Loading MP3s into the Sound Pool in Android
I want to load a couple of MP3s into the sound pool, but I will only be using these MP3s on Activity 3, is it possible to load the MP3s in Activity 1? Or is this limited to the Activity that loads it uses it? I can't find the answer in the docs. You can load them anytime and use them everywhere. The best thing to re-use the SoundPool object would be to extend the Application class and declare a private variable in there that is your SoundPool . Something like: class MyApp extends Application { private static MyApp singleton; private static SoundPool mSoundPool; public onCreate() { super
