPlayer mp;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
seekBar = (SeekBar) findViewById(R.id.seekBar1);
startMedia = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button1);
stopMedia = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button2);
startMedia.setOnClickListener(this);
stopMedia.setOnClickListener(this);
seekBar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(this);
seekBar.setEnabled(false);
}
public void run() {
int currentPosition = mp.getCurrentPosition();
int total = mp.getDuration();
while (mp != null && currentPosition < total) {
try {
Thread.sleep(1000);
currentPosition = mp.getCurrentPosition();
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
return;
} catch (Exception e) {
return;
}
seekBar.setProgress(currentPosition);
}
}
public void onClick(View v) {
if (v.equals(startMedia)) {
if (mp == null) {
mp = MediaPlayer.create(getApplicationContext(), R.raw.song2);
seekBar.setEnabled(true);
}
if (mp.isPlaying()) {
mp.pause();
startMedia.setText("play");
} else {
mp.start();
startMedia.setText("pause");
seekBar.setMax(mp.getDuration());
new Thread(this).start();
}
}
if (v.equals(stopMedia) && mp != null) {
if (mp.isPlaying() || mp.getDuration() > 0) {
mp.stop();
mp = null;
startMedia.setText("play");
seekBar.setProgress(0);
}
}
}
public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,
boolean fromUser) {
try {
if (mp.isPlaying() || mp != null) {
if (fromUser)
mp.seekTo(progress);
} else if (mp == null) {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Media is not running",
Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
seekBar.setProgress(0);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.e("seek bar", "" + e);
seekBar.setEnabled(false);
}
}
#Override
public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

#Override

How to use Media Player In Android?

I have created demo for media player in Android.I'm facing the problem while start to run my application.When my app is run song is playing but not playing the full song it just start and immediately finish means it just start activity and immediately goes to resume() state.And when song is get over the i again restart my activity song is not playing from beginning it start from middle.I'm facing this problem last 1 week and i don't understand how to solve it .Please can any one help me.Here is my code.Thanks in advanced.

}
finish();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
}
the starting from middle of the song problem is because you store the current progress of song in SharedPreferences and then at onResume() you start the player from the progressed position that stored at SharedPreferences
It's better to register for OnPreapredListener via MediaPlayer.setOnPreaparedListener and after preparation you start your media playback.
Official guide:
http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/mediaplayer.html
Please try to use bellow code.
void play() {
mediaPlayer = MediaPlayer.create(
getApplicationContext(), R.raw.keytone);
try {
mediaPlayer.prepare();
} catch (IllegalStateException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
mediaPlayer.start();
}
private void pause()
{
mediaPlayer.release();
}
