How to play audio file from raw/assets folder on the native/default media player?

Question

I know i can play an mp3 file in the media player like that:

Intent intent = new Intent();  
intent.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);  
File fil         


        

Answer 1

If you just need to set the sound URI on the Notification.Builder, use

 Uri.parse("android.resource://com.my.great.application/"
                        + R.raw.mysound);

where R.raw.mysound can be something like mysoud.ogg in the raw resources folder.

However I am not sure if MP3 is exactly supported. As these are just internal resources of your application, try to convert to OGG.
