When this happens getHysteriaPlayerStatus returns HysteriaPlayerStatusBuffering.

I am using the sample code:

    if ([hysteriaPlayer isPlaying])
    {
        [hysteriaPlayer pausePlayerForcibly:YES];
        [hysteriaPlayer pause];
    }else{
        [hysteriaPlayer pausePlayerForcibly:NO];
        [hysteriaPlayer play];
    }

My player becomes stuck either playing or buffering but never forced pause.

PAUSE_REASON_Buffering doesn't seem to ever be reset to NO.

Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me use HysteriaPlayer with a tableview so that when someone clicks on the tableviewcell it plays the audio and you can click next or previous. The tableview would be populated with songs from different urls. Thanks.

It's much clear and flexible.

@class AVPlayerItem;

// Including NSObject to perform respondsToSelector:
@protocol HysteriaPlayerDelegate<NSObject>

@required
- (void)playerReadyToPlay;
- (void)playerRateChanged;
- (void)playerCurrentItemChanged:(AVPlayerItem *)item;
- (void)playerCurrentItemReadyToPlay;

@optional
- (void)playerFailed;
- (void)playerDidReachEnd;
- (HysteriaBufferingStatus)PlayerBufferingStatusChanged;

I want to be able to listen to AVPlayerItemStatusFailed. This should be provided as a callback and there should be an option to indicate whether the developer wants it to playNext.

if (object == audioPlayer.currentItem && [keyPath isEqualToString:@"status"]) {
        if (audioPlayer.currentItem.status == AVPlayerItemStatusFailed) {
            NSLog(@"------player item failed:%@",audioPlayer.currentItem.error);
            [self playNext];
        }

AVPlayer has a instance method called seekToTime:completionHandler

  - (void)seekToTime:(CMTime)time completionHandler:(void (^)(BOOL finished))completionHandler

This makes it way easier to keep the UI in sync. Let me know what you think.
Could submit a pull request later today.

I am getting this warning in the debug console. Any idea?

Could this be an issue when using the player in multiple view controllers?

Thanks!

An instance 0x1d894930 of class AVQueuePlayer was deallocated while key value observers were still registered with it. Observation info was leaked, and may even become mistakenly attached to some other object. Set a breakpoint on NSKVODeallocateBreak to stop here in the debugger. Here's the current observation info:
<NSKeyValueObservationInfo 0x1c5acad0> (
<NSKeyValueObservance 0x1c5d71a0: Observer: 0x1c5cfa30, Key path: status, Options: <New: YES, Old: NO, Prior: NO> Context: 0x0, Property: 0x1d896220>
<NSKeyValueObservance 0x1c5d8000: Observer: 0x1c5cfa30, Key path: rate, Options: <New: NO, Old: NO, Prior: NO> Context: 0x0, Property: 0x1c5d8080>

Hii,
. Thanks for giving good sample and i planned to download some audios to play on offline mode , is there any possibility please help me.

Thanks,

Run on simulators, will shows unable to register background playback log.

Not big deal but ugly.

Is there any method, that could help me with track sound control. For example drag to 1m 25s of current track or something like that ?

Is there any method, that let audio playback from a specified time when play audio for the first time .
For example,
hysteriaPlayer = [[HysteriaPlayer sharedInstance]
initWithHandlerPlayerReadyToPlay:^{
if (![hysteriaPlayer isPlaying]) {
[hysteriaPlayer play];
[self syncPlayPauseButtons];
[hysteriaPlayer seekToTime:30.0f];
}
}
PlayerRateChanged:^{
[self syncPlayPauseButtons];
}
CurrentItemChanged:^(AVPlayerItem *newItem) {
if (newItem != (id)[NSNull null]) {
[self syncPlayPauseButtons];
}
}
ItemReadyToPlay:^{
if ([hysteriaPlayer pauseReason] == HysteriaPauseReasonUnknown) {
[hysteriaPlayer play];
}
}
PlayerFailed:^{}
PlayerDidReachEnd:^{
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:@"Player did reach end." message:nil delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:@"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
[alert show];
}];

On your Samples I add seektoTime function, but it is sometimes useful, sometimes useless.
Can you help me? Tell me how to do it? Thanks.

Hello, I am using the static array with a tableview and I was wondering if someone could help me. When I click on any of the tableview cells, it plays the first song on the list. How can it make it play the current song thats on that tableview cell instead of starting of from the top of the list. Thanks.

It is not clear for me how can I just feed player with mp3 array that lay on my app folder.
For example mp3Array = @[@"1.mp3", @"2.mp3", @"3.mp3"];
I have try also mp3Array = @[
[[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:@"1" ofType:@"mp3"],
[[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:@"2" ofType:@"mp3"],
[[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:@"3" ofType:@"mp3"]];

How can I create and implement HysteriaPlayer programmatically into my app connecting the UI components together.

Hi,
I have a search in my application and selected track should added to Audio Queue at current item and have to play newly added track.
As asyncSetupSourceGetter adds all track to the Audio Queue at once how can i achieve this one.
Thanks,
Shabana

Hi,

The player working fine but, some times not playing full song its calling didreachend method please help me what was the problem i am not getting .

Within audio_session_interruption_listener, [hysteriaPlayer isPlaying] sometimes fails to detect that there's a song playing. (My guess is that this has to do with the interruption itself forcing the player to pause before isPlaying is checked in the interruption event listener.) As a result, interruptedWhilePlaying is never set to YES, and so when the interruption ends, the currently playing song isn't resumed.

Hi ,
How to store Cached song in Document Directory.

Unified Buffer Cache.

OS will purge this UBC when it realizes that memory is tight, so there's no cache our AVPlayerItem could refers to.

Hello,
beginReceivingRemoteControlEvents seemed only reacts for UIResponder subclass. So it will be much clear let the UIViewController to implement it.

(void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    [self startRemoteControlEvents];
.....
}

#pragma mark - 
#pragma mark ===========  iOS7 Control Center  =========
#pragma mark -

-(BOOL)canBecomeFirstResponder {
    return YES;
}

-(void) startRemoteControlEvents {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] beginReceivingRemoteControlEvents];
    [self becomeFirstResponder];
}

-(void) endRemoteControlEvents {
    [[UIApplication sharedApplication] endReceivingRemoteControlEvents];
    [self resignFirstResponder];
}

-(void)remoteControlReceivedWithEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
    switch (event.subtype) {
        case UIEventSubtypeRemoteControlTogglePlayPause:
            [self play_pause:nil];
            break;
        case UIEventSubtypeRemoteControlPlay:
            [self play_pause:nil];
            break;
        case UIEventSubtypeRemoteControlPause:
            [self play_pause:nil];
            break;
        case UIEventSubtypeRemoteControlNextTrack:
            [self playNext:nil];
            break;
        case UIEventSubtypeRemoteControlPreviousTrack :
            [self playPreviouse:nil];
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }
}

Anyone can confirm ?

HI @saiday

Player is not playing all formats i have urls in multiple formats like mp3, m4u,m3u8
the player is playing only mp3 files is there any possibility to support multiple formats of audio . ?

sample urls are :

thanks

[!] Invalid string representation for a Specification: `HysteriaPlayer`.String representation should include the name and the version of a pod.

# Podfile
pod 'HysteriaPlayer', :git => 'https://github.com/StreetVoice/HysteriaPlayer.git'

Using CocoaPods 0.29.0

After many times HysteriaPlayer implementing, figured out that some callback blocks were not a good pattern for Players.
I detached UI related callback blocks into delegation pattern. Make it easier and elegant for Players.

When delegation version(2.x) is out, callback block version(1.x) would be deprecated.
Would not have two versions alive at the same time.

This would be a huge update and it comes out with tutorials, good for you!

Thanks @JacobSyndeo pointing this out. This should be optimized.

There doesn't appear to be any tracking of which songs have already been played in the playNext method… just a raw randomizing function:
index = arc4random() % items_count;

Hi,

I am unable to play a shoutcast stream like goovesalad from somaFM.

http://ice.somafm.com/groovesalad

AVPlayer ask only for 1 byte then connection is stopped.

Do you have an idea?

Thanks

Thanks for great class.

I checked documentation and couldn't find how can I get length of all tracks (e.g. mp3 files) when playing local media.

Can you help?

Thanks.

how to update the currentTime periodically? there is a getPlayingItemCurrentTime method, but when should I call it?

in AVPlayer, there is a function, which can add the observer to AVPlayer and perform periodic update in a time interval.

• (id)addPeriodicTimeObserverForInterval:(CMTime)interval queue:(dispatch_queue_t)queue usingBlock:(void (^)(CMTime time))block;

Thanks.

It would be useful to have a delegate method that gives both the current file's total size and how much data has been loaded up to this point. This could be used to calculate the percentage of the file that has buffered, which would be nice for UI to be able to show the user how far ahead the buffer is.

Hi,
I have downloaded the next track and saved in document directory,but i am unable to play the downloaded audio as asyncSetupSourceGetter in createAudioPlayer is called once in the beginning.
Please help me out to solve this problem.
thanks,
Shabana

Hello,
Can we have a property for bufferdTime or getPlayerTime can include it ?

            CMTime bufferdTime = CMTimeAdd(timerange.start, timerange.duration);

This is need when drawing time & buffering progress bar.
Thanks for your great job!

Thanks @JacobSyndeo pointing this out. This should be optimized.

Hi, i am facing a problem with HLS urls, audio is not playing via HLS

http://playertest.longtailvideo.com/adaptive/bipbop/bipbop.m3u8

Hi,
I'm feeding the player with a NSURL array of mp3 stored locally in the device documents folder. When playing in foreground everything works fine but when I send the app on background the mp3 is not fully played.

This is the initialization code for the player:

[hysteriaPlayer registerHandlerPlayerRateChanged:^{

    } CurrentItemChanged:^(AVPlayerItem *item) {
        if(!self.firstPlay){
            [self configureView];
        }

    } PlayerDidReachEnd:^{
        NSLog(@"on end");
    }];

    [hysteriaPlayer registerHandlerReadyToPlay:^(HysteriaPlayerReadyToPlay identifier) {
        switch (identifier) {
            case HysteriaPlayerReadyToPlayCurrentItem:
                if ([hysteriaPlayer getHysteriaPlayerStatus] != HysteriaPlayerStatusForcePause) {
                    [hysteriaPlayer play];
                }
                break;
            case HysteriaPlayerReadyToPlayPlayer:
                [hysteriaPlayer play];
                break;

            default:
                break;
        }
    }];

    [hysteriaPlayer registerHandlerFailed:^(HysteriaPlayerFailed identifier, NSError *error) {
        switch (identifier) {
            case HysteriaPlayerFailedPlayer:
                break;

            case HysteriaPlayerFailedCurrentItem:
                break;
            default:
                break;
        }
        NSLog(@"%@", [error localizedDescription]);
    }];

Audio background mode is selected in my info.plist as well as receiving remote events for the current controller in order to use the ios7 remote controls.

We are using Pjsip in TCP mode and already configured keep alive. Application running smoothly in background But after some time when App is trying to re register with SIP server registration message has been sent and app is not getting response,App is getting stuck at the time and then it won't work any more in background. After killing it works OK. can you advise what we are missing ?

Some time its work for 3-4 hours and some time it stop even in 5 minutes :(

Running This code when app is background :

• (void)applicationDidEnterBackground:(UIApplication *)application {

  [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(keepAlive) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];

  [application setKeepAliveTimeout:KEEP_ALIVE_INTERVAL handler: ^{
  [self performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(keepAlive) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:YES];
  }];
  }

• (void)keepAlive {

  int i;

  if (!pj_thread_is_registered()) {
  pj_thread_register("ipjsua", a_thread_desc, &a_thread);
  }

  /* Since iOS requires that the minimum keep alive interval is 600s,

  • application needs to make sure that the account's registration
  • timeout is long enough.
    */

  for (i = 0; i < (int)pjsua_acc_get_count(); ++i) {
  if (pjsua_acc_is_valid(i)) {
  pjsua_acc_set_registration(i, PJ_TRUE);
  }
  }

  pj_thread_sleep(15000);

}

We already enabled background VOIP feature in App's plist and PJSIP for iOS uses the Apple's standard way of background VOIP by registering a socket to be the VOIP socket. What else we need to do could you please explain ?

Hello developer,
