AVAudioPlayer - playing a playlist

ae262 · 09-13-2011, 10:35 PM

Hi guys,

Need help with this - I am playing a song by an AVAudioPlayer (player). I need to find when the song is over so I can start the next song.

I am running a loop (NSRunLoop) for the duration of the song and then change the file name for the player. I feel there should be better way of doing this but can't seem to find anything.

I want something that remains compatible with my pausing and skipping to the next sound etc.

I thought this should have been a fairly easy thing to accomplish but I have been stuck on this for over a day now. Any suggestions.

Many thanks.

AVAudioPlayer has a delegate. It calls this delegate and informs it that it has completed playing the audio file through this method:

Code:


	Quote:
	
	
		
			
				audioPlayerDidFinishPlaying:successfully:

Called when a sound has finished playing.
- (void)audioPlayerDidFinishPlaying:(AVAudioPlayer *)player successfully:(BOOL)flag
Parameters

player

    The audio player that finished playing.
flag

    YES on successful completion of playback; NO if playback stopped because the system could not decode the audio data.

Discussion

This method is not called upon an audio interruption. Rather, an audio player is paused upon interruption—the sound has not finished playing.
