I'm trying to play an .mp3 file as follows:
<audio src="sound/som.mp3" autoplay></audio>
When I open the .html file on my PC, the audio plays normally, but when I compile using phonegap, and I open the android, nothing happens. Any light? Thank you in advance.
For Android, you must set permissions in addition to manipulating the media object with the appropriate plugin.
Permissions on Android
(in app/res/xml/config.xml)
<feature name="Media">
<param name="android-package" value="org.apache.cordova.media.AudioHandler" />
</feature>
(in app/AndroidManifest.xml)
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MODIFY_AUDIO_SETTINGS" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
Media Object
// Audio player
//
var meu_objeto_media = new Media(src, onSuccess, onError);
'src' is your file path. The other parameters are callbacks .
After instantiating your Media object execute the play method:
// Play audio
meu_objeto_media.play();
See an example here .
The <audio src="sound/som.mp3" autoplay></audio> tag only works on android 5.x by using the webview as a separate app, in the previous versions it has to do the way it was answered above
