How to play song in Android - phonegap [closed]

Answer 1

why dont you just play the songs using the HTML 5 audio tag? Your view is a webView.. is shouldn't matter, it is simpler and you have more control.

Answer 2

PhoneGap for Android lets you store local audio files in two places: android_asset: file name must start with /android_asset/sound.mp3 sdcard: file name is just sound.mp3

If you place your DANCE.mp3 file in your project's assets directory, then you can play it using the path:

mp3file = new Media("/android_asset/DANCE.mp3",
        function() {
            alert("playAudio():Audio Success");
        },
            function(err) {
                alert(err);
        }
        );
      mp3file.play();

(You can read the source for AudioPlayer.java in the Android PhoneGap sources to see how this works.)

Answer 3

I have found out where was my mistake. The audio file that I want to play was not placed properly, as I thought at first. I had moved it in /sdcard folder and everything was just wonderful! P.S. I use only filename, no folders.

Answer 4

Can I offer an advice.. If you use the PhoneGap Media player.. You need to remove the file:// from the path.. It doesn not accept a full URI for local files Regards Kim
