Playing .mp3 and .wav in Java?

Question

How can I play an .mp3 and a .wav file in my Java application? I am using Swing. I tried looking on the internet, for something like this example:<

Answer 1

I would recommend using the BasicPlayerAPI. It's open source, very simple and it doesn't require JavaFX. http://www.javazoom.net/jlgui/api.html

After downloading and extracting the zip-file one should add the following jar-files to the build path of the project:

• basicplayer3.0.jar
• all the jars from the lib directory (inside BasicPlayer3.0)

Here is a minimalistic usage example:

String songName = "HungryKidsofHungary-ScatteredDiamonds.mp3";
String pathToMp3 = System.getProperty("user.dir") +"/"+ songName;
BasicPlayer player = new BasicPlayer();
try {
    player.open(new URL("file:///" + pathToMp3));
    player.play();
} catch (BasicPlayerException | MalformedURLException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

Required imports:

import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;
import javazoom.jlgui.basicplayer.BasicPlayer;
import javazoom.jlgui.basicplayer.BasicPlayerException;

That's all you need to start playing music. The Player is starting and managing his own playback thread and provides play, pause, resume, stop and seek functionality.

For a more advanced usage you may take a look at the jlGui Music Player. It's an open source WinAmp clone: http://www.javazoom.net/jlgui/jlgui.html

The first class to look at would be PlayerUI (inside the package javazoom.jlgui.player.amp). It demonstrates the advanced features of the BasicPlayer pretty well.

You need to install JMF first (download using this link)

File f = new File("D:/Songs/preview.mp3");
MediaLocator ml = new MediaLocator(f.toURL());
Player p = Manager.createPlayer(ml);
p.start();

don't forget to add JMF jar files

I have other methods for that, the first is :

public static void playAudio(String filePath){

    try{
        InputStream mus = new FileInputStream(new File(filePath));
        AudioStream aud = new AudioStream(mus);
    }catch(Exception e){
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialig(null, "You have an Error");
    }

And the second is :

try{
    JFXPanel x = JFXPanel();
    String u = new File("021.mp3").toURI().toString();
    new MediaPlayer(new Media(u)).play();
} catch(Exception e){
    JOPtionPane.showMessageDialog(null, e);
}

And if we want to make loop to this audio we use this method.

try{
    AudioData d = new AudioStream(new FileInputStream(filePath)).getData();
    ContinuousAudioDataStream s = new ContinuousAudioDataStream(d);
    AudioPlayer.player.start(s);
} catch(Exception ex){
    JOPtionPane.showMessageDialog(null, ex);
}

if we want to stop this loop we add this libreries in the try:

AudioPlayer.player.stop(s);

for this third method we add the folowing imports :

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import sun.audio.AudioData;
import sun.audio.AudioStream;
import sun.audio.ContinuousAudioDataStream;

Using MP3 Decoder/player/converter Maven Dependency.

import javazoom.jl.decoder.JavaLayerException;
import javazoom.jl.player.Player;

import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;

public class PlayAudio{

public static void main(String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException {

    try {
        FileInputStream fileInputStream = new FileInputStream("mp.mp3");
        Player player = new Player((fileInputStream));
        player.play();
        System.out.println("Song is playing");
        while(true){
            System.out.println(player.getPosition());
        }
    }catch (Exception e){
        System.out.println(e);
    }

  }

}

Answer 5

you can play .wav only with java API:

import javax.sound.sampled.AudioInputStream;
import javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem;
import javax.sound.sampled.Clip;

code:

AudioInputStream audioIn = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(MyClazz.class.getResource("music.wav"));
Clip clip = AudioSystem.getClip();
clip.open(audioIn);
clip.start();

And play .mp3 with jLayer

Answer 6

The easiest way I found was to download the JLayer jar file from http://www.javazoom.net/javalayer/sources.html and to add it to the Jar library http://www.wikihow.com/Add-JARs-to-Project-Build-Paths-in-Eclipse-%28Java%29

Here is the code for the class

public class SimplePlayer {

    public SimplePlayer(){

        try{

             FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("File location.");
             Player playMP3 = new Player(fis);

             playMP3.play();

        }  catch(Exception e){
             System.out.println(e);
           }
    } 
}

and here are the imports

import javazoom.jl.player.*;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
