How to play audio in splash screen in android

How to play an audio d开发者_JS百科uring splash screen. Guidance needed.

My way to do this (no external sound needed, since I put my soundfile in my resources-folder):

In onCreate:

mp = MediaPlayer.create(getBaseContext(), R.raw.sound); /*Gets your 
soundfile from res/raw/sound.ogg */
mp.start(); //Starts your sound

//Continue with your run/thread-code here

Remember to have the sound in .ogg-format; it's fully supported in Android.

An important thing below about handling the sound when the Splash Screen activity is stopped:

There are two general ways to manage the Splash Screen (and the sound inside it) when it's stopped:

1. Destroy the whole activity:

   protected void onStop() {
     super.onStop();
   
     ur.removeCallbacks(myRunnable); /*If the application is stopped;
   remove the callback, so the next time the 
   application starts it shows the Splash Screen again, and also, so the
   thread-code,
   don't continue after the application has stopped */
   
     finish();
     onDestroy();
   }
   

2. Or you can just stop the sound in onStop:

    protected void onStop() {
   super.onStop();
   if(mp.isPlaying()){ //Must check if it's playing, otherwise it may be a NPE
       mp.pause(); //Pauses the sound
       ur.removeCallbacks(myRunnable);
       }
   }
   

If you choose the second alternative you also have to start your Callback and MediaPlayer in the onStart-method.

I prefer the first alternative.

You can play audio files using the MediaPlayer class.

Example

MediaPlayer player = new MediaPlayer();
player.setDataSource("/sdcard/audiotrack.mp3");
player.prepare();
player.start();
