I suspect the built in Music app works that way. In general, though, MediaPlayer isn't activity-specific, so it should work in a service just as it would in an activity. You might want to use the new startForeground() method, though, to keep it playing and put a Notification in the status bar at the same time. > The examples I found had a single audio being played and > stopped via the service and I could not figure out how to add more > than one audio file. Register a listener with the MediaPlayer and kick off the next file. If the gap becomes a problem, consider using two MediaPlayers, working back-to-back -- when #1 stops, you start #2 while doing prepareAsuync() on #1 to ready it for the next go-around. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _Beginning Android_ from Apress Now Available! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
