Android :: Unable To Play Short MediaPlayer Sound
Apr 23, 2009
I have this task: Need to play short (0.3-0.4 sec) sounds all the time. When sound is played, it should start again, etc. User can press button to reset sound - it should stop and lunch.
I did many tests. I tried to create 1 MediaPlayer, then do this: MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener complListener = new MediaPlayer.OnCompletionListener; code...
It works great on emulator and on device if I have eclipse+debugger on. When I disconnect debugger, I have very strange errors - sound can stop at all (till program restart), sound can start "repeating" (play 0.1-0.2 sec, then restart). Can someone please provide me some info about problem?

I have an app that worked fine on Android 2.1 (Eclair) but is no longer working in 2.2.1 (Froyo). I think this may have to do with the shift from OpenCore to StageFright for video encoding and decoding, but am unsure.
The debug logs show two things I'm not sure about:
Does this mean H.264 baseline is not supported? WARN/QCvdec(59): Parsing Error unsupported profile or level No idea about: ERROR/PVOMXVidDecNode(59): Ln 1373 OMX_EventError nData1 -2147479542 nData2 0
Play the following url (it works fine in VLC, for example): rtsp://nexus3.dropcam.com/6821ec44e37846428850ec195d69969a

I'm using the SoundPool to play a series of small audio clips and am having issues with the audio when it starts. I have the audio attached to a button press. When I press the button mulitple times the tick persists. I was wondering if this was the audio file itself or is there something I need to do differently with the SoundPool other than play simply play the clip. These are .ogg files I created using Audacity. When I play them in my dekstop media player, they sound fine.

I need to use MediaPlayer to play some sounds, as they were too large in size for the SoundPool class.
The constructor takes a single sound file. I have, potentially, around 20 files that I want to play, randomly and instantly, like sounds in a game.
Do I have to create a new MediaPlayer object for each sound? i.e...
MediaPlayer mp1 = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.sound1); MediaPlayer mp2 = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.sound2); MediaPlayer mp3 = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.sound3); MediaPlayer mp4 = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.sound4);
That seems expensive...

I downloaded an application named Todderlock so my children could just meddle around with my phone while they sat in my lap. However, the sound stops working after a non-specific amount of "dings" when either tapping the shapes around the screen, or when dragging your finger along the screen to make the same type of noise, but much more rapidly.
Thinking this was an application problem, I had my wife download Todderlock on her HTC Hero, and the sound works without issue.
So, I shrugged that off and went looking for other neat applications to download...I downloaded Bug Squash I, II and III and they all suffer from the same problem: after squishing X amount of bugs, the SFX stop (the music continues however), and I have to restart the application to enjoy the sound for as long as it lasts.
I was getting suspicious, so I loaded up Robo Defense FREE and the same thing happens when the turrets are firing...after X amount of shots fired, all sound ceases to work.
I have not been able to find a similar problem with the HTC Evo on Google or here on the Android forums, considering my wife's Hero works without issue on all the sound issues I am having.
As far as I know, phone notifications and ringers continue to work after the application has "disabled" the sound. I have not reset the phone to factory settings or anything, but I have restarted the phone itself numerous times, and the problem still persists.

is there a way to find the 'noise produced' by a currently playing sound (MediaPlayer) -Like in many music editor software you import a song and it does a graphical layout of the song -like a graph with it higher up at louder bits. Hard to explain. But there must be a way to do this on android...

I'm just trying to play a local video that is a resource with the MediaPlayer class in the most simple way possible. I have confirmed that the video works with players that I download from the marketplace, so I'm assuming that's not the issue.
The problem is that I just get a black screen with no video. There is audio from the file playing though, so I know that the file resource is being accessed correctly, it's just not showing anything on the screen in the emulator.
The one other note is that at any time whenever I try to access getVideoWidth() or getVideoHeight() I get this (non-blocking) error:
ERROR/MediaPlayerService(24): getVideoSize returned -1
Any ideas as to what I could be doing wrong?
import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.SurfaceView; import android.view.SurfaceHolder; import android.media.MediaPlayer;
Code...

Why does my MediaPlayer
MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.somemusic); mp.setLooping(true); mp.start();
stop, wenn I change the layout?
setContentView(R.layout.screenoptions);
and also suddenly in my game, the sound stops. What could be the reason?
And which one is better? MediaPlayer or SoundPool?

Is it possible to have two instances of MediaPlayer to play sounds/ video? How many instances are actually allowed? I can see from the Javadocs that there is a limited amount of instances of MediaPlayer allowed.

Can anyone tell me if the Android MediaPlayer class is able to play a video stored in a remoted URL? Just for testing purposes, can I use the URL http://localhost/video-name.3gp. Another question is if the MediaPlayer works well on the emulator?

I have a requirement to play several sounds many times in my game so instead of creating the MediaPlayer again and again I have called mp.seekTo(0) in onCompletion(mp) so that it will restart. Sometimes the sound is not audible from the device when I call mp.start () after setting mp.seekTo(0); but the player calls onCompletion() without playing any sound, this is observed randomly on most of the sounds
My sounds are of short duration mostly less than a second.
I am using a separate MediaPlayer for each sound (as I need this) -
There are almost 28 sounds in my game so i will be creating 28 MediaPlayers.
Below is the attached code for player
Also If I try to play many sounds one after the other in a short period of time i get an error saying "no more track names available". can u tell Why this is happening...?
check the below code:

I'm trying to use a ListPreference to decide which sound to play on a button click.
I have this at the top:
public String greensound;
Here's my OnClick code:................
I also tried removing the default value here it didnt seem to change anything but, should it be removed?
Here's my Settings.java:
package com.my.app;
CODE:...........
And here's my array's if that will help at all:
CODE:............
Here's a logcat that kinda looked possibly related:
CODE:..........
For those that might ask here's my DDMS > File Explorer > Data > Data > packageName > SharedPreferences This is what was in there:
com.my.app_preferences.xml:
CODE:...................
This all really confuses me more because...It looks like greensound does == gsone so.... I don't understand whats wrong its not even playing the default sound. and yes i've tested all this code without the listpreference code and they work great. I'm not sure what's wrong?

In my class I have an OnTouchEvent and when a certain area is clicked, it will play a sound (Not sure if this is the best way to go about this?). However I have been running into bugs using the MediaPlayer. Sound will double play and then eventually sound will stop completely. I am wondering how to efficiently play 5 sounds. The user will be clicking the screen in different areas and different sounds will be playing. I have the attached code below but it only has the first area. Say I add in another area how would I go about changing the media player to play a different sound.
@Override public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent e) {
x = e.getX(); y = e.getY();
if (x >= 232 && x<=287 && y>=117 && y<=157) {
//PLAY SOUND } return true;

Could it be possible now, which we can develop an Android application having the following requirement for its working steps Automatic receive the call, then Play some sound out to the caller, wait for DTMF response, then Record the caller sound (in the case that they permit, by pressing 1 as DTMF response)Callee can play back the recoreded sound later.

What could be the reason that a mp4 video file without sound doesn't play correctly when using the VideoView class? The video plays just fine in vlc, mplayer and ubuntu media player. It has been created on the device using ffmpeg. It is like 5 seconds long, so nothing especially big. Codec is H263 with AAC-Audio, though the audio signal is just empty. The problem is, that the video plays, but the image doesn't change, or at least doesn't change a lot. It seems more like a still image, though small movements is sometimes visible but not at all what has been encoded. I noticed that the VideoView stops playing but the time continues to step up, so it doesn't stop counting after 5 seconds but just goes on counting.
I'm using the emulator. Can that be related? I see the following messages in logcat:
