AVplayer resuming after incoming call

Question

I am using AVPlayer for music playback. My problem is that after an incoming call, the player won\'t resume. How do I handle this when an incoming call comes?

Answer 1

AVAudioSession will send a notification when an interruption starts and ends. See Handling Audio Interruptions

- (id)init
{
    if (self = [super init]) {
        [[AVAudioSession sharedInstance] setCategory:AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayback error:nil];

        NSNotificationCenter *center = [NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter];
        [center addObserver:self selector:@selector(audioSessionInterrupted:) name:AVAudioSessionInterruptionNotification object:nil];
    }
}

- (void)audioSessionInterrupted:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    int interruptionType = [notification.userInfo[AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeKey] intValue];
    if (interruptionType == AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeBegan) {
        if (_state == GBPlayerStateBuffering || _state == GBPlayerStatePlaying) {
            NSLog(@"Pausing for audio session interruption");
            pausedForAudioSessionInterruption = YES;
            [self pause];
        }
    } else if (interruptionType == AVAudioSessionInterruptionTypeEnded) {
        if ([notification.userInfo[AVAudioSessionInterruptionOptionKey] intValue] == AVAudioSessionInterruptionOptionShouldResume) {
            if (pausedForAudioSessionInterruption) {
                NSLog(@"Resuming after audio session interruption");
                [self play];
            }
        }
        pausedForAudioSessionInterruption = NO;
    }
}
