Answer 1

import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    MediaPlayer mp;
    Button one;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.soho);
        one = (Button)this.findViewById(R.id.button1);

        one.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                mp.start();
            }
        });
    }
}

Answer 2

Button button1=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnB1);
button1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v) {
MediaPlayer mp1 = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.b1);
mp1.start();
}
});

Try this i think it will work

Answer 3

Instead of resetting it as proposed by DeathRs:

if (mp.isPlaying()) {
       mp.stop();
       mp.release();
       mp = MediaPlayer.create(context, R.raw.sound);
} mp.start();

we can just reset the MediaPlayer to it's begin using:

if (mp.isPlaying()) {
       mp.seekTo(0)
}

Answer 4

there are some predefined sounds: SHUTTER_CLICK, FOCUS_COMPLETE, START_VIDEO_RECORDING, STOP_VIDEO_RECORDING.

Nice!

MediaActionSound

A class for producing sounds that match those produced by various actions taken by the media and camera APIs. Docs

use like:

fun playBeepSound() {
    val sound = MediaActionSound()
    sound.play(MediaActionSound.START_VIDEO_RECORDING)
}

Answer 5

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    public void clickMe (View view) {

        MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.xxx);
        mp.start();

    }

create a button with a method could be called when the button pressed (onCreate),

then create a variable for (MediaPlayer) class with the path of your file

MediaPlayer mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.xxx);

finally run start method in that class

mp.start();

the file will run when the button pressed, hope this was helpful!

Answer 6

• The audio must be placed in the raw folder, if it doesn't exists, create one.
• The raw folder must be inside the res folder
• The name mustn't have any - or special characters in it.

On your activity, you need to have a object MediaPlayer, inside the onCreate method or the onclick method, you have to initialize the MediaPlayer, like MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.name_of_your_audio_file), then your audio file ir ready to be played with the call for start(), in your case, since you want it to be placed in a button, you'll have to put it inside the onClick method.

Example:

private Button myButton;
private MediaPlayer mp;
@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.myactivity);
        mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.gunshot);

        myButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                mp.start();
            }
        });
}
}
