I am trying to play background music in simple game on Android using Services.
Using the link: Android Life Cycles
But this code doesn't work properly, onResumeActivity, onPauseActivity are called but the music keep running in background even when the onPauseActivity method is called.
The music keeps on playing while the app is in background.
is there any other way to play background music in an Android App/Game??
I think this code will work for you. Add this class (Enclosed in your activity class).
public class BackgroundMusic extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {
@Override
protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {
MediaPlayer backgroundmusic = MediaPlayer.create(YourActivity.this, R.raw.yourbackgroundmusic);
player.setVolume(100,100);
player.setLooping(true);
player.start();
return null;
}
}
And create it
BackgroundMusic bm = new BackgroundMusic();
On onResume method:
public void onResume() {
super.onResume();
bm.execute(null);
}
And onPause method:
public void onPause() {
super.onPause();
bm.cancel(true);
}
Hope this help!
