avaudioplayer

Is there a memory lead issue with the AVAudioPlayer object? I'm getting a memory leak when using AVAudioPlayer in the simulator. It doesn't matter how I created the AVAudioPlayer. I've used initWithContentsOfURL and InitWithData . Below is a snippet of the code. Full project @ Github https://github.com/docchang/MemoryLeakAVAudioPlayer NSError *error; NSURL *playerURL = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"Bell" ofType:@"m4a"]]; self.playerWithURL = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:playerURL error:&error]; if (!playerWithURL) { NSLog(@"no %@.%@: %@",@

This is the code I'm using now, and it's not working (nothing happens when I press the button that calls this method). Previously, I had a property for audioPlayer and it worked (all the audioPlayers below were self.audioPlayer obviously). The problem was that when I tried to play the sound twice, it would end the first sound playing. This is no good because I'm making a soundboard and want sounds to be able to overlap. I thought I could just make audioPlayer a local variable instead of a property and all would be ok but now the sound doesn't work at all and I can't figure out why. In all

I am using AVAudioplayer to play some audio files. I have some controls like forward and rewind. Rewind is working properly but forward is not. - (void)rewind { AVAudioPlayer *player = _rewTimer.userInfo; player.currentTime-= SKIP_TIME; [_rewTimer invalidate]; _rewTimer=nil; [self updateCurrentTime]; } - (void)ffwd { AVAudioPlayer *player = _ffwTimer.userInfo; player.currentTime-= SKIP_TIME; [player setCurrentTime:cTime]; [_ffwTimer invalidate]; _ffwTimer=nil; [self updateCurrentTime]; } As soon as I click on forward button, the audio file just begins playing from the start. I have followed

This code plays the sound when the button is tapped but cancels the previous if it is pressed again. I do not want this to happen I want the same sound to overlap when repeatedly pressed. I believe it might be due to using the same AVAudioPlayer as I have looked on the internet but I am new to swift and want to know how to create a new AVAudioPlayer everytime the method runs so the sounds overlap. func playSound(sound:String){ // Set the sound file name & extension let soundPath = NSURL(fileURLWithPath:NSBundle.mainBundle().pathForResource(sound, ofType: "mp3")!) do { //Preperation try

NSError *err; // Initialize audio player audioPlayer = [[AVAudioPlayer alloc] initWithContentsOfURL:url error:&err]; audioPlayer.delegate = self; [audioPlayer play]; With the code above, I'm trying to initialize playback of a .mp3 file, however the playback does not start at all. There is no sound. What am I doing wrong? I have inspected 'err' and there is nothing there. Edit: After adding AVAudioSession, I'm getting the following error from AVAudioPlayer The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -43.) Apparently AVAudioPlayer does not support streaming via. HTTP as I was trying to

I have a quick question: I am loading a mp3 file into a NSData object and then I play it using the AVAudioPlayer in my game. Every second or so, the frame rate drops and you can see a stuttering on the screen. It is not a major slowdown, but clearly noticeable and disrupting to the gameplay. Not playing the music track with the AVAudioPlayer shows no slow down at all. How can I prevent this from happening? Thank you. Florian For future reference, here is the solution: Setting the audio session category to kAudioSessionCategory_AmbientSound (to allow for iPod music to play simultaneously)
