My problem is that I have used the MediaPlayer class in an activity to play music. The music is played online from a link, and I have used the prepareAsync method for audio. At the first time, the opening speed of the activity is very good and the music plays well. But after pressing the back button, and re-entering the activity, the opening speed of the activity becomes very slow. What should be done? Is it beacase of not well releasing the MediaPlayer?
Creating and control the Media player in my code:
` mediaPlayerMain = new MediaPlayer();
mediaPlayerMain.setAudioStreamType(AudioManager.STREAM_MUSIC);
// below line is use to set our url to our media player.
try {
mediaPlayerMain.setDataSource(selectedAudioLink);
// below line is use to prepare our media player.
mediaPlayerMain.prepareAsync();
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
mediaPlayerMain.setOnPreparedListener(new MediaPlayer.OnPreparedListener() {
@Override
public void onPrepared(MediaPlayer mp) {
playFile();
}
});
}
private void playFile(){
// playing
mediaPlayerMain.start();
}
private void pauseFile(){
mediaPlayerMain.pause();
}
`
Stopping the media player in OnBackPressed method in my Activity:
` @Override
public void onBackPressed() {
try {
if (mediaPlayerMain != null) {
if (mediaPlayerMain.isPlaying())
mediaPlayerMain.stop();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
super.onBackPressed();
}`
