Android :: Playing Multiple Sounds - Error Shown On Log
May 19, 2010
I'm playing some MediaPlayer instances at the same time (4 or 5) but sometimes when I try to start a new media player it doesn't work and an error is shown on the log:
E/AudioFlinger( 1073): no more track names availlable E/AudioTrack( 1073): AudioFlinger could not create track, status: -12 E/AudioSink( 1073): Unable to create audio track E/VorbisPlayer( 1073): mAudioSink open failed
It also happens when there're only 3 or 2 MediaPlayer playing at the same time. What does it mean this error? How can I workaround with it? Actually checking the isPlaying() after the start() call does not seem very helpful as every call returns true. I've to say that every MediaPlayer is created once via MediaPlayer.create.

I am unable to use the following to code to play multiple sounds/beeps simultaneously. In my onclicklistener I have added
... public void onClick(View v) { mSoundManager.playSound(1);
mSoundManager.playSound(2); } ...
But this plays only one sound at a time, sound with index 1 followed by sound with index 2. How can I play atleast 2 sounds simultaneously using this code whenever there is an onClick() event?
public class SoundManager {
private SoundPool mSoundPool;
private HashMap<Integer, Integer> mSoundPoolMap;
private AudioManager mAudioManager;
private Context mContext;
public SoundManager() {
} public void initSounds(Context theContext) {
mContext = theContext; mSoundPool = new SoundPool(4, AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC, 0);
mSoundPoolMap = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();
mAudioManager = (AudioManager)mContext.getSystemService(Context.AUDIO_SERVICE);
} public void addSound(int Index,int SoundID)
{ mSoundPoolMap.put(1, mSoundPool.load(mContext, SoundID, 1));
} public void playSound(int index) {
int streamVolume = mAudioManager.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mSoundPool.play(mSoundPoolMap.get(index), streamVolume, streamVolume, 1, 0, 1f);
} public void playLoopedSound(int index) {
int streamVolume = mAudioManager.getStreamVolume(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
mSoundPool.play(mSoundPoolMap.get(index), streamVolume, streamVolume, 1, -1, 1f);
} }

Shown are a few lines of code. If I play a single sound, it runs fine. Adding a second sound causes it to crash.
private SoundManager mSoundManager;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); setContentView(R.layout.sos);
mSoundManager = new SoundManager(); mSoundManager.initSounds(getBaseContext());
mSoundManager.addSound(1,R.raw.dit); mSoundManager.addSound(1,R.raw.dah);
Button SoundButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.SoundButton);
SoundButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) { mSoundManager.playSound(1);
mSoundManager.playSound(2); } } ); }

Why I might have 2 of every sound listed on my phone? When I go to change ringtone or notification sounds there are 2 of every sound listed. Both options work, too.

I have 5 mp3 files stored on the assets folder. The files are all 25 KB. I load the files using:
manager = context.getAssets();
this.inputStream = manager.openFd(fileName).createInputStream();
Whenever I try to play the files, the sounds are all messed up like they were mixed or something.
I've zip aligned the app already but with no results.

I am working on the Eclipse Emulator and with SDK 1.0 Release 2. What I would like to do is to play a simple C note with with code. Does android provide the necessary interface to produce such note sounds? Is there a sound library and API I can readily use on the device (and emulator)?

I have an application that I developed using the Android 1.1 SDK that I am trying to port to Android 1.5. In my application, I record a sound through the microphone and then do various things with it, including playing it back using a MediaPlayer object. My code works fine when I use the 1.1 target, but when I use a 1.5 target I get this error when setting up the player:
Command PLAYER_SET_DATA_SOURCE completed with an error or info PVMFErrNotSupported error (1, -4) Couldn't setup MediaPlayer java.io.IOException: Prepare failed.: status=0x1 at android.media.MediaPlayer.prepare(Native Method) at org.byu.chum.AudioUtils.AudioRecording.stopRecording (AudioRecording.java:92) at org.byu.chum.SoundRecorder.Recorder$StopListener.onClick (Recorder.java:198)...
It seems like Android isn't liking the format of my media, but I don't know why, since I just recorded that very format on the Android device. Here's the code that is throwing the error:
player = new MediaPlayer();
try { player.setDataSource(recordFile.toString());
player.prepare(); } catch (IOException e) { Log.e("playRecording", "Couldn't setup MediaPlayer", e); }

I have some pretty simple Soundboard applications on the Android Market that work flawless on an LG Ally, the Motorola Droid, and the Nexus One, but I recently received an e-mail from a user with the Motorola DroidX claiming that most of the sounds do not work. I've exchanged a few e-mails with him. He claims the Soundboard is the only application running, and he's double checked to make sure that the Media Volume wasn't set to minimum. I really don't have access to one either to play around with. The application isn't doing anything cosmic to play the sounds. Below is a code snippet. Any insights into what might be causing the hang up are greatly appreciated.
public void play(Sample sample) {
Log.v(TAG, "Playing: " + getString(sample.getButtonTextResId()) + " (" + sample.getSoundResId() + ")");
if (mPlayer != null) { mPlayer.stop(); mPlayer.release();
} MediaPlayer player = MediaPlayer.create(this, sample.getSoundResId());
mPlayer = player; if (player != null) { player.setVolume(1.0f, 1.0f);
player.setOnCompletionListener(new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener() {
@Override public void onCompletion(MediaPlayer mp) { mp.release();
mPlayer = null; } } ); player.start(); } }

I just noticed a very unpleasant thing about the wildfire - while listening to music (or when playing any other sound), I can hear subtle hissing in the background. It is almost unnoticeable when I'm outdoors and there's noise outside, but it prevents me from listening more quiet music like jazz at home.
Can anything be done about it? Do you people also hear that (you have to be in complete silence and use decent headphones - the hissing is easy to notice as it disappears after 2 or 3 seconds after you pause music). I was so happy about my wildfire - I have 16gb sdcard so I thought it would make a great mp3 player.

I've created multiple sub calendars within my standard gmail calendar account to managed my kids calendars. Doesn't look as though these calendars will come over to my Eris running 1.6. Is that correct? Any work around or am I missing something?
In the calendar option on the phone I see:
My calendar

I think I should know this, but my mind has gone blank. I'm making an app that has a few hundred small sound files and I want it to play a certain file dependent on a String I pass to the function. Where I hit the brick wall is getting the resId of the sound file.

Is it possible to set different notification sounds for different contacts? By this, specifically, can the Incredible be set to play one ringtone for my husband's texts and a different ringtone for my sister's texts? And if so, how?

I am trying to play audio buffered sound (.wav) using AudioTrack. Please see the code below. I need to call this function under a Thread to support simultaneous play. It is fine being under a Thread. It is working fine playing the sound normally. But if i execute playing the sound using AudioTrack one after another continuously (i.e. executing second play before completing the first play sound), produces device crash (force close unexpectedly error). Does anyone come across such problems and resolve it in a way?

I have a Droid Bionic. I like it. But I was recently having some GMail syncing issues and during the troubleshooting for that I uninstalled the latest GMail update and reinstalled it. As a result, GMail is now doing audible notificatrion sounds for new email when before I only had notification in t he notification bar. I can't seem to get it turned off. I still want calendar events and texts to sound so I don't want to silence the phone but I want email and GMail to be silent (Notification icon only).

Are there design guidelines to help decide if an application with multiple views should be designed with multiple activities or just one activity and control the back button itself.
I've tried both. My most complex applications using one activity per screen. However, now that I'm successfully written an app with just one activity and handling the back button myself, I don't see any compelling reason to use multiple activities. The one activity application is much simpler and more straightforward.
What advantages of multiple activities am I missing?

I'm working on an application using xml layouts.
I wish to know which is better:
1. Use few activities and change its contentview
2. Use an activity for each 'view' needed
If both works, in which case which option would be better?

I'm planning to develop and app that presents the users with several different screens (of different information).
Was wondering what would be the best way to implement this?
Is it better to have separate XML layouts and an activity to display and allow the user to interact with each screen of data?
OR would handling all of these in the same activity be more efficient (and dynamically load / unload each layout)?

For any Android project that I create using Eclipse, I cannot see the preview of the XML layout that I define. It gives a message saying "Eclipse is loading framework information and Layout library from the SDK folder. XXX.xml will refresh automatically once the process is finished."

I followed the instructions from the google hellomapview tutorial. I get a working mapview etc. But the two items that are added to the map are not shown. It seems they are there somewhere because tapping at the specified location shows the message that was added to the items.
Here is my source code. It should be very close to the google tutorial source code.
